Not Finding Many Used 370z's

indybrett

Hi,

I live in Indianapolis. I'm planning to buy a 370z around the March/April time frame, and would prefer a used one.

Maybe I'm not searching the right car sites, because I'm not finding hardly any used 370z's in my area.

Is this a common thing? Thanks.

spring may be the worst time to look if you're trying to save a buck.

The Nissan 370Z and the Infiniti G37 are wanted vehicles in the market so it is not surprising since a lot of Nissan 370Z enthusiasts keep there vehicles for a long time even 100K+ miles. The Nissan 370Z and Infiniti G37 are reliable vehicles to own and have excellent resale value as well. I could have sold my Z one hundred times over but I choice to keep it. Expand your Nissan 370Z search and you should be able to find one that you like. www.ebaymotors.com www.autotrader.com www.cars.com www.craigslist.org www.autonation.com www.carmax.com www.autolist.com

Carmax and Carvana will both transport cars if you see one far away you want.

Finding a clean one from a private seller could be tough, I ended up having to buy from Carmax and don't regret it. The Nissan dealers suuuuuucked. Carmax actually have a great extended warranty as well (they actually honor it) if you're planning on not going full racecar.

Like everyone above have said, they are out there. Just take your time and what ever you do, don't just settle. Get the one that you want!!

This goes for anything tbh.

I think it was during an April (2016) I was looking at a '10 Sport. I backed out because I thought the dealer was shady with the financing they were arranging, and despite being of the few in the budget, I wasn't convinced it was actually worthwhile.

Fast-forward to June of that same year, I find a '13 Sport Touring in way better condition for 4 grand more — the one I still have now.

There was no way in hell I was ever buying the first one, and that's really the principle. Don't settle. There was no coulda/woulda/shoulda kind of regret walking away from that even though at the time that was the difference between having a Z and no car period. The whole "YOLO" decision is buying such a car in general, but you take your time finding the best version of it.

I have one for sale. A 2010 base coupe with sports package and six speed manual. Also has 36,000 miles on it.

Thanks for the responses.

Autotrader is showing 5 used, within 75 miles of 46143. That's not much. Filtering on manual transmission only gives me 2. This is going to be hard...
Right now I'm just looking. I won't be ready to purchase until early late March or early April.

I agree you should keep your options open and test drive both the automatic and manual transmission Z to see what transmission you can live with driving every day. I recommend checking eBay Motors I have seen a lot of nice Z’s for sale there as of late.

I had been driving a 2016 Miata MX-5 for the last few years. Turned it on from the lease in October. I really do prefer a manual in a sports car, auto for everything else. I will give the auto a try though.

As a transmission technician I give the automatic A7 transmissions in our Z’s credit as they shift very effectively in stock form and are reliable and dependable to use for street or track duty but if you plan on using your Z for heavy track duty if you choose the automatic A7 transmission I highly recommend upgrading it before hand. I have seen the automatic A7 transmissions in our Z’s last 200K+ miles just really depends on how you use your Z and if you service your automatic A7 transmission on time. I have to agree there is nothing like a manual transmission in the Z very enjoying to drive! I would never own a Ford or Mazda again though when they say fix or repair daily they were not kidding.

Not to draw up the manual vs auto argument, but I'd suggest driving both. I was dead set on a manual until I drove the auto. Might open up your options if you reach the same conclusion.
