I think he meant to say

"Would it be worth buying a used 370z that comes with mods? These mods include exhaust, tune, gen 3 intake, pulleys, and hfc. Or would these mods cause problems soon, because the car has 20k miles on it already. "

Thanks for the translation, did you use Google translator or did you learn the language in school?

Really, the person you buy it from would matter more to me. I would rather buy a car from some OCD freak like myself who does tasteful mods than from someone who keeps the car stock and doesn't care about it and bounces off the rev-limiter doing doughnuts in the parkinglot.

Is this guy drunk?

Edit: Sorry I had the tab open from a couple of hours ago. Way late to this one.

Yeah, with a modded car it's all about the seller. Find out who did the work (what shop, or the owner themselves), what the goal was, get a good look at the car. Try to figure out if the car's been abused (but that's just standard advice for any used car).
