There are quite a few nice Z's on this forum for sale. And with that list... that is a bunch of mods to take over on.

Oh and employee car? Good chance they drove it like they stole it.
I am trying to stay at the 20k mark and I haven't really seen any on here for that cheap. The auto check came out perfectly clean with the 1 owner but I was thinking the same about the mods and about them driving it like they stole it. I am going to talk with him later tonight but as most of you have commented it might be safer to walk away. When it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Don't be in a rush to buy. Take your time and find something that you are 100% comfortable with. As others have stated, have you ever rented a car before? I have and I sure as hell would NEVER buy a vehicle that was a rental at any point in it's life. I would consider this one a rental too as its just some random shop employee driving it. The person has no reason to NOT beat the piss out of it all day, everyday. I would and I suspect most others would too.

Sounds like you are on the right track of thinking with "...if its too good to be true..."
