Good points here Justin one thing to remember though 370Z or any Nissan z cars in Ontario tend to rust prematurely due to the rock salt that is used on the roads in the winter check the undercarriage very closely along the frame rails and areas where rocksalt will sit one area that will rust it will be the dogleg area and front subrails

Love the advise.
I would love to buy a heavily modified Z Since u can get the upgraded oil pan turbos exahust clutch blow off vales etc. Worst thing is if the engine blows just rebuild it reforge pistons etc still money ahead if u buy it all yourself. I disagree with the warranty argument. If u are buying a used 5 + year old car there is no warranty lmao. Most powertrain warranties are under 60k miles etc.

[@W3STCOAST23]

JonnyFTW if you live in the US, go to your state's DMV website and search up the presumptive value of the vehicle using its VIN and mileage. This will give you an idea on how much it's valued and whether the listed pricing is fair or overpriced. Most 370z here in Texas are valued around $20k with only 10k miles used

I would like to put some numbers from my own 0-60 tests for your reference. 2017 GSF(7K miles) = 4.93, 2007 G35S (112K miles, 80% local) = 5.05, 2019 Q60 3.0t(300hp, 6K miles) = 5.25, 2014 Q50 3.7(6K miles) = 5.38, 2010 M35X(30K miles) = 5.82. All the tested cars were stock and the tests were done in the same location and similar weather and condition with iphone DYNOLICIOUS. I think these cars may not look good in the beginning but they will do much better when they are getting old. I also expect my GSF will age even better than my old G because of Toyota > Nissan...
By the way I own GSF, G35S and M35X currently. Believe it or not. So far almost all the parts in my OLD G are still original factory parts except maintenance items. It just keeps running faster STRANGELY.
In addition, my old G was a used auction car when I bought it 9 years ago. Maybe I should try a Q50 used RENTAL car next time when my G dies (if it will die)...

[@chrismcgregor4112]

is there a difference between the old 370z base models and the new ones ? aside from the oil cooler . thinking of getting one!!

[@leemizrahi5977]

Hey if you what to see a difference u need to try the nismo complete different car better handling and revs slightly higher and most importantly feels quicker .
There is a review online where a nismo is smashing a regular z face in on track by over 3.5 secs in the track world that is huge which shows you what talent a nismo has.
I have a 2017 pearl white nismo after having had a stage 2 bmw 335 and jaguar XF s and omg it would smash both those cars faces in .

[@alienpoker]

Got recommended on this video. Most of this review is just general nonsense. Don’t worry about the stock oil cooler, buy the Z1 Stillen oil cooler kit. So you CAN buy 2010+ 370Z with low milage and good condition. He skips the real items to worry about on these cars.
