- Is the Nissan 350Z junk?
I don’t think so, I just think it’s going to be few more years before they gain value. What are your thoughts?

When do you think the 350Z will start to appreciate in value? The next 5 years? 10+? What are your thoughts.
Definitely in the next 5 to 6 years it will appreciate. I have a 08 z myself and I barely see any clean examples like yours and mines. The mods I have are majority for the suspension, brakes, wheels and tires. The problem is also like you said,people are cheap. They don't want to spend the money to modify something correctly or do research on it. It's not just a nissan thing, but Infiniti as well (own a well modified 18 q50) and bmw (g80 m3). No matter the platform ppl just are just cheap or have no knowledge.
I don't think you can really escape it unless you start talking about high end cars 150k plus category.
@@antjr971 spot on man💯 Thank You 🙏
The funny thing is, that they already appreciated quite a bit here in Germany. A decent one costs around 15k Euro and most of the time it is the 280 hp version
@@derkritiker7598 Cool🤘 I didn’t know that.
Yea just like 240z
People said the same about 240’s. Now clean stock examples are the most desirable. Fetching 20-30k
@@Torresmeza9 💯💯
These look nowhere near as cool
@@Toyota4Lifethat is so cap. The Z has one of the most timeless designs in automotive history. & I’m not just fanboying. You just lack proper taste.
Yep people also said the same thing about 280ZX and they are going up in value also

I’ve had my Z for 7 yrs (DE too) been such an awesome daily driver , no issues

I drive a 07 350z 6mt completely stock. It's a wonderful sports car. I love it
@@dflet03 NICE! great year!
These cars will go the way of the s13 so get one while you can. Also, a 300zx sold for 135k 2 years ago on BAT. Crazy
💯🤘
Thanks for the proper thoughts ;) Now, I own a perfect 2006 Z convertible, a US import with only 21000 miles on the clock and it's a future Youngtimer.
@@McAve07 awesome 👏
Keep these vids going. I plan on holding on to my Z and praying it goes up in value. I couldn't afford the 300ZX when I was younger so ended up with my 350Z and enjoying it!!
@@VQDE_RobLee Thanks man! I appreciate it. 💯
I swear the 350z WILL hit current S chassis prices in about 5 or so years. It’s hard to find one as it is that’s clean and never been to an intersection takeover unless it’s a Convertible or Automatic (sometimes both) without spending less than 10k.

NFSU2 nostalgia, Rachel's mod in real life are the rarest.
@@RedzuanCiLz91 🦾🦾
Historically every Z model becomes a collector car after the 20th year of it’s last generation’s final trim model is produced and sold by the manufacture… this would mean around the year 2029 a stock clean running and UNMODIFIED 350Z is going to be sought after and priced as a classic car
🤘💯
value is somewhat subjective, a stock 350z is already almost a collectors car
@@Donovan-p5l 💯💯
No it isn't. The 350z will always be a budget sports car and there's too many of them to be a Collector's car. Maybe the Nismo version which is rare.
@@sugerhitman1295 try to find a bone stock 350z with a track pack with low miles/kms for a reasonable price. You cant
@@zweetreet1505 You can get that for 20k. Look I have a Z, but a Collector car it will never be...Too many out there.
Wow didnt know the low price mrket val for the 350z.....what a great car for the price.
The 350zs all do NOT need any mods whatsoever just FINE stock
@@ezzzzrrrs7646 💯 Agree
Fun fact. The 350z cluster is slightly angled so it points towards the drivers rear wheel for some reason
@@blackwolfthedragonmaster I didn’t know that…🤘
I bought one in 2003. She was stunning compared to almost every car of the time. I would get waved and smiles and heads would turn. Then around 2010/11 they started dropping in price and the Rif Raf got a hold of them. People forget how stunning the car was, how awesome it was. Time goes by and all we see now is the junk Z’s everywhere. I still have mine in the garage. I still remember when my Z was prime and I was lucky enough to be a young dude to have such a great car. I have a connection with it and don’t think I’ll ever sell it.
@@Adrian-op5ni People forget how much the 350Z stood out back in 03, and the performance especially the handling was excellent for its time. Do you still have “The Run” dvd that came with it?
@@PhilipTamorria I’ve seen Run many times but never owned it. I still from time to time will check out some of the vintage ads on TH-cam. One called no words or stunning or something along those lines is one I love to watch from time to time. It’s a photo collage of the Z around a track. Some of the first shots I ever saw of the Z. You should look it up. Btw your Z is fucking clean man. Awesome.
@@Adrian-op5ni Thanks man! I appreciate it. I thought Nissan gave it to new customers in 03 & 04 but I could be wrong. 🤘🤘
@@PhilipTamorria I actually remember being butthurt about not getting the DVD when I found out they were handing them out. I bought it brand new off the lot so I was pissed. By the way the 350z video is called “Words Fail”
@@Adrian-op5ni I’ll check it out man, thanks !
I own a mechanically stock version (other than the brakes) with some tasteful cosmetic mods and I cant go anywhere without people complimenting the car and mine has definitely appreciated in value since I found it in a barn 5 years ago. Ive been offered well over what KBB says its worth and that itself has gone up 50% Id say.
im also a mechanic and this is one of the most reliable cars ive ever owned. I daily mine and I love it. I bought it to flip it but I couldnt let it go. The interior is not ideal but there are workarounds. I covered all the painted parts with vinyl ( I also used to tint windows) and it looks great and will hold up
Very cool! I love these cars so I totally get why you can’t let it go. It’s great to have a fun car that looks great and doesn’t break the bank.
I own a 370 so i'm bias, but the 350 grew on me years ago once my taste started to mature. The 350 will forever be a classic. Personally I don't usually love round cars, but for some reason the 350 and GT3 RS just got me by the neck. I like the 370 more though because of it's front end, minor updates to it's styling and interior. My only regret is taking off the stock shift knob because it honestly felt so good to shift but ill probably get another one. I plan to single turbo it one day. Taking a lot longer than expected. But Im going to keep the outside of the car completely stock.
@@CforClairvoyant 🙏🙏

@@PerkasetPXPodcast 😂😂
this car is the new old 240sx. this and g35 are solid cars if you want +2. fastback, 2 door coupe, 250+hp, rwd, what more can you ask for?
but the rare ones are probably gonna be the HR versions.
@@MouseCIick 🤘🤘
350z 2007-2008 will be worth more and will be a collectors car. Especially the nismos since nowadays they’re even hard to find any HR z that isn’t fucked with and is stock
@@ronaldcrisosto 🦾🦾
Mine completely stock 07 love mine always get compliments
@@Charles-jo8ub 💯🤘
Pretty much any clean, low mileage, well spec'd, manual transmission 2000s car is guaranteed to appreciate in the coming decade. For the Z, it will be the later hardtops with the HR motor, and of course the Nismo. Other cars in the same boat will be manual BMW E46 330ci, E90 335i, Subaru STI, Golf R32, Audi TT, early 5th gen Camaro SS, G35, Cobalt SS, CTS-V, SN95 Cobra, etc. As long as they have a stick, the nostalgia prices are gonna hit soon and make us all wish we had bought one (or six) today.
🤘💯
This is a great video that sums up the state of the 350z. I've owned 5 Z-cars, including 2 350zs (05, 07). They were very reliable and durable, and super fun to drive. I also had a 370z, which I see as a slightly leaner, meaner 350z. Right now I have a 2024 Z Performance M/T. It's my favorite so far.
@@hartsickdisciple Very cool man! I haven’t driven the new Z yet but I imagine it’s a lot of fun. Plenty of power for sure. 💯🙏
Might not be collectors car but NEVER junk.
@@kennyphun1946 💯💯
Good video man. I respect the 350Z a lot. I've had a few Nissan's, both Skyline's and Silvia's, and currently own a MK4 Supra NA that I want to build. The 350Z is worth a lot less than my MK4 Supra and stock vs stock they're faster. Hopefully I'll turbo my Supra one day but the bang for your buck with the 350Z is still there, especially here in the UK.
@@JordieMotive97 Great cars man! Very cool! And Thank You!
In europe u can't see any :d so here is already its a collector car!
🤘🤘
I got a 04 350z DE. Only added mishimoto parts to keep the engine cool, a starry sky alcantara roof, and some nicer looking rims but the rest is as stock as it can be. I doubt I will ever change the actual exterior other than maybe new headlights
@@yukariVODs Nice! 💯💯
A 350Z with the HR Motors will be very valuable one day
@@timsgta 🤘🤘
People only deem 350z’s cool when they’re fast. Most of the time they’re looked at as a car for immature people, and the G35 almost hit that same status thanks to people doing donuts at todays meets. If they weren’t so cheap today, then they probably wouldn’t be looked at this way. But in about 10 years when there are far less, they’ll be thought of highly!
@@DewanGreene 🤘🤘
Been watching your videos. Not sure how the algo sent them to me but they’re enjoyable
@@eyeandmind Thanks 🙏 I appreciate it! I’ve been trying to get this channel off the ground for a while so I definitely appreciate the support 💯💯
The bmw z4 of the same age is a bargain right now too and just as fun with a straight six engine. I should know I’ve had 4 😂
@@tayloryeates9484 Those are cool. 💯
Well, but on my own I never place any cheap part on it(TOMEI ECU, enlarge throttle system, spacer for intake manifolds, AP 6/4 kit, FGK exhaust, TM works ignition system, CUSCO head bar n NISMO suspension…, outlook in DO-LUCK aero kit with WORKS S1 rim, BRIDE full set seat), cheap look ? I don’t think so 😂
@@andrewleung9039 🤘💯
Personally, it's a classic car. There is the Z legacy. The performance, and If you own one that is tastefully modded, it, it will retain its value. I do agree I see less and less of the car, people stop me all the time complimenting the car. I have the 370z.
Love the 370 too!
May not be but I love my 370 and baby her
@@joshuasutton4043 The 370 is great!
@@PhilipTamorria yes it is mines a roadster with the splitter and spoiler
@@joshuasutton4043 nice!
i don´t like this plastic 350Z with bored engine, my 1987 nissan bluebird turbo with hybrid turbo Garret T25, intercooler and 205 hp. destroys it in acceleration and interior quality. The only good thing about the 350z is the rigid chasis, perfect base for track, but nothing more.. A lot of people turbo it because it´s a bored car, that´s why they are cheap and no-collector car in my opinion. Nice video dude
@@Big1_ ok 👍
350z was my dream car when I was a kid.

I don't see a lot for sale, some, but not a lot
@@2DAYwithPJ 🤘🤘
The fanbase definitely ruined the reputation of these. It certainly made me hate 350s when I was younger. If you ignore the community you can really appreciate this car for what it is.
It’s hard to say where the market is going to go. I imagine it’ll look something similar to the S Chassis and the 350 is better in every way imo. I commented before about me picking up a low mileage base 2004. It fell through and I found an even lower mileage ‘08 HR Grand Touring with 16k miles. Picking it up in a week and got a great deal on it. A few years we’ll see.
@@beniciobaeza Enjoy your Grand Touring! Great pickup 💯💯
The 350z NISMO will be a collectible, not the DE
@@Technoirz it’s not that big of a difference in todays world…
@@PhilipTamorria i used drive a NISMO#238, at the time there were 3 in Massachusetts, you will see a half a million car, but not a 350z nismo,, you mentioned nostalgia most people like my self used to mod these cars in NFS Forza or Grand turismo, yes the HR is a bit faster but you can tell the difference when the suspension was assembled and welded in Japan, unlike most of the regular z’s
@@Technoirz🤘🤘
As I've commented before, my unmolested '03 Redline Track is nearly identical to yours, but around 53K miles, still low all things considered. It may not garner the same attention of a Porsche, but who cares? Will it go up in price, probably at some point.
But: isn't it nice having a car you can drive and enjoy without worrying that every additional mile and every unfortunate chip from road debris is depleting its value? These cars were meant to be enjoyed. Tell that to the Corvette owners that love to brag about their low mileage because they don't drive them (Disclaimer: I like Vette's. Not hating on Vette's or all owners, just the ones who are saving their cars for the next guy).
@@primaltone Absolutely, driving it and not having to worry about insane maintenance costs or not being able to find a part like potentially with a Porsche. 53 thousand is definitely low for a 20 year old car.
I’m really happy I have one!
@@Axe_z33 Me too!
its already a collector car clean ones are 11k+ and only goin up and they are 20 years old now

I “modded” my 370z by keeping it washed n ceramic coated. It’s fun watching people short circuiting when they see a clean car 🤣

And yeah - $1700 for a proper fast intentions cf exhaust
@@07wrxtr1 I get it! A friend of mine who’s not a car guy got a new car and couldn’t understand how my older car was cleaner than his. 😂

@@jamesgonzales6086 💯🤘
dude is talking about 14-18k like that’s cheap, a cheap car is sub 10k for a clean example. its overpriced in my opinion for its age. i love the z but its more expensive than it should be
@@21PHAZES Depends on how clean we are talking, and it’s definitely not over priced, especially when you factor in the drift tax, the fact that the manual gearbox is dying and inflation. The average price of a new vehicle is around $47,000, so yeah, I’d say 14-18k isn’t a lot of money in today’s world.
@@PhilipTamorria exactly drift tax is dumb, pretty much makes any rwd sports car over prices
@@21PHAZES 🤘🤘
I like that it's not a collector car. I prefer it being a niche car. These people that make those bad mods eventually sell those cars. It's just a fad to most of them.
Keep in mind drifters are using the 350z now and wrecking them. That will effect prices in the future.
@@jasongotshadowbanned True! Good points!
the original 350z track is going to be a collectors car, its iconic. If its clean and has decent mileage it will command a high price. i still think of gran turismo 3 every time i see one, and that nostalgia will absolutely cause the value to rise eventually.
i agree tho, the walmart builds are horrendous, see people doing walmart builds on brand new BRZ/GR86 which is one of the best looking cars on the road today, just destroying them.
