im gonna email em and get pics. If that first one turns out like shit this one might be a good alternative.
If you are dead set on a 300zx, go look at that black one. I'm with Mikey, it's a way better looking car. Shit, I'll drive you to Luray tonight.

Forrealz? I would love to go look at it no joke! And I know they might have some problems but I fell in love with the 300zx when I first saw it! Whats your number Jake? And thanks for all the concern guys, If anyone finds something good feel free to post it here!

Jake's awesome and will take me. This guy just needs to cut his phone off! I hope hes at work and gets off soon cause I can't wait to see it!! I just like the mods on the white one(exhaust, dual CIA's, strut bars and short shifter.) Rather have the black one cause its clean and looks very well taken care of and ill get mods eventually if I get it. :twisted:
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - JustinG - 09-13-2010
strut bars and short shifter on ebay for like $50 bucks each im sure, CAIs are over rated, and the exhaust well, you should do that for sure.
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - caa337 - 09-13-2010
Depends, the rear is more expensive but im gonna go spend hours looking up mods know and I don't even have the car yet! lol. (Done that a few months ago too, haha)
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - JustinG - 09-13-2010
Get used to it.......
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - ViPER1313 - 09-13-2010
Again, not trying to be a downer, but please maintenance before mods.... Also something to think about - if you want to mod the car, it will be much cheaper in the long run to buy a car that has already been modded and well maintained, rather than trying to modify the car yourself and catching up on all the maintenance.
I can't tell you how many people have bought a sub $5000 car, thrown a ton of mods at it, then complained that it always breaks down, cost them well over 5g and is still a POS (when they could have spent 5g initially and bought one with 10g of mods, prestine paint and all maintenance done.)

Don't listen to all these haters and debbie downers. Buy it, wash it, beat it like it owes you money, blow it up, park it in your front yard, buy another one. Rinse and repeat.
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - TorinoCobra070 - 09-13-2010
I like the black one about 3050391009817.38857103948 x 10^24 more than the first one you posted :thumbup: Good luck.
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - caa337 - 09-13-2010
Thanks. And modding wouldn't be super serious that quick, like building it up slowly after serious stuff is taken care of but im going to question this person and do a good run through of the car with my dad. But thanks for all the advice.
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - caa337 - 09-13-2010

Bleh I want a 300zx more than a teg but its grabbing my attention some since it is a 2000. Gah!
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - JustinG - 09-13-2010
anyone who says "its very fast" you probably want to avoid their car, unless you know them or know someone who knows them
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - Dave - 09-13-2010
I'll second all the votes for the black vs. the white one. Not that you need it...
Also, don't hate on the FWD. An SE-R handles more neutrally and is more nimble than a heavy RWD 300zx, and a Bluebird tells me it can go just as fast in a straight line. It may not make the right sounds or be as pretty, but will be more forgiving in the twisty bits and much more practical.
But you're in college, so who cares about any of that shit

Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - caa337 - 09-13-2010
Haha, they both look good its just having to rev high for power and be one of the many tegs around here or get a 300zx and be alot rarer. Its a hard choice but im sure im gonna go with the 300zx, hopefully the guy's phone will be on and I can call him so I can see it....
Are you talking about a nissan altima SE-R? Isn't it alot newer though
?
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - Mike - 09-14-2010
sentra se-r circa early 90s.

NUUUU I just called the guy and the black 300zx is gone! whyyyy!
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - Mike - 09-14-2010
because it didn't suck. the white one will be available for a loooong time.
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - caa337 - 09-14-2010
I wanted the black one =/ Oh well theres a dark blue one in around richmond that im gonna talk to the guy about and keep looking around for more 300zx's.
Re: Should be buying this in 2 weeks! - CaptainHenreh - 09-14-2010
B13 SE-R would have been ballin' in college. For your budget you can get a REALLY nice one.

Stay....away....
Although it is very tempting and practical and fun it will get broken into and/or stolen. Go ahead....ask me how I know.
