I recently leased an 08 Z and right now it has about 2700 mileage on it. My question is, however, is that is it normal for the engine to smell like its burnt after taking the rpm to the rev limiter, say for instance during a quick race? I'm kinda new to having a fun/performance car so i just need some replies on this one. |

Hey there, Just bought a 2005 w/27k mi for 18,5. Just about perfect condition. Ultra yellow metallic. But i'm not sure if it is "Track" edition as advertised. I look around and most track editions have 18" wheels, while mine has 17's and not sure if they are Brembo brakes. Is there a definitive way to find out? Vin #? Thanks for any help. JP

Replying to: jlp68 (Jun 01, 2008 1:51 pm)  Does your car have the spoiler? That was standard on the Track, but optional on the Enthusiast. The other deciding factor is stability control. Enthusiast did not come with that. That would be a switch on your dash .... I forget what the acronym is at the moment ... but traction control, which the enthusiast has, would just be something like "TCS," while the stability is 4 letters, I believe ... maybe someone else can tell you what those are. I hope you didn't pay the extra money for a Track without knowing the truth.

Replying to: qbrozen (Jun 02, 2008 6:54 am) I am pretty sure now that its an Enthusiast. The brakes are not labeled, and it does have Traction Control, but not stability. and found the exact same trim level. Also, it is minus the spoiler. It would've been nice with the little extra, but I am definately happy with the level I have, and leaves a little room for future improvements..  I still think I did get a very good deal for it. Thanks again. JP

Hi, Guys: I had a couple questions for anyone out there that can help. I've been considering a sports car for a long time. I' actually had my mind set on a C5 Corvette for quite a while now. But lately I've seen some 305Z's on the road and took a liking to them. Are they pretty reliable overall? I would be looking for an '04 or '05 most likely. I don't want to spend a fortune. Any opinions anyone has would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help. Steve (Jeepster53  aol.com)

Hi, I am a college student looking into buying a used 350Z (03-05). Currently, I have a mustang but I'm ready for a change. If you would answer my questions below, I would greatly appreciate it. 1. How much does it usually cost to fill up the gas tank at todays current gas prices--$4.00/ gallon? 2. How many gallons of gas does the Z hold? 3. Is it very expensive to take this car to the shop for maintenance, oil changes, etc? Since this is a foreign car, would the techs at Wal-Mart do an oil change or do you have to take it to a Nissan dealer? 4. Are there really alot of blind spots? Are they easy to get used to? 5. What are the Mpg's (hgwy/city) 6. Is it a practical car for a college student who doesn't want to spend alot of money on a car (pmts and up keep)? Any answer to these questions will be greatly appreciated and I look forward to hearing your responses

Replying to: crossfireman3 (Jul 25, 2008 9:46 am) 3. You'll go through alot of tires. You may want to use synthetic oil. So, yes. 4. The blind spots never bothered me. 5. I used to average 25 mpg on premium gas. 6. No. I suggest something much cheaper with better mileage, cheaper parts, fewer speeding tickets, etc. Someone concerned about $$ should NEVER buy a sportscar.
