Beautiful cars !!!! Wish I lived in Australia !!! Hate to imagine shipping to Florida !!!! Right hand drive ????

Those are both very nice looking Zs. I assume you are selling the stocker in the foreground?

Yea, nice cars. The price for the one you are selling is pretty good for the AUS economy (where cars are at least twice the US).

Thanks guys. Yer it is the car in the foreground I'm selling. Unfortunately money and space has become an issue with the upcoming purchase of a new home so I made it a good price to get a quick sales. Actually I'm picking up the money for the car this morning as it sold within 30 minutes of advertising, but it'll go to a good home thats here in Melbourne.

Im not suprised, looks like an absolute bargain at that price!

What does that figure out to in US dollars? Anyone?

[Mike B]

$7900 Aus converts to $5888 US. Sounds like a great deal. No wonder it sold in 30 minutes.

Hi Mike (everyone):
I'm not sure I understand that statement - "where cars as at least twice the U.S.".

The car sold - sold for the same amount $5888.00 USD. Here or there it was the same price.

If anything the car sold well below the market here in Florida, where a Left Hand Drive model in that condition would sell pretty quickly for around $8,500.00 to $12,000.00 (depending on a number of quality issues etc).

I would have expected that car to sell for closer to $8K USD in Australia given other sales reports over the past few years.

Let's say a new 350Z is $35K USD here - it's about the same in Australia isn't it?

A new 350Z in Australia is AU$59,990. Thats for the touring model, which is the lowest spec 350Z available for sale in Austrailia. We dont get the 2 cheapo low spec base models offered in the USA.

Judging by the two recalls that have captured my Z33 you wouldn't be missing much!? The latest is a gas tank filler hose prone to cracking which involves dropping the entire rear suspension, driveshaft, and exhaust from the catalytic converter. Then there's the mainshaft noise coming from the transmission which began at 8k miles.

I like the car but damn between the tire recall and this latest gas tank fiasco not to mention the noisy transmission I think there are better made cars on the market.

Yer the S30!
