Unmolested Z
Picked this Z up today from Toledo, OH... One owner with 22K miles...
Nothing has been modified from the day it left the Factory in February 2002..... Mod Red guts......$25K
May not be an excellent price but, loving it!!

Beautiful and for a clean car with super lower miles like that, it's a great price.

that was right at going rate
real rare to see those 20k mile cars sell at lower end deals. people know what they have and usually don't care
i think 25 was about right if it's been well preserved and appears a 9 to 9.5 on the 10 scale

Mine was like that when I bought it 2 yrs ago, only thing it had was Clear Bra all over. 17K and got it for $24.5. Been busy slowly modding it bit by bit...
Nice combo, enjoy her!

You did not pay too much with those miles. About what I paid for mine with 20K a year ago.

Interior has bling--but fair price for a car that has many miles left-kick it to 6500 rpm and see how it runs-

Exactly my plans...
Paint finish has many fine angel hair like scratchings.... As if the original owner has used the wrong wash/drying towels... But headed to Carlisle and find Adam from Adams polishes for some advice.....

I was thinking the same.
I enjoy mine way more now than the day I bought it new 9.5 yrs ago.
