I found "OURZ", an '07 350Z roadster, through autotrader.com. I thought I did well buying the car from an individual in New Hampshire. There was some negotiation but not a lot. The seller was reluctant to accept an out of state bank check but with a way to verify the validity of the check, he was satisfied. Having only 6000 miles, the car's history was brief and well documented.

My brother purchased his '06 Z through Ebay. He too is very satisfied with his Z. I don't think I would do it that way but if you think about it... you are still dealing with a stranger.

Good luck with your quest.

I taught my daughter to drive stick years ago. It was "quite" an experience. Find a non-relative to teach you.

Thanks for all the advice! I've been using Autotrader and Craigslist a lot, but I'm aiming to deal with a dealer before I go with a private party; the dealer could potentially make unloading my current car much easier in the process.

But, as for stickshift lessons - anybody feel like helping me out this week, some evening?

No problem to me. It's about an hour's drive down to Fairfield from here, and I get out of work at 3:30. I can definitely be down there after six, and I don't mind making the drive at all.
