it's about 1 notch above a Joe's Autos...it seemed to me like a place that sells old Benzes and Ferraris to drug dealers...but my impressions are that they took it on a trade from someone who treated it relatively well. As for what I want in a Z...I prefer stock because it means (hopefully) that nobody has raced and beaten the hell out of it, and also because I prefer it to a 900HP pink and blue beast on 22"s. It is such a beautiful car on it's own, to me.
