I haven't picked it up yet, just won it on e-bay about 2 hours ago! I have to get it from Philadelphia, PA back to Pittsburgh, PA within 7 days or I might have it shipped on a carrier, not sure on the details yet! I will deff be supporting the 5th gens crowd when I get it......

it has 139K miles on it and I got it for a pretty decent price also. I just never bought a car online before, so I don't know what I'm getting myself into with it?

My girlfriend's parents bought a Sequoia on ebay. They live in Iowa and bought a one way plane ticket to Florida where the truck was at. It turned out to be a great buy and drove it all the way home. I hope the same luck for you!

I love those black Z's! I'd trade my 5th gen LS for a black Z34 any day.

thanks guys, I hope it does me good for a kinda winter car and yes Justin, I have 3 sets of wheels now! I will use the ones in my current sig pic that already have snow tires mounted on them.

zzapultimate, that is great news on the craigslist purchase. The person that was selling this Z34 had a ton of great feedback, most of his cars were higher mile cars and the vehicle check on the Z was kinda spotless.......

edit: Justin, the car is about 5-6 hours away from me, it's kinda in Mike (chibis) area.

Chris, if you still have my number from the Nats, let me know when you go to pick it up (if you do that method)

Just keep me in the loop (email me if you want) maybe we can meet up. Or if you fly in to drive back, I can pick you up or something. Talk to me if you have any plans
