I had toget my ignition switch changed, the part u put the key into locked up. I took to the dealership it cost me $1200 and a month without my car, also had tranny issues and a broken window another $1600 and month without the car again.) so if you want to spend crazy money and not be able to drive your car for a month at a time go ahead buy one, but I would recommend a 350z or 370z due to the fact there are so many more around parts gotta be cheaper and unless u opt for a srt6 they have a ton more hp
Yea, I had my key lock up like that - cost $90 for a tow home and I fixed it in 90 minutes myself.
And I'm a mechanical near-incompetent! Ya gotta USE THE RESOURCE that this place is!
(See post above for the link) C'mon man! You have 6 posts in all the time you've been here?
You have been missing out - and I'm not sure why.
Also PLEASE BE AWARE that, from all indications, the replacement lock assembly has the same design flaw that the original did! I'd have the modification done ASAP - just print the PDF in the link above and take the car to any mechanic you trust - DO NOT GO TO A DEALER ! Up to two hours labor is all it will cost you.
