Repairable, Salvage and Damaged Nissan 370z for Sale
Showing results 1 - 24 of 29
29 Nissan 370Z lots for sale across 24+ Copart locations — model years 2009–2020, avg. mileage 83,000 mi. 24% clean title, 69% salvage; Front End is the top damage (45%). Bids start at $650, and recent Nissans sold for a median winning bid around $1,750 before fees across the make — a straight, stock 370Z lands well above that.
The 370Z ran as a single generation from 2009 to 2020, so the pool in Nissan's auction lineup is one car in different years — coupes mostly, with the 2010–2019 roadster mixed in. Only a handful trade here in a given year, too few to set a model price. Across the make a recent Nissan sold for a median winning bid near $1,750 before fees, and a straight 370Z clears that comfortably, because the people bidding on one are enthusiasts rather than commuters. Rear and side hits dominate — these cars get spun — and theft recoveries turn up with gutted interiors. Most stay in the US, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
Every 370Z runs the 3.7 VQ37VHR, a strong engine with two things worth a look. Oil temperature is the first: cars without the factory oil cooler cook it on a track day, so a lot with lapping history deserves a compression check. High-mile timing-chain rattle is the second. The six-speed manual's weak point is the concentric slave cylinder inside the bellhousing, and a soft pedal in the walk-around video means a transmission-out job; the seven-speed automatic is the easier one to live with. Hood, doors and hatch are aluminum, so a light front hit costs more to panel than on a steel sedan, and the shop has to pull aluminum. On any side hit, study the rear quarter and the rear subframe, since that's where a spin loads up. Nismo cars carry the 350-hp tune, the body kit and the Recaro seats — the kit alone costs real money, so confirm it's on the lot. Modified cars are normal here. A cage, coilovers and a tune are not defects, but a stripped interior makes it a track project, not a rebuild. When the shell is bent, the non-repairable 370Z lots go cheap for the VQ, the gearbox and the seats, each of which sells on its own.
Buying is quick: register free — no dealer license — set a maximum bid and the system bids up to that cap, or take a car at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
Note: ACV and damage data come from the original auction listing. Always check the condition and title yourself before you bid.
FAQ
What condition are these 370Zs in?
About 29 lots, 69% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Side and rear hits lead, with theft recoveries close behind, and mileage averages about 83,000. Most are the 370Z coupe; the roadster shows up in smaller numbers.
Is a salvage 370Z worth buying?
Often yes on a straight shell with an untouched VQ37. There's no model price to lean on — too few sell — but recent Nissans sold for a median winning bid around $1,750 before fees across the make, and a repairable 370Z runs well above that. A bent rear subframe, a stripped interior or a cooked engine is where the math stops working.
What should I check before bidding?
Rear quarters and the rear subframe on any side hit, then the front rails on a front hit — the aluminum hood and doors need a shop that welds aluminum. On manuals, look for a soft clutch pedal in the video; that's the slave cylinder. Check for track history and cross-check the title brand against the photos.
Can I insure and register a salvage 370Z?
Only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection — then most insurers will cover it, just not the company that totaled it. While it's salvage-titled it can't be road-registered. Sports cars draw extra scrutiny from some carriers, so check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
How do I check a 370Z's history before bidding?
Every lot shows the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report for prior accidents, mileage and title events before you commit — a theft-recovery brand or a prior salvage title changes what the car is worth rebuilt.
What are good alternatives to the 370Z?
The older 350Z is the cheaper way into the same layout, and the Infiniti G37 shares the engine with a back seat. Cross-shopping rear-drive coupes, the Ford Mustang shows up in far bigger numbers.
