Nice Z!! It does bother me though that the owner managed to add exhaust, intake, shifter, and not tint the windows

Nice car. I have a torch red one as well with the same mileage, just bought it a few months ago. My paint has the same issues. You can really only see it if you get up close and look for it, I notice mine more on the back/trunk of the car as well. I always notice it more when I wash my car. I wouldn't worry.

Just swapped some of the clutch fluid, I'll do some more next weekend when I'm back from work travel.

Beautiful! Did the 04's come with less badging then the older Z's? I noticed the seats and the mats dont have the Z06 badges on them in your car. Or was this just an option on some cars? Anybody know?

Any recommendations on brake fluid that will stand up to some track driving? Also what coolant and slave cylinder fluid would you guys recommend? I may have all the fluids changed out in a week or two. They all seem ok to me, no burned smell from any of them, oil is brand new so I probably won't do it.
It may be too late but I use ATE TYP200 DOT 4 fluid. I do 10 - 15 track days per year and it serves me well. Good performance and good price. I should mention I have DRM & Quantum brake ducts.

Beautiful Z! Congratulations! 
Mine had heads, cam, intake manifold, Halltech air intake, Kooks longtubes and X-pipe, SLP Loudmouth axleback, black C6Z replica wheels, Lloyd mats, and a recovered console lid with a subdued Z06 emblem when I bought it, but no tint. I threw on a set of stock titanium mufflers to tone it down inside and had it tinted ASAP

the more hardcore you get with pads the more fluid starts to matter.
ate super blue is half the price of motul 600 and a great fluid. typ200 is the same stuff just in amber by the way
price wasn't that far off. 20k would be considered a really good deal, i mean, it's an 04. add in travel and expenses and you're at 21.5 and that's just text book shopping. finding a well taken care of car that hasn't been hammered on is downright difficult with the c5 z06
