My Next Car

Hopefully, I'll be able to get one a year or two after the initial release, I think they are all pretty much spoken for up to then. Anyone else thinking about skipping the Z33 altogether?

I love Nissan... but I could think of about 15-20 other cars I'd buy before the new GTR, for the same price.

15-20?

seriously that many make the list first?


I can think of a couple that I would like, the new BMW M3, a C-6 or perhaps a newish Viper, But that's pretty much my list (i'd have to drive them all first and then make up my mind)

My new car fund has just over 12K$ in it and as long as my Z just keeps breaking small parts I should have 20k$ to put down on a new car next year. Hopefully that'll keep the payments closer to 600$

big 2nd. like maybe at least one example of each Z generation, except of course the z33. maybe a g35 too for a daily.

yup a V-8

its a 4 litter all aluminum v-8 that is 100 lbs. lighter than the old straight 6 with 414 hp and 294 torque, would make an excellent grocery getter, I mean, at least...for a Beamer.

Has anyone noticed how similar the new Altima coupe looks compared to the Z33?




Sorta reminds me of a cross between an Acura RSX and a Z33...
