To Z or not to Z?
Hey guys I am a newbie to the forum. I was all set to buy a '03-'05 Z coupe thanks to having some questions about tire wear issue answered by members of this forum. However, a wrench has been thrown into my plans. I recently found a '05 Altima SE-R with 29,000 miles on it for sale. Charcoal with black/red leather. 6 speed, all the goodies. Now I'm not sure what to go with. I'm sure considering this is a Z forum you are all partial to the Z, but I wanted your opinion anyway. I love cars and will alter my lifestyle around whatever I get, so the back seat is not a good deciding factor, although it would be convenient. The SE-R is also $4000 cheaper. A great deal actually at $17,000. I am a 23 yr old recent college grad and I need something fitting to pickup semi drunk ATL chicks. Anyway... HELP!

if you want a "Z" with a back seat get a G coupe, or get th 350. thats how i see it, SE-R altima is kinda on the other end of the car spectrum and to me yells im an old family man that needs a family car but i want a sports car but my wife has my ***** in her purse so ill desguise a sports car into a family car and get an altima SE-R. lol

but between the Altima and the Z for girls... get the Z
This is just a guess here but I'd imagine the resell value would be higher for the Z as well

as for the younger group, in my personal opinion, you'll get more respect from other ricers driving a Z than an SE-R
I hate the R on the end. It just makes me think they glued it on there to make it cooler...

I have solved my issue with springs and wider rims and I have 555's
