I cant decide if I want to use my tax money and some other money I have saved to:

A: Fix my Greddy sides, buy Nismo V1 front bumper with clear reflectors, and add Borla exhaust..

or..

B: save the approx. 2k+ and use it for a down payment on a used Sentra for a beater to save the mileage and wear on my car for trips and mall and back trips...

 

Invest it. it will make you more money in the long run

But if your bent on spending it, look at the price difference in tax/tag/insur/fuel econ and all the other stuff that goes with a car and you might realize a beter will take more money then just driving the Z. If that's the case then just do the upgrades you want

 

The cost of the beater + insurance + maintenance is going to outweigh the mpg/wear and tear. Its not like you have a ferrari, just mod it and drive it till it breaks.

 

i would say it all depends on how much do u really care about the car...I would personally get a beater for many reasons...its a lot easier to maintain a nice car if u have a beater because ur not going to use it when its raining. In addition to this, just in case u want to do something, u dont have to rush it to get it done on the same day because u dont have another car..."Speed is not as good as accuracy when working on cars" the only downside on owning 2 cars will be the insurance because ur paying 2 cars as supposed to 1...hope this helps u somehow...

 

im 21 and my insurance now is only 100 a month..how much would a sentra really effect it lol i can have the sentra paid off in less then 10 months and saving the miles on my z and not getting it beat up is worth that much to me..

 

Id get a beater. IT feels great to be able to have options when going to the super market with the ghetto parking or if it rains and you jsut washed your car. Plus, when you're working on it, you dont have to worry about putting it back together in time for work.

 

to the top!

 

go with the beater man...btw did you ever install that wing I sold you?

 

ExxonMobil stock.

 

yes I installed it 2 weeks after I got it from ya..it looks good!

 

Donate it to charity.

 

+1

 

+1 for the beater..better to have options

 

thats what i was thinking
