Buying new car. Just test drove 350Z
I am in the market for a new car. I wanted to originally test drive some cars before making a purchase, e.g., 350Z, S2000, Evo, etc. I just test drove a new 2007 base model 6MT 350Z an hour ago. All I can say is WOW! I never had a "car" grin like this before except when I test drove and bought my 2000 Intergra Type-R (I miss that car). Now I know why you guys are hooked. My salesperson is crunching the numbers as I speak.
Take care,
Mike.

Don't mention the ITR! I just found an 01 with very low miles for only 16k and WAS considering it for about an hour.

Where? I had a 95 EG with B18C5 Swap, full Type-R suspension conversion (Even the rack and pinion). I miss it bad. I was looking for another ITR as a possible project car. Most that I have found were beaten or riced out.

Wow not too bad. Phoenix Yellow too. I know these cars like the back of my hand. It would be cool to get my hands on one again. Thanks!

Hell I had a 92 eg and I miss that thing to death. I was looking forward to getting into a full project car but after I realized how bad of a condition it was in, I had to let it go.
Besides when you have a car that had damn near 50+ lbs. of bondo it seemed like a helpless cause (I should of done a closer inspection on the car before buying it )

At first I read this and thought you were just kinda being sarcastic LOL.
Then for kicks I divided the amount I have spent on mods and labor and things I did and then re-did and divided by 15 months that I have had my Z and WOW it was like $566 a month in mods.
Thank God I'm done modding

Even though the ITR is not as powerful as the Z, there's something about it that makes it fun to drive. I don't know if it's the balance of the car or the combination of high reving engine with the smooth shifting tranny.

Well I still have my wannabe ITR (in sig). It was supposed to be my daily but the Z is so much nicer. I find myself always driving the Z instead! Damn that gas milage though
