Default Planning to sell my Z..

Hi there I currently own a 04.5 350z touring edition. The reason I am selling or thinking about selling is cause the value on our cars went down so much and i am quite jealous on the newer models.. slightly better... I know that the 370z is coming out and the GTR this year.. I also have a 91 fastback 240sx w/Sr20det swap that is drivable and it is a lot faster then the slow 350 lol.. I'm thinking.. I do want 2 cars that i will keep forever unless someone offers ridiculous amount of money which i have gotten on my 240 but i wanna finish my s15 conversion and 180sx lights and give it a make over. it's my first project car so it's not the money but sentimental. sure I am losing money but I think in the long run I rather save money hook up the 240sx and get a new car later on.. possibly GTR if they continue to sell within 5 years from now. I need opinions

lol i had too many cars.. I am down to 2 cars now.. yikes GTR is nice i wanna lean towards that. white looks so sexy.. looks like ima save up and hook up the 240. Either way i will never buy a 1st year car.. always recalls or TSB.. so save up for a newer model GTR they better upgrade it and make it faster like they did with 350z. anymore opinions?

From personal experience I can tell you that project cars are more fun than almost anything out there, but, if you don't have a reliable daily driver you won't have any fun at all :P
If you're selling your DD at least get a beater that you won't be modding to crap status or have it sitting in your garage in pieces for months waiting for money for repairs and stuff. Unfortunately, a beater is after all, a beater... a new car is nice to have around for its reliability and comfort, but hey, in the end it's up to you man. Good luck with either route you take.

I agree. If you mod an older car, you can make it your own and build it up where it will out perform most (if not all) cars that are stock (for instance a GTR). Not that I wouldn't want one. If you can't have two, then get an older car and mod the heck out of it.

I have a modified 06 Grand Touring roadster, but I am thinking about selling it for a used NSX to mod. But I still have my 97 Honda Civic with 205000 miles on it to commute in.

I wouldn't buy a car for an investment because most cars depreciate....with that being said if the 240 puts a smile on your face than keep it. And there will always be something out bigger,faster and better w/ the current model you have. Just my 2 cents.
