Default Help me decide
Ok i will be getting my first car soon and have found a 350z for a 13,000 which is a good price. Only thing is I have also found a Chrysler crossfire limited for 2,000 less. I havent driven the 350z but have the crossfire so my question is what is better for a first car? I really like the look of the 350z but I also love the crossfire. I just cant decide, the crossfire had a lot more power than I thought which is important, but I know the z is a little faster. Help?

You DO realize this is a 350Z forum, correct? Take a guess, just a shot in the dark, as to what the answer might be. Then, go to a Crossfire forum and post the same thing, and repeat the exercise. Then, go buy a Honda. You're 16 - the perfect demographic.

I know it is but I just want a good review from owners, I have looked at the crossfire forum and they all love the crossfire thats why I came here. Just an honest review of both cars. Are their any reliability problems with the z?

Why poeple say their more for old poeple? I mean they are not as fast as the 350z but its not all about speed. I would probably get the z its just the high mileage and price.
