Default I'm back in a Z.

After a month of test driving numerous S2000s I just kept finding something wrong with each one of them..... nevermind the complete lack of torque. I couldn't break the tires loose around any turns for the life of me in 2 deg C weather on summer tires nonetheless. Drove some 135s but they just look too plain and I can't get deep dish rims on them which is the only thing I figure would make them look mean and aggressive. Even stepped into an 05 Boxster S but the potential headaches and running costs scared me away. (BTW there's a fellow selling an 05 for $35.5K with a SPOTTLESS undercarriage and I know he's willing to part for $32.5K and the car sounds and drives awesome).

Finally I stumbbled upon an 08 and the new HR engine feels like a V8, it just pulls.... My 03 pales in comparisson. Driving this 350Z made me much more excited than any of the others, unfortunately it didn't have the VDC and was a US car. So I stumbled upon another Z with Brembos, Black exterior, Manual and the HR. Can't wait.

First mod will be the Dual Pop Chargers or equivalent followed by suspension and Work Meister S1s once the tires need replacing. Hopefully that will be it.

s2000 is better for handling
350z is better for straight lines and drifting
