I feel you. I love my Z but since getting my Ford Raptor I haven't driven the poor girl much because I love that freakin truck. Thought about selling it for a quick minute, but it's paid off and modified perfect to my taste so I figure **** it just keep it.

Here she is tucked in the garage with Charlie keeping an eye on her.

I've been driving my X around and you're right, I should just keep the Z, it's paid off and put together to my liking. Maybe pick up a cheap project car on the side to keep me busy, that won't require my wife to sign off. lol Something euro and convertible, maybe the previous gen Z4.

Thanks Stogey I consider yours one of the best here man. Only a select few on this forum still do it right.

Hey Sparco IIRC your X is pretty sick too.

I hear ya on the dimming flame for the Z. I keep contemplating parting out and selling the Z, then trading in my '12 S4 for a '14 S4 (fully loaded) and modding the hell out of it. After driving the Audi with the engine in Dynamic mode, with the super precise shifting it allows, there's no real point in getting back in the Z....except to accelerate slowly and shift even slower, while dodging every road imperfection to avoid ripping hundreds of dollars of carbon fiber off the bottom edges of the car.

Thanks for the props! And you're right about the select few doing it right.

Z is paid off... do not sell lol.

Sparco's Evo is sick. Can't believe it's black but now white. Two tone is looking good. I talk to a lot of car enthusiasts and they do not like the X, they prefer the VIII and IX's. I like the look of the X over the earlier models some may disagree.

I like the X, when done right it looks mean. Love the storm trooper look on that car. If I had one it would look similar.

^ this. I never thought I would love a truck so much but an off road beast with 411 under the hood is crazy fun. I get back in the Z and hit the Cali freeway and think **** always under construction what the hell did I just hit LOL. Really I want some BBK's still and coilovers and want to frequent the track when I'm not in the dirt.

It would be waste if I were to sell the Z. And I've lost quite a bit of money from the last two new cars I bought and then traded.

Thanks man. The X is more comfortable and "grown" up I guess. The previous gens were more purist's cars, hardcore and to the point. They just remind me too much of a Civic for some reason.
