Default Out with the old in with the new

Hey whats up guys..
yea i just got rid of my RX8.. wasnt a bad car or anything but yea...it has the looks, i would turn heads all the time... but it doesnt have that powerful look to it. and i want something that does. and i saw the Z and boy everytime i see it it makes me want to buy one because not only is it stylish, but it also comes with some power under the hood right of the the dealer..... but i also have looked into the G35. which also has impressed me. So i was just seeing if you guys can help me a little with my choice. like the cons n pros of each. thanks.

I went from owning a Supra to a Z...not as head turning obviously...but had the same debate as you. If I could find a G35x in a manual, then i would have considered it. However, the Z is lighter, sportier, and doesnt requre a retarded dash kit to change the stereo which is a MUST for me since Bose suck *****. My only wish is that they offered a turbo option....I miss my boost

We get lots of requests on pros/cons; enough that the group gets a little cranky. Your best bet is to try "search" on here & spend quality time on the Nissan & Infiniti websites. Then come back with specific questions.

Heres the pic of my rx8. ok um i have heard something about there being alot of trouble with the engine. or in the first couple years of the Z. Is there still any problems with the 2007 350z? There is bound to be some kind of problem, but anything big that will end up costing me alot to fix?

Whatever Z you find, have a good mechanic check it out for mechanical soundness and any sign of accident damage.

When you locate a specific model & year Z, post it.

Most years have one thing or another but nothing that says you should avoid that year entirely.

Welcome to the forum, seems like you'll be doing a bit of homework, just as well you found the right school.
