Please help........I’m lazy

most of you will hate me and tell me to go do research/read the forums but why do that when I can have a team of experts help me in half the time but basically imagine you just bought a 350z and you got $5000 to spend modifying it what would you spend it on (this car is an automatic...again I get it you hate me)

Why not begin by telling us a little about yourself and your Z? What are your expectations after spending $5K? Please don't say adding 100 HP, as you'll only be encouraging flames.

intake, exhaust, and tune (Prolly at Z1) since you are in South.

Do not even think of going FI.

good luck

i just wanna know if you just bought a Nissan 350z how you would manage your money if 5k was the budget (yes there’s room for improvement but I’m still myself trying to figure out how much money I wanna sink into this car myself) nothing needs to be fixed is the morale of the story everything else it stock

If the car is stock, maintenance first- spark plugs, change out all fluids, detailing- then get some nice wheels with tires and quality suspension. If there is room left, a differential swap with 3.69 final drive out of a G37/370z to help with acceleration.

I would use that $5000 to buy a project car and keep the auto Z for my wife to drive on nice days.

Every time I have 5k the first thing I always do is dump it into my investment portfolio. I'll nibble at profits and funnel a little into the "car" fund.

I dump it towards my mortgage, I might drive a **** box every day but hopefully I'll pay off this house before I die.

I used to do the same but decided to sell my house to get out of the "rat race." Its a vicious cycle living in OC SoCal with sky high mortgages and no ammo when investment opportunities arise.

People like MicVelo can cash out and live comfortably (not that he isn't already) on a fat stash with the housing market going to the stratosphere in NorCal, Bay Area.
