Haha, I wish I could say it was the most *ideal*.

I just graduated undergrad last May and haven't worked for a full year yet at my current job...plus I have mortgage payments on my condo......don't know if it's *ideal* for me to buy a pretty much brand new car. But we'll see what I can do

And as for getting involved, I totally will if I end up getting a Z (still thinking about the evo). A couple of co-workers of mine including my manager are BMW instructors, so I'll be sure to attend many auto-x's and track days.

Now to go find me a car........

 

If you want to buy a used one
Derrick from this site Bobafettm has his twin turbo Z for sale

He is kind of in your price range with it, and its a local car.
It has 590whp or something like that.

If you were planning on modding the car, this one has EVERYTHING done to it already you could ever really want. He has an insane amount of money in it.

He would probably take 25 for it, and you will DESTROY almost any Evo in it.
Just a thought.

 

I think he would destroy EVERY evo in that thing.

 

Yes, as a matter of fact I have never seen him lose in that car.
Then again, he will, its not the fastest car on earth, but it is a rocket ship.

are you kidding me ? youtube the ams evo , see if it could destroy them .

 

Yea I've seen his car on here before, same on xceed. That's way too much car for me right now. Plus I'd rather build it up myself too, cuz that's most of the fun!

So apparently ppl are finding 07 enthusiasts for 27k.......what's the best way to search for one? I called dick scott (or scott dick) nissan in canton and left them my info.

And it seems like every year Z has some sort of issue except 05 and so far 08.....kinda scares me

 

Billy, yes a tuning company's Evo will beat it.
It should...

I am saying the average Joe's car...

AZN...any year of any car has a problem if you look hard enough.
Victory Nissan in Macomb is also a great dealer.
Just a thought....

 

Ok I dont know how much longer I can wait for my car. Last night I opened the box for my evoTT, it looks so nice. The tips are HUGE. I cant wait for it to warm up a little bit more. I think I might lay the system out tonight and make sure I have all the parts. Now that I started buying parts I dont want to stop. I think my next mod if it fits will be the GTSPEC 4 point brace.

 

Is that the frame brace? The EvoTT will look great, the tips on that exhaust are perfect.

 

Jonny Boy, Has the mod bug Now!! Once you start you can't stop!!... Ask Billy!! lol

I can't wait to get my car out too!...As soon as everyone gets their car out of storage we should all get together like we did in Birmingham last year, we should do it at a Park & BBQ too!! ,what do you guys think??

 

AZN -- check this '07 for sale:

Yea I saw that, it's an incredible deal. Too bad it's a Base. If it was enthusiast I'd be flying out to pick it up this weekend haha. Thanks for the heads up tho.

 

Jeff - Yes that is the frame brace. Intense has a pretty good price on them right now. I agree I think that the EvoTT is one of the nicest looking systems out, and I am sure it will sound bad a$$. Let me know when your car comes out, because I definatly want to see it in person with the springs.

I do have the mod bug, but I am still a ways off from getting my turbos. I think I am working on my supporting mods right now.

 

yeah mod bugs . << bitten about 30k out my pocket . got some more update on the car . i thought i was done after autorama . guess not .

 

Billy, what more can you do to that thing...
I guess I will have to wait and see

AZn that is a great deal, remember you can add a gear and LSD to it after you get it. Alot of people get the base and then do that immediatly.

Another one will pop up though....

Craig-I am always in for a gathering of the Z's

 

Yea...I'm currently looking at 05's.

So you guys think an 05' enthusiast with under 20k miles for 20k is a good deal?

Currently one guy has one with only 8k miles and is asking 23k. But if I can get it for 20k...........*drool* I'm still curious on those 07's ppl are getting for like 25k tho.

 

Aznsky, I have a 05 roadster & I love it!.. never had any problems with it!.. But I only have 8k miles on it.

A J, looks like we are the only two interested in hooking up!

 

I am interested in a Z gathering, but not for another couple of weeks.

 

the mods never end aj . you guys only see the beginning of it .
