thought the 350z was the car for me but after much fustration of using it as a daily for what I do now I might end up switching to a 335i. Sigh...I have a few weeks to decide my car's fate

335 is gonna be far less reliable if that is what your complaints were.

wasnt really complaining about reliability. More like room to do shopping or carry things in. Thought that a two seater would be great cause then i wont have to drive people around and it looks great. Over time having to do a lot of work and driving clients around and such its getting tiring having to borrow a 4 seater and I am really contemplating just getting a 4 door. As for the payments thats not the problem just the convienence of a 4 door is a amazing. Dunno yet ill have to see if ill really swithc up...

a 335i base goes for $40K...depending on which Z you have, it's not much more.

If you do decide on a 335i, make sure its a Sedan... the coupe doesn't have much room in the back/trunk either.

Anyways, have you thought about a G35 Sedan? (2007+) you can find really good deals on used ones w/ low miles. I've seen em for under $30k.

Good luck.

Ahhh, did you think about having the Z as a 2nd car since "monthly payments" are no problem for you?

I'd suggest taking a look at the new or G35X sedan. Awesome car, and much more affordable than a 335i, although not as fast stock vs. stock. Also worth considering the newer A4's too.

Or you could be like me. I picked up a 4x4 SUV to get me to the mountains and for daily driving, so I can keep the G. I just couldn't get rid of her!
