Yup, after a year of ownership I traded in my Z for a 2004 Honda Accord V6. Why do you ask? Well the simple fact is, the Z was not practical for me. It's a great sports car, no doubt, but it was better suited as a weekend car. When I thought about it, my base 350Z only had two things going for it, the design and the engine. Other than that, it was completely bare bones. The fact I had that same alignment problem many of you had (which ruined the tires) helped me make my decision easier.

With my new Honda I have everything imaginable that I wanted to put on my Z. I've got Navigation now, power leather and heated seats, traction control, cruise control, 6 disc CD-changer, and it seats four! And the power is still pretty good at 240 HP. And no more 91 octane gas, 87 will suffice.

So long guys, it was a nice year of Z driving but I'm much happier now.

By the way, if you're interested in trading in your Z, go to Capitol Honda in San Jose and speak to Mike McGrew or Allan, one of the sales managers, they were a pleasure to do business with. Tell them Virnard sent you.

 

Sorry to hear man- good luck with the Accord. Did you sell it or trade it in? How much did you get?

 

Did you consider the TSX? The Accord has some good pull, sorry that the Z didn't work for you, but you should've gotten some good memories from it (and some pics too ). Good luck with new car.

 

I considered the TSX but it was a bit pricier and it was only a 4 cylinder. This new Accord Coupe has everything that the TSX has, but with more power and performance features.

First thing I'm going to do is lower it with eibach springs and do some research on 19" wheels, that should be fun.

To the my350z crew, please don't close my account. Even though I no longer have a Z this place is still very informative for me.

Anyway, happy driving guys!
