thinking of trading in my z and my 4x4 on a 350z, thought on this :confused:

would ony leave me with a 350 and my 206, nothing for going off road and nothing for towing, is it worth it????????

Theres no getting away from the fact that although the 350Z might not be the 300ZX upgrade it is still called a Fairlady and it can be set up to look Fookin' lovely IMO...of course. this one is meant to be 700bhp???

some good links from here too!

and I have to say the ownership experience is a LOT less stressful and expensive!

 

I have to disagree with the last part of that. I have spent no where near 26 grand on my Z, even with servicing and the mods I have done to my car and the actual cost of the car it's much less than half the cost of a 350z.

 

I am starting to like the 350 though, I was behind a black one in a set of traffic lights the other day and I must say it looked the biz. Never liked the look of them when they first came out but they have grown on me.

Sorry mate, you misunderstood me (or more likely, I didn't make myself clear) ;).

 

What I meant, was as an on-going prospect, it's a lot less expensive, not just because the odd thing does go wrong with 300s, but because with so many great bits of kit available for the 300, and the fact that a lot of them really improve it, I found that I couldn't stop buying, bling, electronics, styling etc, etc .... that's all.

 

I guess I didn't really include depreciation in there either, but I reckon that over the course of a year, I spent about the same on my last 300 that I've lost in depreciation on my 350 - thanks to pretty good residuals. :hyper:

 

It's definitely less stressful though - I mean, it's never left me at the side of the M20, of stuck outside the prison in Maidstone, with an AA man trying to work out how to get her on the low loader, thanks to the bodykit and lowered springs!! :D :D
