I had the Z for 8 months, in that time frame i had 2 hit and runs on it. First one some bitch was talking on her phone and took a corner to wide in a parking lot and hit me, then took off. I caught her but the cops didnt want to do anything. Second time i came out from the mall and someone hit the rear bumper and left quarter panel. The car wasnt what i needed at the time. Couldnt haul my army gear at all, only two seats...just not what i needed. I bought the car on a whim and really got screwed on the price. If i kept it for the full finance plan i would have been paying $73,000 for that thing.
Sold it, got my SRT-10 Ram, loved it. But with the gas prices increasing across canada, the transmission starting to slip and it being automatic (boring as hell) and not being able to take it on the track, i wanted something else. Gave the Evo-X a test drive and fell in love. Decided i wanted the GSR 5-speed manual and havent regretted it all. Went through a **** load of issues with the dealership because they tried to steal $480 from me, then they claimed i tried to hide the issue with the transmission and it cost them $8000 to repair which was bs cuz the dodge dealership quoted me $1350 to have it fixed. All it needed was a master rebuild kit that was $550 which replaces the clutch bands and a few other things.
Took the car to the drag strip the night i got it and ran a 13.5 right off the bat. Did a hpde day a week later and loved it. Then i got deployed here to afghanistan and was planning on doing bolt-ons and only spending $4000. A group buy on the new ball bearing turbos came up and...well that plan went to hell...lol. I dont regret it all. I went from a 07 Cobalt SS Supercharged - 09 370z - 05 SRT-10 RAM QC - 2011 EvoX GSR. I got nothing against the Z, but i wish i would have went from the cobalt to the evo and somehow been able to afford the srt-10, i wish i still had that along with the evo....bad *** truck. Loved that truck
