Coils are sold. I may have something up my sleeve

Going to 135i the speed is certainly the best aspect that i like over the Z (room is a close second) , and you have that with the Z plus the Z's uniqueness ... your ingredients to you Z have made it a masterpiece, just fix n keep it, i take back everything i said to you earlier...

refund lip and diffuser/sills money and sell the wheels and coils and your good to go!!!

Chuck, you're the man!

I'm sure that thing feels f'in nuts. Keep it man. I've contemplated selling the Z for something else, but nothing out there is like the Z. A Z06 is the only car out there worth replacing the Z with, and I don't have 70k lol. (My parents did so I drive theirs.

)

Trust me... I wouldn't get rid of it just because a damaged bumper. The entire ordeal I've gone through with the turbo kit fabrication and r&d has been hell.

I have found an '06 Z06 with 21k miles on it for 42k locally... they have really grown on me lately, but I don't think I can deal with that horrible interior and the fact that I'd be driving a 6 year old car. The Viper was my dream car when I was younger...not so much anymore, but I found my favorite color (Steel Grey) with only 27k miles on it for $42k. Then again...it's a 12 year old car. Then I've thought about an NSX...right back to an even older car.

In the end, what will I be happy with? I love the interior of the Z. I love the looks of my Z. I loved the boost of my Z. What does that add up to? Only time will tell. I'll get my bumper fixed hopefully next week and get an appointment at Nissan.
