Pretty sure they are talking about used J. I'm at $44k for mine, $50k if you include tax. After another $25k on the kit, I'm at used GTR prices damnitt.

The prices everyone has quoted is in the ballpark of what I expected to spend, considering I'm keeping the car for a long time. The challenge is all the other details; getting the car to Cali (best way, w/the least chance of damage), do I get a cheap junker to drive till the Z is ready to be picked up... and I intend to drive it home.. and the host of little bitty details that drive me nuts.



Thanks to jwick, TerribleONE, Hotrodz and the others for their input and the awesome threads they put up about their cars, it makes the decision easy to go boosted. I hate to bother Tony with this, considering I'm probably 6 months out from pulling the trigger on it and knowing he's busy up to his eyeballs. I'm sure he wouldn't mind, it's my 'I hate to ask silly questions' issue..
You are welcome and do jwick and Terrible have advised, call Tony or Kevin and talk to them. Being six months gives you time to plan and ask questions. I think Tony called me more than I called him before I committed to going with his kit. I was one of the lucky few that got my money back from that other company in Cali. I would advise anyone that is getting boosted to have another second car to use for a number of reasons, but mostly if something goes wrong or I need more upgrades then I still have transportation. The way I look at it is if I can't afford to be without my Z I shouldn't be spending the money on boosting it. You need to be in the mind set that it's not essential to your daily needs. Just one old guys perspective!!! Good luck and keep asking question there is tons of help here...

Age is simply mind over matter, if you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

I'm not that young either, hence the comment about it's not so easy to get over, under and around cars any more.

Yes used I would never pay over 40K for a Z. I'd be buying a C7 for 50k. Which is what I have been debating on doing right now. The Z has no power at all.

Where are you going to get a new c7 for 50k? Spec'ed out decently it's at least close to 60k. After TTL, it'll be around 66k.
