Gotta love the ball bashings that the Z forum delivers.

Seriously if this crap keeps coming up im going to sell my car and buy something pricier so I don't have to see my platform drug through the mud. Seriously these "blast pipes" can be left on the boy racer STI's.

You can still keep it. You just have to wait them out.

To be honest I'm leaning towards the c7. I feel the mod choices are going to be endless.

Idk man. The c7 is gonna be the rare cat running around. I feel the streets will be flooded with every kid spending his entire months income to afford a base. But I think the c7 will stay in its own class for a long time.

As much as I would love to own a R35. I do not make R35 money.

I do not think that making a mortgage type loan payment on a car is worth it. If money wasn't an object. No problem.

I need CEO type money. Six figure annual for me to afford a GTR... It's wishful thinking though. Watching others build that platform in YouTube. And other media is satisfying enough.

You better be deeper into the six figures than you think. If your salary starts with 1xx,xxx, then you don't have GTR money. The old rule of thumb is you should never own a car that is worth more than half your annual income. If a GTR runs $110k new, then you need to pull in at least $200k.

Now all that being said a lot of people sign up to be car poor. I'm just saying it isn't a good financial decision, especially when you add GTR maintenance on top of the monthly payment.

He talks like an early Jesse from Breaking Bad so I assumed he was a real meth dealer.
