The 370z Useless Thread (Coors Lite version)

Yeah frost, they've only maintained their resale value because of the tuner market. There are people you bought them as merely sunday drivers and are selling now with maybe 30K miles and asking nearly as much... FIRM.

The market only exists because of the high demand and press it's received as a import power house.

I like the idea that buying a ~15 year old car with turbos and 35K miles is somehow a better idea than getting something like a 370 and throwing TT on it. But hey, more power to anyone who thinks that's an awesome idea, I guess I'm just wired differently.

The 15 yr old car can have it's issues that new car won't have!

Personally, i'm with you. While I like the Supra, i'd much rather have a Z. If I'm going to spend that much money on a car I'll take a new one. The Z also has much more heritage and a better community IMO. Some of hte other communities are just horrid in comparison. I hate BMW communities... but thats neither here nor there I suppose

Agreed on the BMW comment. So many people present themselves as if they purchased their car to rub it in people's faces.

Togo · 08-30-2009, 07:09 PM

Yeah and around here the BMW drivers are just asshats. It's all about having a BMW as if its the most amazing performance machine to ever lay rubber down on the road. That and they are all just hair spiked out, guinea posers with calvin klein wife beaters 2 sizes too small, fake n' bake tans, kissy lip face, re-tards.

So annoying. I wouldn't buy one because of the company I'd be associated with. UGH!

As a former owner I resemble that remark!! lol j/k

frost · 08-30-2009, 07:23 PM

Trips · 08-30-2009, 07:24 PM
