The CTS-V Sedan/Coupe/Wagon are on a completely different level, 556hp stock, it's closest competitors are ///M, AMG, RS - All monsters! saying the new CTS-V isnt enough of a sports car is hilarious!!

OP,

Great choice from the options you had! I just purchased my Z as well and cant get enough of the Synchro-Rev!!
and thanks! enjoy ur Z as well! 40th anniversary= awesome!

Ya eh, what makes the CTS-V a sports car...........it's 4 seats, high amounts of noise reduction, comfortable suspension, massive curb weight? Sounds like a luxury coupe to me. Its not at all "raw". Ya its powerful, and that power was hard to pass up on, but at the end of the day, is it really more fun to drive than the Z......a true sports car?


Oh and as far as the M3 goes, I have a friend that had a 2010.....he had so many computer clitches that he spent more time waiting in the shop for his car than driving it! And check out the forums/reviews......lots of problems, and high maintenance costs. I'm not saying its not beautiful car, but I speak the truth.......not the car for me.

No, its def not more fun then driving a Z thats for sure, BUT, its a sports car for the family man or woman. Not everyone can make the tradeoff for a 2 seater when they have family in mind. So the cts-v is the family mans sport car which is more practical for people who are trying to raise a family as well enjoy a sporty feel.

I agree with Elvis. The Z34 doesn't need much to look really great. Feel free to contact me with any questions about the car or mods. On that chrome trim, that's easy to remove. They actually sell that stuff at Autozone btw.

Congrats! For me, it was G37S, 335 coupe, Evo X, and 370z. Ultimately, I realized that being a college student, I don't need to/like to give people rides (especially in those 4 seater coupes, people kick the front seats to get to the back..). I also loved the feel and the instrument gauges of the Z.

Bro that is so true!! That's one of my main reasons for getting a 2 seater instead of my G37. My roommates always need rides and I always have to get out and let them in, and they scrape the hell out of the runners and stuff. Pain in the A$$!!!! Now, I don't even need an excuse to avoid driving people places lol....just me and my girl

Thanks, and yeah im a college student as well, and other than my really close friends I dont let anyone ride in it with me, other ppl just dont have the respect for your car, especially if its a nice one. they intentionally make a mess. I had a couple of those kinda friends, glad that was in the past

Digging up an old thread here, bit of a random question for you nmjaxx9! Spotted your Z in your avatar and was just wondering what's the front splitter you have on it? Still searching for one I like and that one caught my eye but couldn't find any pics in your other threads?
