2000 Audi A4 2.8 quattro auto.
2003 mini cooper S 6speed. modded with intake, Supercharger pulley, full catback exhaust, ecu, and OZ superleggeras. the true go kart and sounds amazing when the exhaust pops and burble.
2007 mini cooper S 6speed. turbo power but boring like a BMW.
2007 acura CSX 5speed. just a car.
now im loving the 2017 370z base.

Always liked the idea of a go kart Mini. Get it up to 300whp and it'd be a blast! and even has back seats, sorta

Had a ton of vehicles, but immediately before the Z I had a little A3 pocket rocket.

i dont think it was possible to hit 300whp. maybe with a turbo+supercharger setup or just turbo and strengthened engine. but this was around 8-9 years ago when i modded it so i dun rmb anymore. lol

on the audi 2.0T u should be able to hit 300 easily with bolt ons right?

Previous car was a 2003 C5 Corvette Coupe with 6MT. It was plenty fast and with gobs of torque. It was mainly stock except for a complete Corsa exhaust, adjustable Koni shocks and Eibach sways. In the end, I traded it in for my '16 Nismo which has similar HP but delivered very high in the rev range. The Z is a lot more fun to drive without any electronic gremlins.

OMG

'2104' year type Z !!!!

This should be a proof for existence of a time traveler.

Anyway, how do you feel your Z compared to the previous Boxter S ? (is that 2001 Porsche ?)
