I wanna come to your neck of the woods if you can buy a used Z34+mods and still have money for a down payment on a house, or find a used GT-R that hasn't been beat to sh!t for under 60k

Here it is lined up.

Car

Low mileage touring model - 20,494
Cars for Sale: 2010 Nissan 370Z Touring Coupe in San Antonio, TX 78212: Coupe Details - 391859751 - Autotrader

Body Work (fly1motorsports.com)

Fly 1 vented fenders frp - 700
AMS Rear Bumper frp - 600
Fuji Rep Front bumper FRP - 700
2 pairs of rear amuse canards - 180
Ill be generous and say bodywork - 3000

Wheels (getyourwheels.com)

Forgestar f14 19x9.5/19x11 - 1650
Nitto Invo 245/40/19 + 285/35/19 - 1180

Forced induction (fastintentions.com)

Fast intentions complete kit - 9995
Oil Cooler - 500
Uprev Tuner and license and turnkey tune - 600

So after all of that your total is - 39,599
Leaving you - 20,401

Meaning if you could finance a house worth 100,000 if you put average 20% down. With a credit score 660+ you can possibly get an even lower percentage. this is all with an average interest rate too.

Thats a nice house with a garage to house your gtr slayer. All for the price of 1 car? No thanks z35...

You forgot about install labor on the TT kit, and various other supporting mods which you will need.

Also, you cant even get a shack in CA for 100K but obviously we are on the high end of living cost.

i disagree with that. the new 5.0 has been out less than a year and i've already seen more 5.0 around than 370z in 6 years. that's saying something.

nismo13807 · 03-25-2015, 12:15 AM

60 k... wow.. ill just save 10 k and turbo my current z.. 3.7 T or 3.7 TT =)

I don't. The Z is definitely not your best bet for the fastest thing you can buy for the money and hasn't been for quite some time. What it provides though, is an experience you won't find in anything else available, and if that's what you like then the Z is what you're getting, because that's all there is.

If they could make a Mustang that drove like a sports coupe should I would buy one in an instant, but so far I have not been impressed with any of the ones I drove vs. the Z - and I'm well aware that both of them would put down better lap times than my NISMO on most tracks. They just were not exciting to drive in the slightest outside of the first couple of rushes from the V8's power.

b15 · 03-25-2015, 07:49 AM

I wouldn't mind a $60k Z if it was a complete package deal (looks, handling, power, interior).

370zseth · 03-25-2015, 08:14 AM

If I had won the lottery, yes I would. Right now? No, 2017? No I want to be able to retire one day soon and 60k on a car isnt it, if Im spending that much, I look at Porsche or pony up for a GTR.

That's part of why I chose the Z. I can't go 5 minutes driving without seeing a Mustang. Great performance but that's about it IMO.
