- - FRS / BRZ or 370z ? (http://www.the370z.com/other-vehicles/119029-frs-brz-370z.html)

Ewww..there is no more FRS lol Ewww. Subaru lol Z for they money

Lol thanks Raf...stirs things up a bit around to keep it interesting;)

I think an S2000 would be a better option to consider against a 370Z than the frs twins.

It's a 2 seaters like the Z, a lot of fun to drive, tons of aftermarket parts available, and you can get an S2000 now a days for much less than a used frs.

I say the Z. Encourage basic mods cuz you have to mod the hell out an FRS to make it as fast as a Z.

Milage doesn't scare me on a vehicle;if it's been properly maintained.....& working at the Nissan dealership-he could probably ensure that a full service is performed on the ~Z~
Also,being a 7/AT,,,it will already have rapid acceleration & being a sport;probably also has an LSD...
An easy performance mod (not the cheapest) would be a gear swap,potential locker swap & bushing replacement.....if it has the 3.357 gear like mine-it can pull to 175mph in 5th (1:1) so gear him down & increase his Grin....4.08's would keep him under 150(140-145)/as long as he stay's out of the OD gears.

1) he will push him self in the car past his driving ability.

2) he wants mods and does not have the money to mod the z.

The money he has and makes would go further with another vehicle when it comes to mods

You can go Boosted & give him all of your bolt on's....problem solved.

in his case, probably do a brz probably. it might be slow but he can get a newer one with lower milage and plenty of parts to mod.

have to make compromises somewhere and slow may keep him alive.

honestly though, id look at other cars besides just RWD coupes u listed. there are faster cars out dere and all it does is frustrate the driver when say a S3 or even a GTI blows past their faster-looking rides.

Well his work is already hooking him up on the price, plus they flushed every fluid on the car for him and inspected the vehicle even threw in 2 new rear tires. Gears are a good Idea thanks.

Yes I have mentioned other vehicles to him and he just isn't interested. He also stressed to me that it has to be rear wheel drive.

Due to mileage on the Z and cost of modding, first car BRZ. Wish i could have had a BRZ at that age, i was pushin a CRX!

Interesting subject/dilemma...

A CRX was not bad. I was pushing a Mazda 323 :ugh2: I wished I had a BRZ at that age as well

:D for someone who added the best enhancement's will take your word Ma'am :tup:

wat kind of mpg does BRZ get in real world? might be a fun car to dd and just to cruise around in if it sips gas. I hate making the stops at da pump. maybe for a young person dey don't care but in my busy life stopping to get gas is such hassle!!
