This. Also, you may want to check out the new Fiesta ST coming out soon. Early reviews are great and it's a bit cheaper.

The only thing that you are worried about is the monthly payment... Just refi. don't downgrade and take a loss, that's not smart

or you could buy my 95 Z32-TT, have a better looking and quicker car than your Z34 and not have any payments. You will give up cup holders and a few other niceties. I still need to do a couple of things before putting it up for sale, but PM me in case you're at all interested.

LOL, I hope that wasnt serious, the Z32TT might be one of my favorite Z cars, but it's THE most expensive to maintain, lol

(Call Courtest Nissan parts, they'll tell you, they make their money off the Z32, and GTR part sales over seas [they buy totaled ones and refurbish them])

i'm going to read all of this, but if you're on the plus side with your Z, why not sell it and buy a 350?, not sure a step down then.

asdfsammich · 04-25-2013, 10:46 PM

Haha. And to be fully on topic! If I needed a DD I'd probably get a BRZ, so yeah, I think they're great cars for what they are.

Good review.

why am i only seeing FRS's on the road here in socal? Is the BRZ markup that bad or low stock?

low stock causing bad mark ups.

its an overall nicer car.

Interior quality is really stepped up between the two.

Ya i would rather have a Subaru than Scion also just for the name lol. I dont like the Scion aftermarket crowd. I think the BRZ has HID projectors over it too.

There are 9 Scions to every ONE Subaru, that's why

FairladyZ · 04-26-2013, 12:03 AM

Another reason why there are 9 scions to one subaru is because TOYOTA was the one who funded the whole project and has a lot more invested so they were allowed a higher amount of allocations compared to the subaru.

That is actually written in one of the magazines, i think it was car and driver or whatever. One of them that compared frs vs brz

JungleZ · 04-26-2013, 12:10 AM

All i know is i got into a leased base model Z for the 31K invoice total after everything no bs before they raised the prices. I think thats a fair price, so marking up the BRZ is nuts they have it at 29K. Would your rather pay 2,000 more and get a base z right?
