knowing what you know now, would you suggest me to hold onto the X? i don't NEED a winter car, however living in St. Louis, it does snow here. when i had a 350z, i would just carpool with my girlfriend as she has a reliable dd. i'm not currently tracking the car, nor do i have plans to (i once did, but goals have changed). the X is fun, and with the moderate bolt ons and OTS stage 2 tune i still have, it's pretty damn fast. all i will ever need daily driving.

idk man, i miss the **** out of my 350z. my dad still has a Z and we would get together and go to Z meets, shows, etc. now that i have the X, we don't really have that anymore. sure we get together and go for cruises, but it's not the same. and like you pointed out in your first post in here, the Z is SO much sexier than the X. the X just doesn't do it for me in terms of looks. i'm just afraid the Z will let me down after having boost/awd with the X...

so confused on what i should do now lol... :/

lol, well its a personal choice. i really miss awd and boost. the z is sooo much fun and i still think its sexier than the x but boost is addicting. and i really dont need the 4 seats now, but later on, what if i do? i just miss awd and boost and if i knew what i know now i probably would have kept the x, but i always have to get something new haha. its really up to you

So the z sold this morning. Manuel from texas and his brother in law flew in to pick her up. I think SPEC JAY is going to have some competition over there now haha.

So after Manuel picked her up I was off to pick up the "new project" which was going to be a STI but decided to go with another...

yup, she just got off the truck with 6 miles on her and ready for mods haha

Haha really??? Full circle huh. You're going for big power I take it? You may want to check out MAPs new turbo lineup. Guys are making BIG power on pump gas and minimal supporting mods...

Lemme know your plans!

yeah, everything sold pretty quick. i made a good amount of my money back so i'm happy. only thing i got killed on was the AP. it black screened on me literally the DAY before i drove down to memphis to trade the car in. i wasn't able to unmarry or flash the tune back, however Jon Drenas at Cobb said it would be fine as-is with the tune that was on the car (stage 2).

do-luck is a nice touch. i almost picked one up before i decided to trade. keep us posted on what you end up doing with the car

And yes. I'm looking for big numbers this time around lol

So sad to see another great looking Z gone

ilive2win · 12-13-2011, 11:33 PM

It's not gone. It went to a good home with all the parts on it. I believe he's on the forums

the_student · 12-14-2011, 04:32 AM

I was hoping to see you get an STi. Congrats though!
