NOVA/DC/MD - Z's & Coffee Saturday's at 10AM in Fairfax, VA & Columbia, MD

It's not that exciting. I dumped 2g into it and set up one of those "way 2 save" things where my check card transactions will drop money into it. I figure if I sell the z in a year or 3 I'll have a shot at it.

So would it be totally impractical to get rid of the Altima and daily drive the S2K?

I don't like this one because it's been modded.

Not a bad DD but damn it's loud on the highway. I'm debating putting dynamat in the tub and trunk... not sure if I want to though since it's hard to reverse and would add 20-40 lbs. Though I could easily offset that by getting back in the gym.

You could always dd the Z.

chieuxuan · 12-16-2012, 09:40 PM

Ron, that is the one we've been talking about!!!

Yeah it's too bad it's been modded. Makes you wonder what kind of life it lived.

Exactly why I will never buy a SPORTS car used. Hence why I will only buy sports cars brand new, regardless of how much it drops in value the second you drive it off the lot.

Ill buy a used Honda/Toyota any day though.

I don't mind buying a used sports car... just have to be careful about it.

My Z's purchase turned out really well. I'd actually prefer to buy one slightly used just to get rid of that initial value drop. Of course if it's a marginal difference between new and used, then I'll take a new one for sure.

True, ive just had 3 terrible experiences. I had PPI's done on all 3 cars. My srt8 charger, m3, and s4. Each one of them had been dogged cause out of the 3 cars, two trannies had issues (s4 and charger), oil leaks on all 3, and a plethora of other issues.

So yeah you can see im a tad hesitant buying new. Some people luck out, some others, not so much.

edit: I did luck out on my clk500, except for when the nav decided to crap out on me while being lost on florida avenue in DC.
