So confused need help!!

Patel511 · 03-29-2010, 11:24 PM

Okay, thanks to Robert_Nash for the hook-up of VPP!!! But I have found myself in a real dilemma... I can get the Z using VPP or I can get an Evo X for $32,000 with a 5-speed and hids, bigger wing, and rockford fosgate... yet the interior doesn't hold a candle to the Z. The revs during highway cruising is around 3200 to 3800 rpm, but it's also easy to derive power from the engine.

The Z has a better sounding engine and better for cruising. Yet only two seats... I love the interior in the Z.

I gotta choose quick or both deals will slip away.............................

HELP

You might get some biased replies on this forum.

Patel511 · 03-29-2010, 11:35 PM

Ya I posted on both forums to see what people like about their cars to see which one relates to me the most. I like the AWD 4-seater but I'm used to V6 engines...

Patel511 · 03-29-2010, 11:40 PM

I've never owned a turbo'd car

Zsteve · 03-29-2010, 11:42 PM

do you want a riced out car or a nice sports car? And Im not being a d!ck as some people like the more too fast too furious look (rice to me) while others like a good looking sports car. Now if you are going to get the bigger wings and all even if you get the Z then Id go with the Evo, as a Z doest look good like that.

Patel511 · 03-29-2010, 11:48 PM

^ See there is another thing that gets me... isn't a civic with a huge wing and neon lights and a loud annoying exhaust a ricer... yes the evo has a wing but it has power. But it doesn't have the classy look of the Z for sure, I understand it from that side.

Another question is being able to fit into the Z.. I fit in the 350z haven't tried the 370Z. I am 5'11 210lbs

Patel511 · 03-29-2010, 11:52 PM

I've sat in the Evo.. but they never let me test drive it. They say, "you know what you're buying when you're interested in an Evo"

Rice doesnt apply to Honda only, its more like the race car looking car but it isnt used as such and is only on the street. If your not racing on a track the BIG wing does nothing more than what a subtle one does. The Evo does have power but it still has that too fast too furious look and IMO thats kinda ricey. The Z is really a true classy sports car. But it really depends on your taste.

I would never buy a car I cant test drive.

mjch3n · 03-30-2010, 12:09 AM

Yea wtf no test drive? The dealers i've gone always push me to test drive a car first before even checking out all the features. Don't buy unless you know what you're getting..and that requires a test drive.

Patel511 · 03-30-2010, 12:18 AM

^I totally agree... I test drove the G37 when it came out so i sort of know what to expect from the engine

Patel511 · 03-30-2010, 12:25 AM

So will I be able to fit it the question lol

chuckd05 · 03-30-2010, 01:28 AM

two different cars. if you want to make 350+ hp get the evo, if youre cool with the Z being darn quick for its price / class (faster than evo x stock) and looking 10x's nicer than the evo than get the Z

but if you want to go mod crazy Id get the evo.

IDZRVIT · 03-30-2010, 09:19 AM

If your single or married without kids, get the Z. It's a no brainer. You'll love it.

I'm 6ft. I fit fine.

I believe there are a few members on here well above 6ft who have said they fit in the car with 0 issues.

Never buy a car without a test drive....If they won't let you theres obviously something up.
