Just stretch it out into a TT Maxima!

If you going to get rid of the Z I would buy an evo so you can still go fast! Or like the others said already, buy a used family car. There a affordable Odysseys out there. That's what I have as a family car. We have 4 kids lol!

you sure can try. but even a nismo with alot of mods and gtm TT was I think 40 or under. Not trying to disuage you from trying, just I think thats the numbers i recall.

You can try to sell it for what you want, and then lets say the only offer is about 5-6k then instead of taking the hit why not just spend 5-6k on another car!

Also if you dont want a super sporty big family car (EVo, STI) but still want something large, comfy with gobs of power.. G8 GT...

Keep the car. Get another job. LOL.

It sucks to say but cars are never an investment. Modifications never add value to a car. That's why you see people parting out before selling. You can try to sell it for the price you ask and might get lucky that someone will buy it. It never hurts to try.

true, modifications don't really add much value to a car, but a twin turbo kit isn't just some body kit or a set of springs. the TT kit should add at least 5k to what someone would be willing to pay for the car.

Jeffblue · 01-01-2011, 03:02 PM

btw, if you had the extra money around to TT your car, don't you have some extra cash to buy a decent truck or crossover? you could get a subaru forester or some kind of wagon thing for like less than 10k.

It all depends on the consumer who's looking to buy. I think I am speaking from the majority that I would rather buy a virgin car than a modified one. I would even stay away from an aftermarket turbocharged car since it never came with one in the first place. Having good history of who did the work and condition of the car would be fine, I guess.

Provided you can find someone who wants those parts on the car. Especially on a newer car like the Z, it's hard.
