what kind of car do you want
 

I got the Z because it pulled nearly a full 1g in turns, ran about 5 sec 0-60

looked good and I could get the 370w/SP new under $32k.

My decision was all about bang for the buck.

The BMW wasn't in the running.

Your past vehicle choices lead me to guess your next car

will be a Subie or Evo.

Mine might be a vette:driving:

haha well i looked at subies and the EvoX... just got boring very quickly IMO. I love how the 370 looks and handles (granted the EvoX is a great handling car as well) Thanks guys i will get some pics up when the car is in my driveway :)

I was considering an older M5 but when you look at the upkeep & parts, plus with alot more BMWs out there personalizing your own would take thousands of dollars & years to complete.

This is one of the few times I've ever heard (read?) someone saying they cross-shopped with a 135i like I did. I thought I was crazy or something because the subject never came up on here

ya.... its funny we all had the same idea lol!

It's almost kind of validating to see that someone else considered it. On paper, it's actually one of the closest (relatively) competitors on the market.

good choice!

:tiphat:

The 135i was on my shopping list as well as the new 5.0. We ended up buying my wife a 328i and I just could not see having 2 BMWs, it seemed kinda redundant to me. I just could not get excited about the interior or the sheer number of Mustangs on the road so the 370Z won my heart!
