Honestly, were it me and I was making a classic "investment" decision I'd try to find one unmolested and as close to original as possible. Thats where the real value will be in the future. This showed up at a get-together here in town recently..Nice!!....

If your significant other won't let you have the supra and 370z, I say divorce her. But if that's not a option go with the supra. It's a highly sought after car and i wish I could find one that was as clean as yours (hopefully). I mean the Z will be around for a little while. Maybe in the future you can get a Z and keep the supra :happydance:

everybody has seen 600+ hp supras.............but not 370's......

I tend to favor cars that aren't the norm in being power players, tend to get props more, feeling of accomplishment, and so forth.....

Boost the 370 is my opinion for you.

Supra Sick,,, New Z, warranty, low mile, Sicker

Good luck. Whatever decision you make, you end up with an awesome ride.

BTW that wing is functional and adds a measurable amount of downforce at speed.

Problem with the Z and warranty, if you want the speed of the Supra your warranty is pretty much nill. The Supra was way over engineered and is very reliable, of course with age and miles will always become issues, but this is not a FD RX7..


I'm in the same boat with you and the NSX. Sometime you just need to live that childhood dream:tup:

One thing I will say is I missed the refinement of the Supra when I had the 350. IMO the 370 is on par, aside from the coarseness of the engine. Given the cost of the Supra when it was new (mine had a sticker of over 50k) I still worship Nissan for putting together such an awesome car at a great price.

On the My Z site, in the other vehicles section someone just picked up a 98 in the low to mid 30s with under 30k miles IIRC. Killer deal.

Keep us updated, I am excited! I would def spend some time with that targa off, it lets just the right amount of air in, and really adds to the driving experience!

Two of my friends used to have mint Supras which I was always able to get rides in. One was BPU and the other was 600+ HP. Damn those things were awesome. If it was up to me however, I'd probably still opt to go with the 370Z just because quality-wise it's pretty much on par with the Supra plus you get a new warranty. And although I think Supras look amazing, I just can't resist the beautiful curves of the 370Z.

TLDR version: Z is much less hassle simply because of the new car factors.

Supra are the Tits but I'd say think about it throughly before buying just because money is not a problem right now is not to say it couldn't be down the road. A MKIV supra has always been a dream of mine as well so if it's as in great of shape as you think it is I'd say pull the trigger.

After spending some time with the Supra, I have decided to test the waters in selling the Z. The car is a beautiful example, has been compression tested, has only had 2 prior owners and all stock bits are available.

I have a feeling I would regret it in the future if I did nothing, as I will be able to find another Z if I ever feel the desire in the future.

If the car doesn't sell in a few weeks I may just keep it, so we'll see what happens. Wish me luck in the sale!

I am really excited for you. I remember vividly the first days of my Supra, it was such an amazing ride. The performance you got in those days was very phenomenal, it's slightly more average now, but nothing the simple BPU upgrades won't fix:tup:

I had a feeling some seat time would sway you. Keep us posted!

Why don't you post all the details and price? Couldn't hurt! Good luck! :tup:

Life truly is short.
Sell the Z and live your dream with the Supra.
Life should not be full of regrets.

Good Luck.
