I had already sent my personal msg to my honorable administrator, AK370Z, that I want him to delete my two articles, but still no response or delete at all as the dictator never really communicates with his people :thumbup:

Anyway, I had better not (and really will not) write any post here, rather just see other's ones. Now I even got scared how if the administrator kick me off when he got pissed off and take advantage of his absolute power!!

* If anyone feels annoying or uncomfortable witj this s***ing post, PLEASE remember that I also can have the same bad feeling for others' s***ing ones in a forum.

As a result, we need to be careful for each other to keep good-mannered, don't we?
i dont really understand your post, im just letting him know that he should always keep an open mind when it comes to cars, just cause it looks and sounds slow, doesnt mean it is slow

^ good choice! I have to say a GT-R though. I have had the pleasure of driving one all week and the more I drive it the better it gets.

Probably a TDI. That is, once I get the speed out of my system. Gas mileage is king.

Just bought a new 2013 (4 Cylinder) Honda Accord EX-L with Nav. Got the upgraded Honda wheels and spoiler. I needed a four door with good gas milage and reliability and this car fit the bill. Completely redesigned transmission and engine and 36+ miles per gallon. I'm keeping my Z and still drive it but it's nice to have another car for the longer drives.

Its hard to say which car i will get in next because of the next gen technology shift in cars. I'm hoping, mostly to be in the NEXT-GEN Z. If it ******* up and goes up the GT ladder instead of the sport ladder? Then it will be a rival performer to current cars like the 135i, and upcoming turbo4 328is coupe. I might get more out of the bimmer dollar for dollar as nissan pricing quickly escalates??? We'll see??? Bimmer reliability is still questionable though...
I want to modify an FI car. I miss my FD and NA gets stale after a while. Turbos are more fun & ALOT CHEAPER TO MOD.
I'm also considering AWD. EVO WRX possibly a used GTR, or a camaro ZL1 and take 300lbs off it??? Or maybe a next gen mustang or camaro if they come with an FI option? IF Volvo's 451hp awd polestar comes out??? I may do that? Rumor has it the next infiniti G will be 3400lbs n FI???? May go back to infiniti???? I'm just hoping for the best with the Z but sadly expecting the worst... Lets see what they do next first before i decide???

My next car is probably going to be the GT-R, if they're still making it by the time I can get one (I'm talking 5-6 years). I'm kind of a nissan/infiniti fanboy; I've had one since I could drive. If I understand correctly and they take a break from making the GT-R (and I can't get a used one with low miles) I'll jump back to infiniti. A lot of things could change in 5 years, though...

I hadn't given it much thought until I read this thread.

I suppose it depends on how heavily I decide to mod the Z. If I decide to pull the trigger on a GTM TT and exhaust solution, the point will be moot for quite a long time. I'd be compelled to own the car a LONG time to justify that kind of expense.

If I decide to just lightly mod the car with CAI/exhaust, I'll probably trade it for a Porsche Cayman R eventually. That $70k area is honestly the ceiling for me....I'm just not willing to spend more than that on a car.
