hhhmmm, i didnt know that about the STi, i know some people with STi conversions but no one with a real STi

im just bored of my car if that makes any sense, its not really fun to drive any more, too much grip imo(which is good if i went to the track every weekend, but i dont so its boring)
its like james may said, the fun begins when the grip starts to end

well i love the look of the old 2G eclipse, heck i use to own a 2G GST before i bought my Z, plus its AWD turbo and it uses the same engine as the EVO 8 and 9

But still it's an eclipse... I'd recommend Supra or Rx7. They got the look AND the performence.

this is true, i havent really looked into the RX7 before, that would be one sick car to have though

i would get a supra but they are expensive unless i opt for the N/A version

If you turn off vdc and go WOT mid turn then the back will slide out nicely

I could see trading it in for another performance car such as the STi if you need the space and AWD with your weather situation (like me - going to move to CO), but I couldn't see the reasoning for saying the z isn't fun enough. Maybe you're not driving it right? Hah I kid I kid.

But if you are determined to change things up, the most fun alternative is getting a an STi and prepare it to go off roading. Or a jeep wrangler to go off roading. But for just street driving, I'd stick with the z

Or to save money you get get an frs
well i would just get the juke to mess around with honestly, im leaning more towards an evo or an STi

i would get an FRS except that thing is SLOW, if it had a turbo i would be all over it but it doesnt, maybe the BRZ STi will have a turbo, iirc its rumored to have one

honestly i kind of want more space and something that wouldnt be so inconvenient at times, like when i had to pick up a few things for my uncle(a stool and a few other big items), i had to borrow my moms maxima to get them because they wouldnt fit in the hatch of the Z, if i had a sedan, or even a FRS, i could have fit everything in the trunk(or in the case with the FRS drop the back seats and then fit everything)
