Any owners who will NEVER sell their Z??

nepali · 02-08-2014, 11:50 AM

I'm averaging about 8,000 miles a year (~16,200 on the odometer now) so we will see what happens. I'm not going to say that I will keep it forever but I might keep it for a while.

I never thought I'd sell my 370 but did in Nov. 2012. I loved the car, babied it...but thought using it as a weekend driver was a waste. I saw one on the 405 N last weekend, slammed with some nice Volks...and thought "I gotta get another one." I had an FD3S RX-7 and thought I'd never sell it, but that car was a perpetual project. I still want an FD. But if I do get either an FD or Z34...it's gonna be with a V8 swap

Either a Hinson swapped FD...or an LS6 swapped 370. 370V for 370Vette!

My buddy just got an LS swapped FD...I will have one as a project car in a few years or a S14. I've already got a DD and have decided the 370 will become only a weekend/show car during the middle of this year. I just don't think I have ever really enjoyed a car so much that I have wanted to keep it long term. The 370 has that wow factor and is a great blend of performance and driveability.

Never maybe buy something else down the line...........................

I'm heavily considering getting rid of mine, even though I said I never would. I had to buy a Titan for work and now I've got two car payments, which is fine because I make more than enough money. However, I find myself using the Titan even for stuff outside of work and the Z just collects dust and it would be nice to find just a nicer truck and trade both vehicles.

However, I still want to keep the Z until its paid off in 3 years and trade it in on a 2012+ GTR. My Titan's only comfort features are power windows, its stripped, not even traction control, and the drivers window stopped working and the airbag light began to flash two months ago for no reason. Perhaps when the brand new diesel Titan comes out I'll trade in both of my vehicles for a fully loaded diesel Titan and forget about my dreams of owning a GTR.

In 9.5 years a Black Cherry 2013 Base + sport + 7A will probably be for sale. I estimate it should have between 20 and 22 thousand miles. Most likely stock perhaps rims. Assuming the site is still around feel free to drop me a pm around June.

Will never sell

Love my Z

JARblue · 02-10-2014, 06:29 PM

Excluding the hypothetical high offers, severe emergency fund needs, and other various possibilities that would make me rethink my current position, I have no plans to ever sell the Z.

I would like to either get another DD and turn the Z into a garage queen (more realistic) or continue to DD the Z and get something faster and more exotic (way less realistic at my current pay grade).

LMBmikeZ · 02-10-2014, 06:50 PM

I want to also say never but honestly if the FT-1 is as nice as it was in concept when(& if) it hits production I could see me getting a "new supra" but I would probably still try and keep the Z it would be to much of a loss to lose it.

The fact I bought it new and being the only owner/driver makes me want to keep it too!

OK, thanks George!

funny you say that because Toyota is one of the few companies that will actually make their concepts into production, unlike some of the other companies

Verbal21 · 02-10-2014, 08:35 PM

Yup, I'd ditch my Z for the next Supra in a heartbeat. It's the Toyota in my blood

it's just a prius with sporty body, no?

if the FT-1 turns out to be an affordable (<$50 sports car) i might look into it. but it wouldnt be to replace my Z.

prius! have you ever ridden in a supra? I would have got one over my Z32 before but couldn't find one as good as the Z32 (mileage and condition wise) I was looking at!

might not replace your Z but I bet it could replace your G!
