Full time GT-R or part time 370Z?

RicerX · 10-27-2014, 01:50 PM

Given the opportunity, you have the opportunity to purchase in one of the two following scenarios:

1) Buy any 370Z you want (even the new 2015 Nismo, or a beautifully used 40th Anniversary Edition, or a ragged out 2009 with a busted CSC and no oil cooler) to do whatever you want with (track duty, show car duty, weekend duty, heists/transporter duty) AND a DD/practical car of your choice with a minimum of four seats and under $25k in price. (examples - Juke Nismo, Altima, V6 Mustang Convertible, 10 year old Buick Lacrosse)
2) Buy a GT-R, and it must be your daily driver/kid hauler/grocery getter/boner generator.

Curious as to what you guys think.

Everyone's situation is different, so I doubt that the poll will really tell you much of anything... That said, I'd get the GTR (but then I don't have to worry about driving kids around town, and I have a truck available to haul large items).

GTR all day. The only thing better than having a car with a turbo, is having a car with TWO turbos!

Bking · 10-27-2014, 02:07 PM

GT-R no doubt.

More power.
More seats.
More trunk space.
4WD.

i would hate to park a GTR at the stores. and if your kids are toddlers or babies, it will be a royal pita to get them buckled in on a rainy day with door open, switches and door panels exposed to rain.

brucelidat · 10-27-2014, 02:48 PM

can we sue the money difference from the GT-R to boost the Z? I'd probably rather have a 500whp Z for fun (smaller, sexier looking, obviously not as fast without the AWD and other hi-tech stuff, but a lot of fun) and a nice practical hatch DD.
