What other cars are you considering besides the 370Z?
I'm not sure how many of you are considering much else beyond the 370Z, but I am curious to know your thoughts?
As for me, well it's quite simple: -MINI Clubman S -Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 V6 I'm pretty sure this is the only time in my life I'll be able to enjoy a sporty coupe. If I get the Z or the MINI I'll probably keep it even after I get married and have kids (23 now, so this is definitely a LONG way off). I believe in holding onto a car for a little while and just appreciating what you have. I have quite a few friends and acquaintances that go through cars like most folks change clothes, and we're not talking cheap-o automobiles. I'm talking BMW, Infiniti, Audi, Lexus, and other high-end models and makes. I guess its part of the SoCal culture. |
Honestly I am sticking with my Taurus, I would rather have a house than a nice car... I had a BMW miss the car but not the payment... So I am saving that extra cash for a house!
|
So you're an enthusiast not looking to purchase? I think you're wise in your idea to pursue the purchase of a home instead of a car for very obvious facts and reasons.
Me on the other hand, though I foresee the pitfalls of not saving up and buying a home I'm a little more philosophical in my reasoning to pursue a purchase of a sports/sporty car; simply, I love cars. I have ever since I was a child, "car" was my first word (ask my Mom if you don't believe me). For me cars are so much more than a means of A to B, they're life, life on the open road. A place where I feel most at home, and a car that makes the most of that experience is the right car for me. Sorry for a the philosophical rant, but I'm sure you catch my drift by now.:tup: |
I agree I love cars, I love to mod them but right now have kid on way house is number one. I figure if I get a house cheap now in bad economy when market rises in 5-10 years, I can sell it have money for a real nice car no payment and buy a 3 family home to support my modding habit!

Chevrolet Camaro (provided that GM survives 2009)
Ford Mustang (the spy shots of the 2010 model looks nice, but why Ford is holding off a year until they put the 5.0-liter V8 in the car, I'll never know) Hyundai Genesis Coupe Mini Cooper JCW BMW 135i |
I drove the 135i and left less excited than I was going into the drive. Maybe I should set my expectations lower in the future?

I am waiting for BMW to put the twin turbo 3lt DIESEL engine in their coupe version and hope that they will allow to order it with a manual transmission.................then I will wait for a big block V8 engine to challenge it in a red light.
PS: As an added bonus i will love to get 36 mpg |
If Ford survives to 2010, I may consider a Mustang...

The new upcoming BMW Z4 Looks cool ,good possibly alternative to 370 Z .

I'm either going to keep my G35 or get a new 370z.

I really really like the new Subaru STI. Everything I hated about the old cars has been changed for the better.
I really want a 370Z, but I'm considering saying "F it" & getting the Subaru as it's SO much more practical. |

I really like this new car, but Im considering something domestic, possibly a new Malibu. But looking at the 370Z, Id have to say I am impressed.

Anyone cross shopping with a 335i? Kinda different I know, but the 135i is too darn ugly!

I'm coming from an '06 STI, and while the 08 STI is fun to drive, higher quality and comfier than mine, it is quite overpriced and lacking features a 35-40k should have such as keyless entry/go, one-touch up and down windows, etc. |

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/images/...o_291873_7.jpg Poor mans R8??? :icon17: .. I think it'll be a very good competitor EVEN though 35000 pounds is equal to $50, 000 but they have VATS and stuff which brings the price up. Looks nice actually. Quote:

Appearance and power are very subjective and what looks beautiful to one looks ugly to the other one. Power is the same thing, for someone driving a honda civic as a daily driver 300HP may seem a lot, but if you own a 911 turbo then 300HP is a slow turtle. I think your final choice is down to one simple thing:
How much power can you afford, in other words HOW MUCH MONEY ARE YOU WILLING TO SPEND.......then your $32000 dollars car will look just beautiful into your eyes. :stfu: |

Wow this topic is so interesting guys...
I'm bugging out to it, LOL! Jeez, but SO many choices for next year! I know its all about the car's specs., but I really care about appearance too... But when I saw the 370z it had me. No matter what I'm going to stay true and get myself a 370z white! |

Z4 m coupe is ~$10k more expensive and about to go out of production. The NEW Z4 should be good competition though.

Specs: BMW North America http://www.the370z.com/images/370zforum/z4.jpg I Wouldn't pay $50,000 for that car where the new Z will be just as agile as the bimmer and $20,000 less |
