Nissan 370Z Forum  

If you had $25K what would you buy?

if your looking for a little class look for a 06-08 infiniti m35-45x. Friend of mine got an 06 back in 2009 for $26K

I would also get another S2000 or maybe a mazdaspeed miata. Both are definitely great track cars for the money. You think about running a Corvette regularly on the track. Cost would be triple without triple the fun.

Daisuke, we'll just have to agree to disagree. You make fine points, but I still like what a Miata gets you for 25k. I'd get one for 15k and spend the rest modding it.

But it's all good. And I agree that a G8 would be hella fun and roomy.

I kindof disagree. I would no way spend $25K on a miata. I would buy a used Z06 and have a helluva lot more fun. Or any number of other cars.

The beauty of the Miata is that it can be had in good shape for $5K and you can beat the piss out of it, slide it all over the parking-lot through the cones, and not care about smearing the fenders with them when you run them over.

The G8 is a nice car. I raced one once and it surprised me (lowered and had Magnaflow. It performed equal to my WS6 and all the C5 'vettes I had raced, in a straight line.).

I would get a Saturn sky with a v8. Looks nice, nimble and 400hp. A total sleeper that would track well.
