Too old! Lol



It already has every bolton breather mod and a tune....power is pretty much maxed out unless I go FI which I probably can't afford considering I want a cheaper car lol

2005 corvette

yup

My friend just got a 05 vette for 23.5 with 60k miles and on a chevy thats a lot i think. I'm not an American made guy so I would keep z. I want a new m3 but can't afford it because I'm in college. The z is great though! Rare around Clemson area too.

If you want cheaper get a 2011 5.0 I guess. Good luck

Other things to consider. Are you paying cash out right for your next car or looking to finance? If you looking to finance you can't really go too old on a car otherwise you will have trouble with a bank cutting you a loan. Not to mention used cars tend to have high interest rates. I mean cars to consider would be a used C6 Vette. You can find 08's and 09's for around 30k, sometimes less. You can even find 05-06's in the mid 20's, but again financing a car this old will be more difficult. Not to mention you are talking about a car that may or may not have been taken car of.

I think a cheaper car that is faster and yet still easy to find and finance would be a mustang GT. There are 2011's that are now slightly used hitting the dealers, financing a 2011 won't be that hard to do, and it's a faster car for sure.

Now if your paying cash out right for a car then you have far more options

PS. Yes, you paid too much for your car which is why you still owe so much on it. This will make it difficult to get out from under it

I think you're just gambling that you would finish college and get a good paying job that would pay off the loan you still owe.

Not sure what you are basing that assumption on. I graduated over a year ago and got a good paying job right after I graduated....that's how I bought the car in the first place.

After coming from a modified charger r/t. To the Z. I can say this..

There are only a few cars out on the road that i actually look out for. Its the STI, Mustang and the EVO. The only reason is that the owners of those cars happen to be younger guys that know what they are doing. Not only that, but they usually want to pull by me and try and race. Im not a racer & this forum doesn't condone street racing. All i have to say is that-- they can be very fast. I found a used EVO 8 for 15k here in Scottsdale. 80k on it. Thats a decent deal! 385whp...

How fast do you want to be? The nismo is considered one of the fastest cars on the road.

I think I lost my thought process when I posted that and thought 864Zbeast was the OP.

that sounds like a really good deal. I really love those evos and the power they can make. The one thing holding me back from that car is the image....the front looks wicked but the rear just look like a shitty econo-box. If the Evo 10 was a bit cheaper I'd be all over it

Joking? Cause it really isn't.

Sell the nismo, buy a base c5 vette manual, will be as fast or faster . One can be had with decent miles for ~20k

or even a c5 z06 in mid 20's

Not joking.. Theres a reason people take videos and pictures of 370z flying by on the freeways and thru the city.. I mean there are a TON of faster cars. But how many do you see on a daily basis?

I see civics, trucks, camrys, benz, 3 series, and a ton of new hyundai sonatas. I dont see a ton of 370z's! Thats my opinion though

That's just describing rarity, not "fast."

Reminds me of this commercial (yes, I use to own a Celica before traded up for Z)

:iagree: 405hp/400tq stock for low to mid 20's is hard to beat. Plus you could add LTH's, exhaust, cai, aggressive cam, tune and you'll be pushing 450-500whp easy.
