RobPhoboS Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Hey guys, I'm looking at potentially getting into a 350z and of course my first port of call was to sign up here One of my best mates had one a few years ago, although his experience was soured due to one of the nissan garages not doing good work which nearly resulted in a serious accident (one of their mechanics was on board at the time as well). However, other people that I know which had them in the past haven't reported a bad thing, so I'm not put off one bit I guess my only concern is will the power be enough, although I'm more than positive it'll be plenty on day to day driving for time to come. I'm curious if anyone had gone to or come from an RX7/Supra/MR2 - and your thoughts on that. And yes, I'll be taking full advantage of the search Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewisH Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Can't vouch for the RX-7 but coming from an RX-8 the 350z is better in almost every way. Good luck finding your Z! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Many thanks for the warm welcome, looks very active here Slightly limited as I'm after a black one (or a very dark gun metal grey) but I'd much rather get one from the club than a random purchase.

RobPhoboS Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Many thanks guys. I've been reading a lot and checking out 'Leeroy's car tomorrow. It's the first one I'm looking at, so I hope he has some patience with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) Definitely going to go for a 350z (black/coupe/04-05 maybe 06 if price is ok) after driving a couple this weekend. Prices are a bit weird but I'd rather purchase from the club, so feel free to pm. Edited October 16, 2012 by RobPhoboS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leofin Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Hi Rob, bought my grey Z last year after driving a couple of similar cars...but fell in love with how this one handles on the road, and how the power is "delivered". Hope you find something good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Cheers guys. It definitely feels like the right car to go to next, although I want to see if I can store the MR2 somewhere as I love driving the little bugger. I'm going to view a couple more this weekend, and I wouldn't mind passing on some details to someone in a PM to see what they think of it ? It would be really helpful to me (and shall be rewarded with a pint! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
