Dean_1983 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Was wondering what people car was before they got their zed and what they plan to get next I've only owned my 350 for a few weeks and I've loved every second ( even with it returning 20mpg ) My last car was an Civic type R fn2 I've wanted an Evo 8/9 MR 360 for years now and it's the only thing I'd consider giving up the zed for Something like this 👠Sorry if this has been covered already Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
GMballistic Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 There is this thread here which is "post up your previous cars"; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/23174-memory-lane-post-up-your-old-car-pics-here/ Not exactly the same but... Before my 350Z I used to own a 2003 Civic Type R 30th Anniversary Edition EP3. Not a bad car tbh although I never really fell in love with it like I have the Zed. Next car, well honestly I don't want to get rid of the Zed ~ if I did then I wouldn't bother spending money on it. 2 Quote
nowhereboy Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Also had an EP3 type R, on KW coilovers, k-100, full exhaust from the manifold back, stripped interior with red recaros. Was an absolute monster on the B roads, my Z would never keep up with it. Like you the Evo is also a car on my wish list. I very nearly bought one not long ago but decided against it as I really wouldn't have the money to fix it if anything went wrong. 1 Quote
allaboutthepasty Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Had a few VR6's and such but this was the most fun car I've ever driven. Cooling lines corroded and I didn't have the time to replace them all so sold it on at a profit. Can't find a pic when it was in my possession but I had it pretty much standard. New owner put the aftermarket wheels on. Really want it back. I'd trade the Zed in anyday for a low milage minter! 2 Quote
jimboy2 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Always wanted a evo 8 or 9 but the 2 services a year would drive me mad as I don't use it enough Quote
mikejbry Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 E39 540i sport, 286bhp v8, had to scratch the v8 itch. Still have it, need to sell it really but I've only had the zed a week! I was considering a monaro next but the zed won! Quote
hawker1986 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Well the Zed is the Mrs' car - her previous was a 1.0L S reg Nissan Micra 3 door, in silver, I don't think I have a picture of it! Weve had the Zed over 2 years now and we both still love to drive it. Shes planning on upgrading to a GT-R in a few years. She seems to have a thing for Nissan's Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I ran a s2000 and Clio 172cup before my zed , and had a r26 megane after ..... Now looking into a z4m coupe / another 350 or if some plans work out e90 m3 Quote

Linus27 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I've gone from an Elise S1, to a Scooby WRX, to a Civic Type R EP3 and now an Integra Type R DC5. The plan was to go to a 350z after the EP3 but I could not find nice one and I wasn't done with Honda's yet. The DC5 was an itch I always wanted to scratch. I think after the DC5 then a 350z/370z will be on the cards Quote
ilogikal1 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 My previous Next, either a Monaro/VXR8 or an Elise. Because they're similar cars, obviously. Quote

tatooandy67 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 My zeds predecessor was a 04 xkr coupe, fast comfortable and sleek but since I got my 370 I haven't given any thought to the next car, love my zed too much Quote
GMballistic Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I thought I recognised your name from somewhere. Are you on the Type R forum?? I was yes. You? I used to be on CTRO all the time and before that when I had my JDM Subaru Impreza I was on Scoobynet (probably 2007-2009). Never change my user name as I've nothing to hide and really like it. Plus I can find my old threads over the net really easily. Quote

Dean_1983 Posted May 18, 2014 Author Posted May 18, 2014 I was on civinfo for a short period .. Only owned the fn2 for about a month Forums are a huge help when looking to buy a car Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
roscopervis Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 This was my previous car, a 280 bhp S14a. Bloody loved it, but some bint in a Clio rear ended it. Probably for the best though, some issues were getting costly and it allowed me to get a Zed! Quote
GMballistic Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Love the colour of the S14 roscoepervis. Very cool colour. 1 Quote
Jetpilot Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I had a 10-12 year love affair with Rx7s, from std (breathing mods/ecu) to the last incarnation which was 501hp. Great cars but my last few spent more time being fettled than driven and the ownership is getting dubious to say the least Would love an Evo, most likely a 6, again though i just cant escape the growing reputation of current ownership sadly, the same goes for later model scoobs! Unless my budget stretched significantly i am not sure what i would change too, maybe the only temptation would be a R32GTR before they go mental in price. This was my first and imho best Rx7 i had 5 Quote
mikejbry Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 My previous whip... This question goes to yourself and Linus, why do you both have what appears to be alloy towing hooks on the rear of your cars? Quote

I am also on CTRO for although I never really used it. Also on Scoobynet as I have my Scooby still. Looks like we have moved in the same circles Let's of stuff about me on the internet due to past exploits as well as car stuff Quote
