rabbitstew Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 I do want something I wont lose money on, sick of wasting money on cars (not that I've had anything major league before). obv excluding running cost in that statement. I had a look at lotus Elise prices earlier and unless I am mistake, im sure they werent that expensive last time I looked, so they may well be on the increase. VX220 Turbo prices look like they have remained pretty solid too over the last few years. 1 Quote
coldel Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 I do keep an eye on VX prices and they havent really shifted much in the last 2 years at least, turbo prices seem to be creeping up but NAs remain steady. Oh and don't write off an NA, sure its not a straight line beast like the turbo but as standard it comes with stiffer suspension and arguably better handling. When you are sat 5 inches off the ground with the roof off, it feels like you are doing 100mph when tootling along at 30...DO IT MAN! 1 Quote
Martinjj Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Spread a ray of happiness and give the Zed to your Mrs and take up cycling.... Get the GT-R R34.keep it a couple of years whilst watching the market prices of the R35, then upgrade when you find one at the right price. Quote

The holy grail of car ownership, how about a Honda Nsx, very similar performance to the Zed, achingly beautiful and definitely wont loose money, probably make some Quote
tatooandy67 Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Get the GT-R R34.keep it a couple of years whilst watching the market prices of the R35, then upgrade when you find one at the right price. ^^^ this Unless the R35 is within reach now then go for it Either way what a nice dilemma to be in Quote
GMballistic Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 I'd say save up some cash, sell some things, let the Mrs have the Zed and buy the R34 GTR on your own. That way you'll be happy, she'll make you even happier in the sex dungeon as thanks for the Zed plus you could always drive the Zed again if you miss it. 3 Quote

Jetpilot Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 I love gtr's, I want one, but dont think you could ever say its good looking, purposeful, but not good looking Quote
GMballistic Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) R34's not so ugly I think. Love the colour on this one... Edited September 18, 2014 by GMballistic 2 Quote
coldel Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Skylines defo look better in the metal! Quote
Flex Posted September 18, 2014 Author Posted September 18, 2014 R34's not so ugly I think. Love the colour on this one... Love them, awesome, splurt! End of. Oh no hang on 2nd splurt, I should stop now... Quote

Or I could sell the zed, pay for someone else in the sex dungeon and have the r34 and I'm even happier. Also, never ever mention this post to the mrs, if you ever meet!! 1 Quote

You talk to me like I don't know the rules of "Zed Club" Flex. Section 1A ~ sub category 3 Section 1A Always tell the girlfriend/wife/partner that parts are half the cost of what they actually cost. A supercharger/turbo charger will always make your car more environmentally friendly/better on fuel & cheaper to run. Never ever mention any post by other members to their girlfriend/wife/partner ~ always stating when you do meet that you've only ever heard good things about them. 1 Quote

GMballistic Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 It's a verbal contract mate. Still legally binding though. Quote
rabbitstew Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 To be honest id probably sell the zed to fund the next car. You have to think about how much will you end up driving the zed if you buy something else. Unless you love the zed so much and can afford to keep it. Quote
mouthwash Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 If I'd only had one vote instead of four you might find that let her keep it is the clear winner, so you should be grateful that I done what I done.... Quote
KyleR Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 I voted for the R34. If you have an itch, it needs scratched, simple as! 1 Quote

Yeah I agree, I dont have enough dollars to keep both. It's just convincing the Mrs!! Oh and saving up!! Quote
rabbitstew Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 It's just convincing the Mrs!! Hmmm.. i didnt even mention it to the missus. Went to work one day in my 350HR Roadster, came back in a 6 month old BMW 123d coupe. Was the day before I got married too. Quote
