>>16735921
Nissans attempt to make a new gtr with a different name and it's rwd it's an ok car you can thrash around corners

>>16735921
Its cheap, and I want one, even if there pigfat

Too heavy for the engine.
Literally why the fuck is it that heavy?
I see fucking suv/trucks being lighter than this pigfat of a fat monstrum

its the

car

>>16735921
In my area 16 y/os get their parents to buy them so they can get outran by decades old Camaros and Mustangs on the highway

>>16735983
Isn't that a BMW/ Acura?
A used 6k/9k 350z isn't exactly what I'd call daddies money tier car.

>>16735921
disgusting

>>16735921
Pretty fun. Very affordable. Terrible interior.

someone didn't grow up in a rich neighborhood or attend a rich high school

Daddy's money is getting a BMW 328i (330i now i guess), Audi A4, or a loaded pickup. Those vehicles are all about appearance rather than performance because they couldn't give 2 shits if some poorfag in his 90's camaro is faster. All they care about is showing their status and looking "dope"

>>16736036
wtf does that even mean?

>>16736067
For the most part. Just get 07-08.

Just because they are newer? Or is there something wrong with the previous years?

>>16735921
There are better options, and most of them are automatic.

>>16736067
Don't buy one on Craigslist if it has cheap unknown brand rims because this is a dead giveaway that they barely had money to even do basic maintenance and most likely redlined the fuck out of it every day also don't buy it if the person looks like a fuck boy but other than that they can be reliable if taken care of.

i've only ever seen women driving them and they all looked retarded.

these things run 13 second quarter miles right out of the factory,,, they're pretty fast for what you're paying on the used market

>>16736138
Miata if you want something that can actually handle and a Mustang if you want something that will actually go fast.

>>16736114
More power and I think the earlier models burned oil or something.

They're pretty fun. My Dad has the 04 Grand Touring 350 and it's fine, reliable enough but he's had a few issues with it he's not been thrilled about.

It was pretty fun on the Dragon, it just feels very planted.

>>16736157
Really? I thought IS350's run low 13's and pretty sure they're faster than 350Z.

>>16736157
>>16736275

14 flat is the average bone stock with a good driver and optimal conditions.

Expect 14.3 at the lowest.

I had one 6 years ago. Loved it. Good entry to fun/sporty cars. It's fast enough to be fun, low to the ground, decent handling, and is rwd.

The auto tranny was pretty sluggish on my 04 convertible. Not very good on mileage for a small car with a 3.5 v6. I got 16mpg, and beat that with the v8 mustang and corvette afterwards which(obviously) also killed it in performance.

The only issues i had were failing amp in the bose sub and passenger window sticking. I fixed both issues myself.

>>16736305
This, you had to get into the 370Z before you could expect reliable 13s stock.

Guys who had some drag experience on a prepped track with good DA could get well into the 13s with at 350Z, but that probably excludes just about everyone in this thread.

>>16735921
I think they are generally cool if they aren't riced the fuck out.

I do find it funny everyone used to love the engine and exhaust note back in the 00s, but now every review says they sound like shit and the engine is rough.

>>16736941
I think the rough engine criticism is mainly with 370Z. Reviewers say it's course and unrefined at high RPM's.

>>16735921
If you love burning oil and replacing electronic parts constantly. Go for it.
Those cars are junk

Why are these cars famous for being almost impossible to mod them?

Turbos are out of the question and low power superchargers are seemingly the only option.

>>16736275
This, just get an is350

>back seat
>luxury car so the interior isnt absolute outdated shit like the 350z
>people will actually respect you

There is no reason to buy a 350/370z when you can get a second or third gen IS for 10-20k or 25-35k

>>16737101
Other than it anywhere from. 10 to 5 thousand more expensive lel

>>16737101
>>16737202
I bought my 2007 IS350 for $15k with just under 72k miles. Nice car, but coming from years of driving manual, I do wish it was more involving to drive. Actually just ordered some F-Sport sway bars to help with body roll :-)

>>16737378
Nice anon! But why reply to me?

>>16735983
>Any Nissan
>A status symbol
Richfags even laugh at GTR owners because Nissan isn't a luxury brand. Rich kids imitate rich adults, who masterbate furiously over the German luxury badges (performance be damned), and would sooner drive a beater Craigslist Special with a BMW/Audi/Mercedes badge than anything Nissan, let alone a Nissan that cost less than 40 grand.

>>16737380
I dunno. I've had some beers.

His dad was a bigshot at Ralph Lauren and I'm sure that glamorous lifestyle trickled down to him. Superficial twats will eat that shit up, regardless of how he looks.

mustang with eco boost shits on it for cheaper why do you shitheads on this board even bother with this crap taste. plus it looks like shit. :)

The 350z is usually driven by 20-something Mexicans here in CO. They are pretty decent cars and can be fun and sporty if you keep your expectations low. Not cheap to mod for speed.

>>16738291
Ecoboost is for queers. Got it?

>>16735921
it's a good car.
Handles well.
Drives fast.
Looks good.
Parts bin car.
Looks 3x as expensive as it is.
Enthusiast car.

It's a good platform to build on and you can turn it into something great

>>16735921
Just get a 370z. Similar price as a gt86 with almost double the power.

>>16738572
Not really, it attempts to do everything well and accomplishes none of it. The 370z is a DIRECT upgrade over it and actually pulls off the jack of all trades thing.

I owned one and it was a shit DD but great sports car, the 350 is even more shit of a DD so there you go.

>>16738406
>Tfw 20 something Mexican with a 350z
You're right about it not being cheap to mod, and I believe the de has better support than the hr
