So my current summer car is dying.

I can't decide if my next one should be a Z32 TT or a C5 base (Z06 is a bit pricey still and don't like the FRC look)

For price, I put them about equal. Even though I can get a Z32 TT for $5k less than the C5, I expect to put at least that much in to increase the power to 400whp and other maintenance.

So /o/, what would you pick?
Feel free to suggest other cars in the price range

what's your current car?

I love the 300ZX due to Mid Night but the Corvette.

It'll be a lot easier to work on.

a Z32 NA, bought it super cheap because the exterior is fucked (Huge dents all over one side, like it hit a guard rail fast, but frame is good)

It's been good for 2 years, but previous owners negligence has finally caught up to the engine. blown valve due to a long time vac leak

If I get the Z32 TT, I'd take any of the good parts and transfer them
>>
I'd rather a 350z desu
>>
>>17368553
Drove one in the past, didn't like it as much.
And for that price, I'd just get a Z32 TT and keep it at stock hp.

But good suggestion

He's actually correct, a 350 would be better than both.

I could understand some debate over z32 and z33, but the C5? In what way is the 350z better than the C5?

>>17368616
Did you mean boxster? because the 996 is still $24k+
>>
>>17368633
I've seen them go for around $20-21k where I live
>>
>>17368625
sexy indeed, but it's double the price of a normal 350z for a few mods
>>
>>17368644
base C5's are in the steady $15k range now, at least by me

>>17368511
you can get a used FRS/BRZ for that price
>>

I'd get the C5, you can do way more to the LS1 cheaper.

Um okay... get the C5.

>>17369157
the vac leak was fixed right away when I got it, but it's no coincidence that an exhaust valve on that bank blew

>>17368633
I've seen 996 in the teens. Seen turbos as low as 30k. Both were high mileAge but not salvage.
>>
>>17368545
If you get the TT you'll already have a parts car.

Z32 is an unreliable turd, get the C5.

Z32 TT, but I'm a huge Nissanfag. Z31 tarbo with the digital dash is orgasmic.
