bye bye RX8... got a new ride

My RX8 gave me so many problems within the past year.. clutch pedal bracket broke, alternator broke, clutch/flywheel worn out, car flooded... here is the new ride. if you hate then go right ahead, i love the 350z. here are some pictures with volk sf winning.

Sorry about your 8. I've seen my fair share of good looking Z's, this is not one of them.
Wheels are nice though.

I hate Nismo Z's... especially ones with Volks.
It's like the ultimate fanboi car.

Good luck with it.

Zs can be nice, but I'm not a fan of a white one with a tail like that. Best of luck.

There are 7 of those on my street. Yours looks exactly like all of them.


Good car, but just not a drivers car.

I don't know why a dude is surprised when he posts 350Z pics on an RX8 website and we'd don't all bow down. Especially with this ugly one.

The nismo Z looks like its lower jaw got ripped off in the front (the grudge got to it), and I'm not a fan of the rear either. I do like the normal Z but not more than the 8, slower or not.

I LOVE 350Z's but I will never get used to that bodykit. Yikes!

I have logged many miles in a Z.
Great cars . . . . fun to drive, and of course the torque. They will last a long time, they get okay mileage, they even have a decent stereo.

But to me, they are like the Evo's . . . . No soul, No heart, No feedback, and every teenager on the block has one



At least you didn't get a Civic

Goodluck and enjoy your ride. As long as you don't regret getting it, don't worry about what others have to say.

I don't like the look of the 350Z, and I am definitely not a fan of the NISMO body kit, but the NISMO Z sure is a quick car. I think a stock Z looks better despite being slower.

350Zs are cool, but yours is way overdone.

I'm not even going to dig up that youtube of the 350Z with the supercharger taped on his hood. You know the one.

I hate 350z's. Stupid car. You'll get no love from me.

At least you didn't do this... say hi to your new family. Bling bling.
