What kind of car do you drive?

Hotness! I'm probably going to be trading in my TL pretty soon, as I'm fairly bored with it and need a sports car. "Trading it in for what?" you ask. Oh, how about a nice 370Z. I'm a big Nissan fan.

Actually for only like $800 more onto my loan, I had it extended (Factory GM Warranty) up to 7 years / 70,000 miles (bumper to bumper).

Can't wait to go cruising tomorrow. lol

The RB26 is a pretty famously reliable and strong straight-6, yeah. Godzilla is the name given to the Skyline in general though, specifically the R34.

Speaking of "Godzilla," just saw my first GT-R sighting this past weekend on the road.

It's one thing to go over to our dealership and see the red one all shiney on the showroom floor. It's something entirely different seeing one on the road.

I still haven't seen one of those on the road yet, only in pictures on the interwebs. Have you seen the 370Z yet?

Not on the road, but we have 5-6 over at our Nissan dealership. Pricey though. $40,000+

I'm fairly certain I'm going to be selling my TL in a few months and getting myself a Z. I love those cars. My TL isn't even three years old yet. That's how much I love the new Z.

They’re cool alright, just not practical for me. Two seats is badass though.

Piece of crap Grand Am, as I spend all my money on home theater equipment and my Harley.

Not practical for me either, but sometimes you just have to tell the family that the car is more important than they are.

No but seriously, my wife just got a new CRV, and she has the kids 99% of the time anyway. My TL is just a waste of a car. I'm the only one who's ever in it.

Just got her back last week. I bought this car new in 06 and sold in last year to a friend. Just bought it back, he added quite a few things to it. It's pretty fun

Is that an Evo VIII?

[BStecke]

Nope, it's a IX SE.

What mods did your friend do?

[BStecke]

I did the turbo back exhaust, ported 02 housing, drop in filter and tune. He put on Bilstein shocks, Swift springs, replaced the drop in filter with a true short ram intake, solid motor mounts, new clutch and lightweight flywheel. It had a meth kit on it, but I guess it was giving him some trouble so he took it off.

Nice. My brother just got an 02 Subi WRX Wagon and we are starting to look into what mods to do. I'm trying to convince him to get a front mount intercooler but he won't budge. he will do the 3" downpipe and Turbo back.

Nice. My wife has an 06 WRX Limited (Limited has the leather interior). She loves the car, and she's one who always wants something new. Those boxer engines sound great with a nice exhaust. If your brother is just kind of a casual tuner, he may want to look into the Cobb Tuning Accessport. It's preprogrammed maps that you can switch on the fly, really easy to work with. You can also have custom tunes uploaded onto the unit so you can have your custom tune mixed in with the others.

Just bought my first car a little over a month ago a black 07 Altima. I would like to do stuff to it after I pay it off, but I don't know a whole lot about cars to do anything. I should have it paid off within this year.

Just signed the papers today for my new Nissan Sentra SE and am picking it up on Friday! I'm excited about it! I'm not much of a car guy, in fact, I'm not a car guy at all. I just wanted something reliable with good mileage to get me where I want to go when I wanna go there.

My $$$ go to audio equipment, Blu's and vinyl!
