It's official

[UDLOSE98]

Well I have already started talking to the loan officers at my bank, and after a tough few weeks of pondering......im giving up on the camaro for good this time. I just dont feel that the car is near the point to where it would be streetable and decent DD for me, and I need that very badly. The current car I am driving has plates that are expired by 1 year, a spare tire for 4,000 miles, non-working windows, etc etc etc. Bottom line is I need a reliable car right now, and thats not gonna be the case with the camaro for awhile still. so for those interested in a TON of low milage (less than 10 miles) parts and stuff, watch the for sale section in the next week or 2. Now onto the pressing matter, a new car. My two front runners right now are a 2003 Nissan 350Z or a 2004 GTO. Opinions are always welcome for more, and I know most would say/will say GTO but I really like the styling of the Z. Well your input is welcome, sorry for the bad news guys.

Bro, I'm a Z man all the way. I love the 350. Drove a few of them and sometimes think about getting one myself. Trying to get my aunt to give me her old 260Z she has rotting in a field.

I am sorry to hear the bad news Dan, but I figured it was coming. It sucks that after all the time and money you have to throw in the towel. I know I wouldn't be building up my FB if I didn't have a reliable DD.

Good luck. and get the GTO stupid. :slap:

Re: It's official

only bad thing i hear about the 350Z is the low profile windows which makes visability a little difficult.. so def test drive and see if that bothers you, if not i dont believe there is nothing else wrong with em.. i like how you have a beater with broken windows and yet you have enough knowledge/money/time to do all that work on that camaro, yet you dont spend an ounce of time on something that could be that simple? lmao i must be missing something... but it just made me chuckle out loud, i guess its not worth a fix. Sorry to hear about your camaro, ive been following along for a long time.. you will miss it; no denying that. Sad to see it go after all that work you put into it. If it was up to me though i think i would get the GTO... something about a big engine that i like.. 350s are fly though, pretty much get in and go.. a GTO is more like an fbody tanking around town. youre choice; have fun deciding, keep us posted.

Re: It's official

I've driven a Z, 3 times already I know its got some rough blind spots.

and my beater is a 89 old cutlass with 130,xxx miles on it and it had been sitting in the woods for months before i got it, def not worth the time to fix.

Re: It's official

You suck. Keep the stupid maro and pick up a new crap DD. Don't give up after all you've done!

Black 350z.

Re: It's official

Bummer about giving up the project.

GTO. I like Z cars, but the Z33 doesn't do anything for me. I think the GTO is a lot more bang for the buck also.

Re: It's official

if you get a goat, at least get a 2005. LS2 FTW

Re: It's official

wait a minute...youre having a hard time deciding between an import 6 cylinder and a 400hp v8?? from gm none the less...man...i had higher hopes for u :poke:

[Niko97RS]

Re: It's official

:( :( :( its ok though i understand ur problem

im gunna go with the others and ask, C5? although the goat would be a sick choice


on the otherhand if ur gunna get a V8 american muscle car....why not an LS1 Camaro/bird?

Re: It's official

For the tard questioning his beater...The camaro was his daily driver, and the cutlass was my old car. I had boughten a new car and this one was backed into the woods to park for a while til i decided what to do with it.

driver side window falls out
gap between door and car
drivers side mirror is cracked/gone
f'd up interior
spare tire for a while like he said
and whatever else has happened that is crappy.

Not only did you double post but you didn't know that the 04 GTO is a 5.7

A 5.7 L LS1. The 05+ is the LS2 6.0
