what car to get next?

[LeX 10+ year member]

Ok first off folks i'm a big nissan fan so it's hard to step away from the nissans but here are the choices. Looking to get a new daily driver

2004 G35 sedan 6spd black on black

2005 saab 9-2x turbo wagon(wrx)

1990s lexus SC300 2jzgte

G35: I love nissans , the car has low miles, nismo kit, springs, lots of goodies, 6spd black on black with HID. Price is reasonably high but overall a good deal

CONS: will be slowest of bunch without a supercharger or turbo which would be a while down the line (not much of a speed boost up from my maxima)

--------------

9-2x turbo: low miles, 24k, 5spd , turbo (i love wagon bodystyle)

newest car and lowest miles

CONS: most bland car, no other cons really, price is really good.

---------------------------------

SC300: 2jzgte swap would be done at mainstream and might do a single turbo swap for more power.

CONS: older car, would need to repaint body and prob be an older shell like a 92-93 so I could afford the motor swap cost.

what do you guys think? as a nissan fan the G35 is really appealing , but also i love the wrx powerplant and i LOVE turbo cars...

the sc300 would be an older car, but would be very sick to own and drive daily, I like the look of the SC body

Out of those 3 I would say the G35. Lots of potential.

You didnt say how much money you were willing to spend. Ever thought about a Mercedes?

sc300 its like got more style, what about a 3000GT VR4 ?..sure its not on your list but its got style, just as comfy as the other cars on your list ...wouldnt need a swap since they can handle a good ammount of power, maybe a RWD conversion //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Out of those 3 choices, considering this is going to be a daily driver not a project car id go with the saab turbo.

The SC sounds like it would be more of a project car, and even if not you'll turn it into one //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Daily driver to me = you dont mess with it too much. The saab being bland as you worded it could be made into more of a sleeper while still being reliable for daily driving.

1990s lexus SC300!!! Actually why dont you get the SC400? It's got the V8 engine instead of the V6 (SC300). I am actually thinking of buying the same, my camaro was totalled and my next car when the insurance money comes in will be either. . . Another camaro, Lexus SC400 because of the V8 engine, or if i can find an older BMW 850i. . . i'd get the BMW (12 cyl)

BMW 850i

around 4200 i estimate for the car alone not including all the sound deadening/audio I should get compensated for.

 

[CaliforniabOY5 10+ year member]

sound deadener alone in material alone was 1300. i dont mind forking out some money for a Bimmer like that.

Isn't the insurance on a 850 sky high! If not that would be a sweet ride.
