350z vs. G35 vs. S2000 vs. RSX

[95civictypeR]

ok i love the 350z cause its a two seater.. but after a while it might get old so i was thinking about the G35 but its heavier but its clean.. so im stuck on those two. then comes the S2000 and the RSX.. but im trying to get some opinions on these cars from owners so please help me out.. maybe theres a Car & Driver guy on here.. thanks LMK

[addandrew]

350z = fun fun fun.

[BTLFED]

I'm assuming that you are talking about a G35 coupe? The back seat in a G coupe is more like a padded shelf than a back seat. You can't exactly fit anyone besides a kid back there comfortably. The RSX is pretty much the same way.

So basically you are comparing 4 two seaters as far as comfort. Just because they have back seats doesn't mean they are actually functional LOL.

My choice would be the G35 Coupe. The S2k is fun, but too small interior wise for me. The RSX is not very exciting to drive (even the Type S isn't all that IMO), and I don't like the outside of the 350z.

[addandrew]

and I don't like the outside of the 350z.

I don't like the outside of you, lol I kid I kid.

[BTLFED]

I don't like the outside of you, lol I kid I kid.

I don't even know you.

[95civictypeR]

ok now what about the VW 1.8t GLI vs. VW 1.8t GLS whats the difference?

[bowdown201]

S2K FTW :goodjob:

[addandrew]

I don't even know you.

I was just mocking what you said...

[AnthonyF]

ok...rules...

#1- FWD SUCKS!!!!
#2. 4seats? wtf for? it should be u, and ur passenger. if u have 2 girls, they can share or one sits on u.

i hate having a backseat. I like a FEW people to ride with me, but when others ask, im like....NO backseat.

[The Youngn]

350 was called one of the top deadliest cars which is the cause of the high insurance rates. G35 was called one of the least deadliest cars and im pretty sure the insurance rates on that compared to the 350 is like night and day. Also having backseats helps you out in the insurance department.

also where did the S2K and RSX come from when you're thinking about 350s and G's??

[AnthonyF]

^^ his feminine side lol jk

[OneSlow5pt0]

if u need backseat go for a RX-8 or 540

[BTLFED]

I love how I am the only one that actually had an intelligent answer to his question. :rolleyes:

mine was right too. :goodjob:


the cars are all different. he needs to test drive each one. he'll have the most fun in the 350. the s2k isnt made for everyone. G35's are WAY over priced and for the money u save buying a 350, u can mod it a little quicker. an RSX just doesnt fit with the other 3.

[kppk1986]

ehhh i say go for the s2000, wasn't too impressed w/ the 350z, it has more power. But revving to 9k is simply amazing.

[JessAlba452]

I would personally get the G35. I've driven the 350z and it's roomy, but just not roomy enough.

To me it's like a weekend car, while the G35 can be both the weekend and grocery getter if you wanted. :D

[K20A2_DC5]

actually you can fit girls on the rsx back seats, not sure about the g35 tho. g/l, all of them are great choices.

[korilee13]

if i remember correctly...right when the g35 came out car and driver compared the two (350 vs G) and as far as the stats go then, they were relatively the same price except, the g35 was faster and it came stock with all around brembo brakes. if none of that helps, considering infiniti and nissan are the same company, and infiniti is the "luxury" company, i'd still choose the g35. its like comparing chevy and cadillac...

[JITB]

ur choices are too wide

350-g35-rsx-gli, if u cant afford a g or a z why even consider a rsx or gli...

just how i look at it..

[jayjaySTI]

350z = slow,gay

[ATK_Designs]

I like the G, the back seat is not that bad, compared to the RX-8. I fit, two 6ft tall people into the back of my car without any problem. Well, it's kinda Biased since I own 1.

However, it's very expensive to play with. For the money, look, etc. I say go with the RSX. You can make that thing fast and look really nice for a fraction of the price modding the a Z or a G or an S2k.

[The Youngn]

350-g35-rsx-gli, if u cant afford a g or a z why even consider a rsx or gli...

dont you mean if he cant afford an rsx or gli then why even consider a g or a z?? :thinking:

[ATK_Designs]

good catch....:goodjob:

[babowc]

350Z and S2K would be in similar price range.
I debated and I chose to get the S2k instead.

I didn't like how the Z33 felt.
Go testdrive one.. you should be able to make decision much easier that way.

[osiriskidd]

g35. period.

[JITB]

dont you mean if he cant afford an rsx or gli then why even consider a g or a z?? :thinking:


i meant if u CAN afford to get a better car, why consider cheaper ones.. like the rsx and GLI, thats like me making a choice between a civic hatch, integra, Vette, or a viper...lol thats just how i see it.

[NAG2I]

rsx doesnt fit in there really..
i'd say s2k
but i also think you should consider an rx8 if your looking for space

[ZeD]

RSX is front wheel drive and a hell of alot slower than all these cars. i dont know why you would be considering that and those other 3.

if you want a fun/moderately quick ( or fast if you get a 2007 350z )/good handling car.

it's 350z. S2k is also a good choice, but just not my favorite.. i can barely fit in it.. and it's not as fun to me.

[VIP Style]

LOL look, go with the G35, i had a 2003 model, and it drives really good, very responsive. and the back seat is not as small as you probably think. G35 FTW
I love how I am the only one that actually had an intelligent answer to his question. :rolleyes:

[koolaidman]

Most of you guys are talking about the old Z with the VQ35DE engine in it. The new Z(07) has a new engine, the VQ35HR. That thing is a BEAST. If you only need two seats then the Z is the way to go.

On the other hand, If you want 4 seats id go with either the NEW G35C or an IS350, those are quick

[MattyBlaCC]

ok...rules...

i second that! i hate people in my back seat. except for me and my *****! lol



nice ride btw

the vq35hr's are ok. i ran one the other day on 316. after i hit 4th gear he couldnt loose me. but they are fast...



ide go with the "Z"

[cdhtang]

I don' think RSX is in the group of 350z, G35 and s2k.
I will pick G35 coupe out of these.

[BTLFED]

The new G35 is a G37, not a G35.

[RX4BRDM]

I would go for the s2k. Even in stock trim you can have a ton of fun with it. It has a built bottom end from the factory so you can boost it without to much of an issue and go up to 500+ whp without changing rods or pistons. The 350z and g35 are based on the same frame and motor so its kinda tit for tat. One is more luxury the other is more sporty but they sound the same as far as exhaust note. Take them for a test drive but don't get the new CR ediition s2k its just plain ricey.

[ueyedgr8tness]

Well i can say i love the rsx type-s i drove overmind's ap1 loveds it to,the handle of it was the best thing ever but after a couple mod's i had done to my s i think i would of walked the s2k he had.

On the other hand the 350z nice looking i think,faster than the g but does not look as good,handles ok but after riding in my boy's it was just way to slow for me,it would need some major work to get it were i would want it,

So my choice for u would be the s2k,WHY? cheaper to mod than the g35 and the 350z and it handles way better than the type-s, and if it is a ap1 yes the 9k redline is like hitting the g-spot on my girl it get's the job done quicker.


Here was my s:goodjob:

:screwy:

you have to build the internals on the s2k to get that much power.. not to mention the rear diff snaps at about 350whp.. it's much more exspensive to mod an s2k than a 350/g35. and stock for stock the 350 is faster.. and the 07 350 is ALOT faster.

[cobalt9123]

umm an evo? lol
Between those i'd pic a Gcoupe, i don't like 350's and G's aren't that much slower so why not look good in a slow(er) car? An evo for the money though..or something else.

[chituntang]

G is always my pick. It is a better looking car, you can fit more people in there if needed. It is not slow. You can say the same to a RSX, but it cannot be compare to the other cars you mention.

[Mayniac]

SethFirst of all, what exactly are you looking for in a car? As far as performance, looks, handling, ect.
Will this be your project car, or just a daily drive with alittle bit of power to play with? Either way, the Rsx can't compare with any of the cars, not stock atleast. The G35 is nothing more than a wannabe 350z, the S2k is from what I heard a really nice, fun car to have. IMO it looks alot better than the others on your list.

But it all comes down to taste. Its what you want.

[Gutling]

RSX off the list, i hate 350z interior (no room at all, but to be fair im a big guy 6' 280)
G35s f-ing rule, look 10x better than z, more roomier (not huge amounts but enough to make it pleasent)
I really dont know about the s2k, i have never driven/worked on one (im a tech at a nissan dealership, i do at least 1 z or g a day lol) but i have considered getting one, they are sexy with the right wheels

well lets say here on a vs mod

s2k cost for new clutch would be 800-1100

350z cost for new clutch around 1200-1600

this is with it getting installed and the price will go up and down considering what grade of clutch u get.

A wannabe 350?! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA! Dumbest post evar! :lmfao:

[Mayniac]

A wannabe 350?! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA! Dumbest post evar! :lmfao:In alot of ways, yes.

When you compare both, the 350 will beat it hands down. Or what, you going to tell me im wrong? Better have your facts ready to go. ;)

And your right about building the internals of the s2k to make power but for the $ of buying a used car the best route woud be the s2k all he would need is some crower cams and some bolt on's and he is good.Cause i am not sure he is trying to buy a new 1 cause if he was for the $ he would be spending there are way nicer car's out there for the high 20k mark we all no that:goodjob:

YEa the 350 will slay the g for sure hands down.It just looks better that all,bt i would never buy it just cause it looks a little better cause in the performance point of view it is slower and does not handle like the 350 so i would have to agree with u on that just a little:yes:

[David88vert]

The S2K is the best driver's car out of the group - has the best balance easily.
The 350Z has more power though and still is a very good performer. Got to love the torque.
The G35 is a better daily driver, and is just classier all around.
The RSX is wrong wheel drive.

The question is - what are you going to use it for?

[BTLFED]

Oh, your right, you know more than I do even though I have been working at an Infiniti dealership for years. :rolleyes:

I don't argue with ignorance. Just because they share engine and drivetrain doesn't make them the same car.

Tell me, where is the 350Z sedan? I mean, the G35 is nothing but a "wannabe" 350Z (even though they cater to two different markets), so there must be a 350Z sedan, right? :rolleyes:

Lemme guess, you think the Nissan Murano and the Infinti FX35 are the same too? :rolleyes:

i've not seen clutch prices for 350's that high.. ever.. my buddy got a brand new JWT clutch/flywheel combo for around 800.

I wasn't saying all of that. What I was talking about, or trying to say is that the G and Z both have the same motor/drivetrain but alot of people always compare both, and the Z always wins. No matter if its on the track or street, the 350 is a better car all around IMO. No matter what you say, stock for stock the G will never beat the Z. And a Z has always been a roadster, ever since the first gen Z's came out. Sure they did a 2+2 z32 but that doesn't mean Nissan was going to make the same mistake on the z33.

[David88vert]

:yes: s2k all the way for me out of the group.Oh and dave u been riding on 2 any?

Rode up the Mustang show at MU on Sunday. Need to stretch the legs on the bike a little. Got some new toys on it, just need to finish installing one more thing to finish it for now. Looking to work on getting another bike for the track next.

So what? ONE MORE TIME: THEY ARE MARKETED TO TWO DIFFERENT MARKETS. The G is heavier, has better interior, looks better, and sacrifices a little performance TO APPEAL TO A HIGHER CLASS MARKET.

I ask you again: Do you think the Murano and FX are the same too? I mean, they are shaped similiar, and they both have a VQ35.

[ZeD]

he got the clutch and installed 2 for that price?

well.. he does know a mechanic by the name of Vuong.. he runs a garage on here :] the clutch is the exspensive part. vuong does very fair prices and extremely good work.. but for the average consumer yes, installtion+clutch is more exspensive on the Z. for some reason it hought your post said "WITHOUTH install" xP

all the "looks better stuff" is totally opinion based. some people want that sports car feeling.. which the Z delivers.. and especially on the outside.. i HATE the front of a g35.. but the side/back are sexyyyyy. it's all opinion based. but factually the Z is a better all around vehicle.

[Mayniac]

The G is heavier, has better interior, looks better, and sacrifices a little performance TO APPEAL TO A HIGHER CLASS MARKET.I have ridden in both. And they're really not that much diffrent. Sure the G has alittle bit more fansier accessories, but this kid isn't looking for all that. He's looking for what will help him get laid and maybe have alittle fun with.

Your opinion is that the G35 is better, ok. Thats cool, but "IMO" I think the Z is.


I ask you again: Do you think the Murano and FX are the same too? I mean, they are shaped similiar, and they both have a VQ35.Im sure just like the Z and G they have some diffrences. We're heading in another direction, stick to the subject.

:goodjob: Yea i was 1 time looking into getting 1 but the prices unless u no some 1 like your buddy did it is hard to get even local shops that are not dealer's to work on the z for cheap from my experience.I just need to get a hookup on a shop for my next project :yes:

[ueyedgr8tness]

It is better as a performance vehicle. It is not a better "all around" vehicle.

true that but come on this is IA he must be 1 of those katz that want the extra jump on performance but he got to be able to do with out that high class feel that u get when your in the (G):D

then vuongs your man.. he does everything but tuning..

Turbo installs/clutches/springs/coilovers ANYTHING you can think of on any car, and he stands by his work 100%. as do all of us that know him :]

[BTLFED]

Im sure just like the Z and G they have some diffrences. We're heading in another direction, stick to the subject.

Actually they are two completely different cars. The Murano is built on the Maxima platform and the FX is built on the G sedan platform. The G and The Z (Along with the FX and new EX XUVs) are all built on the "front midship" platform. The point is even though they are on the same platform and share the same engine/drivetrain, they are NOT the same and don't perform the same.

And if you think a stock 350Z pulls more chicks than a stock G35 Coupe, you are living in your own world where the color of the sky is not blue. :lmfao:

[ueyedgr8tness]

Damnm dawg we all no the g picks up more hoe's than the z but id rather be able to go faster than look better.And damn after i rode in mary's car i was like nice car but damn does all these car's have the same problems cause it cost more but this is 1 nice pos.

This guy might be wanting more performance than luxury, he's not 30+ so im sure he doesn't have to worry about all those extra little buttons and not being able to pick up chicks.

Made some changes. :p

[ATK_Designs]

S2K, 350z, G35 - you can't go wrong. All are nice and requires a bit of money to mod (350z and G35 costs a lil more, trust me, I know, I own a G).

Between a G and Z, I choose the G because I need backseat, and the G is much more classy upper class. The G is a lil heavier, so handling and power is a lil less compared to the Z. But it has more pros to outweight the cons. Nothing a lil power adder and full race suspension setup.

But each car is different. So one G may win against the Z, and lost against the other. My G dynoed better than some Z with similar mods. It's also the driver's game.

I'm trying to prove that you are wrong and I am doing it. the G is not a "wannabe" 350. They are two different cars that cater to two different markets. And yes, you made a statement about pulling ho's.

And what does age have to do with anything? That just proves you have nothing to add. Everytime you run out of stuff to say you make an age wisecrack.

And what does age have to do with anything? That just proves you have nothing to add. Everytime you run out of stuff to say you make an age wisecrack.

Of course, I expect nothing less from a KID driving a WRX. :rolleyes:A wannabe Z when it comes to performance.

And pulling ho's? Even someone with a Honda can do that. When someone goes out looking for girls he shouldn't be trying to look for beat up tunnels... I brought up the age, not cause of you. Didn't think you would take it like that. I respect older people, when they're not trying to act like they're in their mid 20's again.

And im turning 21 next year, not going to be a kid for long. ;)

It's not a wannabe Z in any aspect. THEY ARE TWO DIFFERENT CARS. :rolleyes:

THEY ARE TWO DIFFERENT CARS. :rolleyes:Duh, one is a Nissan and the other is an Infiniti. :tongue:

Duh, one is a Nissan and the other is an Infiniti. :tongue:

Do yourself a favor and don't tell me that "I better have my facts straight" again, ESPECIALLY about Infiniti's.

[Mayniac]

Do yourself a favor and don't tell me that "I better have my facts straight" again, ESPECIALLY about Infiniti's.All we were doing was nothing more than exchanging opinions. Either way, I learned something new today, thanks. ;p

:umno:

What I posted are facts. You are the one with an opinion.

[cobalt9123]

I have ridden in both. And they're really not that much diffrent. Sure the G has alittle bit more fansier accessories, but this kid isn't looking for all that. He's looking for what will help him get laid and maybe have alittle fun with.

Your opinion is that the G35 is better, ok. Thats cool, but "IMO" I think the Z is.

Im sure just like the Z and G they have some diffrences. We're heading in another direction, stick to the subject.
No they aren't that much different but the i like to make this comparison
The 350 is uglier but faster-comperable to a camaro
The G35 is sexier but heavier, better interior-comperable to a 04 GTO.
Camaro's and Gto's argue over that all the time..just like Z's and G's. Same motor..ones faster, ones sexier.
Get the G35.

[babowc]

test drive the damn things!

why not a SUBY ???

[Dr.G35]

trust me......... g35 coupe. nuff said.

[Mayniac]

trust me......... g35 coupe. nuff said.You have to give alot more info than that.

Maybe you liked how the g35 felt, maybe you liked it's looks. Doesn't mean this guy will. Post up some facts.

[BlkCD5]

LOL at noobs talking like they know ****.

[Dr.G35]

I love everything about the car except the weight. Exhaust tone you can't get anywhere else(except 350z). To me it looks better than the 350zs ,no offense to the vq bretheren (sp?) As far as handling, the s2k has got us beat unless you get a suspension kit, but will prob still not be as good because of the weight. The car feels solid........ and the exhaust note, did I mention that???!!!

[Jonflip29]

I second that. I've driven each one of those cars listed and not one felt like the G. The little power that we have is there when you need it. The car looks good day and night. Better looking than the Z, in my opinion and the backseat is big enough for a grown person. Now this car may not be designed to fit 3 to 4 people for a road trip, but it does have the space needed for 2 people w/o a problem. 350z is perfect if you plan on using it on weekends, on the track or if you a lonely person and travel by yourself more than most times. S2K is a nice car but isn't balance good enough. The stock power band is wide but not strong and its handling is pretty good for being a short wheel based car. The RSX...well its perfect car for your girl. Not very exciting or attractive to drive. Everybody has got one, and as for being a Honda, you'd have to drop some serious cash to stand out from the rest of them. If you'd like a better look at these Gs and Zs, PM me for details on our monthly meets. Good luck on your sale.

LOL at noobs talking like they know ****.Just cause some of our join dates say, 07 that means we're noobs? Coming from someone with an Accord as their signature that doesn't faze me at all.

[ueyedgr8tness]

Wow this thread got way off topic!! pls get back on topic im sure drama is not why the thread was made.

Thank's

[JBrakeS2K]

Well anyways, back onto topic. At first I wanted a G35 so bad. They are awesome, more luxurious then the 350 and pretty much give you the same power. The 350 is a very popular car on the road now and I try to be different, then again so is my S2k, at least in georgia (not in ohio where im originally from). The RSX Type S is the same, but then again it is very powerful for the money and i love K motors...mmm. S2k, my baby. I love my car man, vtec is digusting with my set up (headers/full exhaust and intake)but dont get me wrong, its good stock too;) . I cant wait until i can afford a turbo kit! But there is no room at all. Its a jet cockpit, no joke. Everything is for you though. Its made to comfort the driver, which I dig. My car sits 29 days out of the month on avg. I keep it as my toy, and thats it. Definitely would be harsh as a dd, so I drive my 89 EF Hatch. All im trying to say is it really depends on what you want man, if you want a DD I'd go with the g35 if u got the cash, or a RSX if your on a tighter budget. Non daily, S2K FOR SURE. But then again, these are my tastes and not yours. If you want anymore insight on s2000's let me know. Good luck, either way all 4 cars are sick and kudos for good taste.:goodjob:

[beckham723]

s2000 of course. performance is good and super good looking compare to all four.

350z = fun fun fun.

yes but they are also slow slow slow... i already beat 2 in my cobalt:bump:

I get compliments about my G a lot. I really like it. I drove around downtown today and at every red lights, I got people said that they like it a lot (both old and young people) :) It's nice to hear.

The G insured a lot less than the Z and RSX. Don't know about S2K though.

[JBrakeS2K]

my s2k insured cheaper then the g by like 300$ a year?

[Jonflip29]

fvck, G35s are ghey, don't get them......get the S2K or the 350z.

hooray, 1 less G35 on teh road.

I can't believe you would say such a horrible thing....haha.

My G isn't no where near is nice as his^^ and I still get the same reaction from other people (young and old). I get soccer moms in their Chevy Tahoes and their husbands driving, breaking their necks as they drive pass me. Haha its funny as hell. Oh and then theres those ignorant ones who don't know the difference between the G35 and the Skyline. They believe its a JDM Skyline all day.

[admedlin]

I'm biased with the S2k, but here is my very non-professional opinion on these cars:

350Z - Great power, very fun to drive, great torque, great sound, nice modificationability (I know, goin' George Bush on you ;)), good price for the power

G35C - I haven't driven one, but this is what others have said: very very smooth, classy, a little more refined than the 350, not quite as quick, sounds great still, still easy to modify. Mostly for looks, but will go when you want it to

S2K - if you get one, get an AP1 for higher revving, or AP2 for newer and better styling (IMO). Not nearly as much power as the 350 or G, not nearly as much torque, looks sexy, girls love convertibles, easy to modify with a lot of JDM parts for it, best handling of the 4, good price for the highest power/liter engine on the market

RSX - looks nice, more laidback I guess? still have good power, but FWD ftl! My friend has an '05 type-s, responds well to basic modifications, has plenty of USDM and JDM aftermarket support, the most room of the group mentioned.

If you are looking for classy cars around $20-30k range, also consider the Volvo S60R slightly used, or the Mazdaspeed 6 slightly used if you want a little more room. Those are INSANE sleepers with over 300hp, 6MT sedans.

If you like the S2K, buy mine :) ~3,500 miles, $28k

[Jonflip29]

Nah its cool b/c everybody gets slow sometimes. I wasn't saying your car defines who you are as a person, but it does show how your carry yourself.

[cobalt9123]

yes but they are also slow slow slow... i already beat 2 in my cobalt:bump: hahaha :goodjob:
I still say go G35...like them better..but i'd say you drive all of them first.

They word start's with a (C) for how they are :yes: Now u do the rest.

[dp32185]

my opinion may be slightly biased...since i own a s2000, but whatever. take what you want.

s2000 is more reliable. i've never had an issue, period with n/a s2000s. my buddy with a 350 is always going into the dealership for minor defects and worrying about the famous oil consumption issue.

i'll admit. the 350z is a great city car with all the HP and TQ. it has style and sounds stupid purdy in stock form. but so is a s2k. it drinks less gas...and rides on rails all day long.

there's hardly any room for anything except another passenger in a s2k. quite similar in the 350z as well, but maybe a bit (not too much) more room for racking stuff since it's a hatch style coupe. 350z is quiter, and has options for more features than the s2k. if you don't plan on driving up in the mtns. or track...g35c is probably a nice luxurious city car too. it's feels heavier than a 350z, but it looks dope when it's lowered on some deep dish set.

if you want a all around fun car and dont want to compensate anything...i think 350z is the way to go. if you want pure performance...s2000. not suggesting that the s2000 is the greatest performer among the list, but it's less practical than everything on the list. care for more luxury than sporty? g35c. if you run short of change, get a civic Si or RSX

tried to point stuff out while being neutral. again...it's completely my opinion so if you think otherwise, don't try to wipe me down because i don't come back to back up my opinion. now rep me for typing all this :D good luck finding your next car :goodjob:

Well i did not sift through the 7 pages so I don't know if anyone left a response like mine but here goes:

I've owned the RSX type S, I liked it. Yes it wasn't as fast as the others but it was still a nice driving car, insurance and gas were not that bad either.

Friend had an 07 350z , he traded it in for an 08 GTI, if that tells you anything. Yes the car is fast and fun to drive...sometimes. The thing was (as I was told) the 350 is not usable in everyday life. No space for anyone else but a single passenger, only a little room in the hatch for some stuff. Gas got super expensive, cause lets face it, he did not buy the z to putts around like an old man. Also insurance was expensive (and he was a 28y/o driver with a good history) not to mention I felt the interior was cramped.

Friend had an 06 s2k, I hated the interior, so cramped. It was a great looking car, and handle good. However I hated the power delivery. Once she got up into Vtec, nice and quick, but around town and down low in the rpm she was better then average honda but still nothing amazing IMO. I find that low end tq is much more usable then super high rpm power. THink about it, at what point in the average normal day are you going to need/want/have the ability to really open her up and not get in trouble? If you need to take a car to 7k to use her full power, not that great as a DD is it? Now don't get me wrong if I wanted/had time for a second weekend car this might be it. On twisty drives through the Mt's and such, awesome awesome car, I just do not think it's a nice everyday car.

Friend had a G35 (same guy who had a s2k) I like it so much better then his last car (except his Fx, but he hated that thing). Nice balance of sport and luxury. Fun driver, nice fair amount of room and it looked hot. Sounded good in stock form, plus has nice tq for everyday driving. If it were me this would be the way to go.

As it is I drive a Mini Cooper S (as a gap to the 135i :) ) and I like it. Decent TQ for around town, killer gas milege, and handles supurb. No room in the back for PPL, but I removed the seat and put in the delete kit for it, now I have tons of space for loading things in.

recently i was looking to buy a 350z, but i ended up buying a s2000, and i fell in love with it. i would go with the s2k if you can fit comfortably in it. i ended up totalling it , but it was fun for a little while. i'll prob get another one.
