in an STi?


I like 350Zs. However, if I wanted a track car I'd get an Evo. If I wanted a fun to drive street car a G35 would be a contender. The only way I could see someone buying a 350Z is if they want a track toy, and they're Nissan people from the get-go.

Or if you wanted a RWD V-6 that handles good for under $20,000 with Brembo brakes.

I daily drive an '04 STi and sometimes wish I had an '05 for it's quieter ride. But then again, I have stiff coilovers and Azenis on mine. lol
Yes. Really.

Sounds like you want the mod friendly ugradability of an STI, and the panty dropping power of a Z -- Just go get a C6 and be done with it.
I am laughing even harder now.

I wouldnt buy a sti or the Z.

Not specifically to this poster, but:
Y'all hate a lot on the poonany power of the 350. The girls you know that drop their panties over cars... how much do they really know about cars? Once those chicks know that the car is "expensive" then that's pretty much it. Throw some lambo doors on a 350z and people will be swinging off of your nuts all day. You can pop your doors and pimp outside of the grocery store all day and I'm BETTiNG that everyone will stop and ask questions. My buddy steve had a 350z back in high school and one of the first things he did was some lambo doors. He knew it didn't really do anything for the car. Even still, your everyday schmuck or gold-digger was all about that stuff and would stop to gawk and ask questions.

350 has more sex appeal than the STi, but for a DD I'd definately choose the STi... because it dominates in every other category.
