Might sell MX for ZX

Post by Guest »

Well I love my MX but Im just sick of it, theres to many probs with it, not fast, no money to make it fast, I feel like Im gonna break my legs getting in and out of it(6'2)I dont know its just a pain in my *** now.<p>I was looking at prices and figured if I saved a bit and found a good deal on the auto trader for a 300ZX. I'd get one by the summer. Well now im hering insurence can get up to $10000 for one. Thats crazy, well I think Ill just have to wait, anyone have any input?

2+2
and Twin Turbo<p>
But I don't get it.. put in a 2.5l, that is 3000$-4000$ canadian at A-spec.<p>And you'll get something weight: power rather similar.. It is up to you..<p>----<p>I just saw the other prob..

Twin turbo models are hard to find in a 2 seater, most are 2+2 auto's. They also had a convertible 300zx.

You could just rip the front seats out of the mx, or rip out the back ones and move the front ones back there. :D

haha ya true" :) but ya obviously theres more reasons then that if i wanna get rid of my mx, i love the car in general, buttt, all the things i want done with it will cost way too much, new seats, new engine, new suspesion, painted different color, redo interior, new rims and tires, new exaughst, rear mud guards, and the list goes on, so i might aswell spend half the money and get a car that has everything i want, and ive always wanted a zx.

More potential from the zx too cause its real wheel drive, if you have any questions, go to www.zcar.com its a great chat forum, and they have sections for every Z ever made and also a very cool car chat forum. With Z's its more of a family,a lot of that has to do with how long Z's have been around, and theres a lot of older guys on the forum. where as here there's more tension, but its still a great site.

No problem man, one thing my friend did with his Z for insurance is he had his mom call in and set it up, when they asked if it was 2+2 or 2 seater, she said, "I don't know, I'm pretty sure it has a back seat." So he ended up paying for a 2+2 on insurance instead of a 2 seater, and it wasn't even on purpose, sometimes you just have to love a mom's ignorance about cars, lol.

Definitely go for the Z TT, they are kinda expensive, i think your better off buying a 2 seaters and turbo it later, you'll save money that way as a friend of mine did,,,<p>At least theres someone who might understand what i am going through,,, :D :D

Ya Im glad people understand my plight, I love mx-3's but for me its time to move on, I just want a car I dont have to do anyhting to, z's already look awesome. I think for price sake Ill go with the 4 seat N/a version. That way its good for insurance and I could pick one up for around 9000 if I look hard enough.

I almost bought a ZX TT a couple of weeks ago for 6,000 U.S. Had 400HP. Insurance was over $4,000 U.S. for 6 months. I'm only 18 so that makes a huge difference. I'm now looking for an N/A.
