It all really depends what you want... you have tons of money and want to upgrade you might like the RW 350z... if you want best bang for your buck and AWD supereconocar like handles get a IX.

i'm a previous 350z owner, the Z was quiet smooth and soft, too soft, and chic's loved it, actually i think i see more chics driving 350z's than guys

its expensive to mod the 350z and to properly turbo it will cost you around 20 grand

the evo is loud, rough, solid, hard and FAST, more guys will look at your car than chics but so what, the evo attracts people who actually know something about cars

mods are cheap for the evo and for very little money you can make it an absolute beast that will murder any car on the road, the evo IX has valve timing control (MIVEC) on the intake cam which allows the turbo to spool faster and has an even bigger potential than the evo VIII

If you're planning on changing turbo's then stick with the VIII, if you wonna stay close to stock with minimal mods then get the IX, or if you want to pick up chics and cruise in a 2 seater coupe then get the Z

choise is yours

You should get a 350Z. I mean, it's slower, uglier, less practical, handles worse, and they are more popular now that Civics.

yea, here in south florida you see as many Z s as you do civics. im not gonna lie though i think a white 350 convertible 6 spd is just plan pimp. but if you want some damn good power that will push you back into your seat get yourself an evo.

i would think so, especially on the highway, but we're talkin about at least 20 or 30 grand to properly prepare the engine for a twin turbo setup, but then imagine what that money could do for an evo!!
