Hey whats up guys, just thought i woudl introduce myself into the community. I used to own a daytona blur 04 350z but have been wanting to go AWD so i can drive all year round.

it was an 04 z with 17k mile and bald tires and an intake and exhaust and i got the dealer to trade straight with me for an 05 evo8 with 10k miles on it.

i thought i got a pretty good deal, what u guys think??

anyway im in des moines, IA and so far i have had it for a week and i am totally in love with the car. here are some pics so far.

 

congrats..the evo looks sexy in red.

 

It sounds like you got a hell of a deal!

 

you got an 05 Evo 8 wil 10K on it straight up for a 04 with 17K? good job.

 

ahh, you got the charles gabus one, looks good

 

Welcome aboard. That sounds like a good deal to me

 

thanks guys, and yes its the gabus one, i saw it and was like HMMM said straight trade or im leavin he said i can't believe it but the boss man said lets do it ahhhahaha so i said why the F not.

 

Great trade for you! Sounds like you are happy so far. Miss the Z even a little?

 

Excellent choice, i would have went with the Evo as well.

Welcome to the forums!

 

damnit gerth....whered my posts go?

 

ya i miss it a little bit but dammit the AWD just makes me go w000000000t

 

You got a hell of a deal IMO...congrats.

 

It depends on who the previous owner was on this one. If you've already had clutch problems I know who it was...

 

Awesome deal on that trade man...Congrats on the car, hope you enjoy it...

 

Wow, yeah, an 05 Evo is worth much more than an 04 Z. That's an amazing deal. You upgraded your car, got a newer year with less miles and paid nothing extra. That was a major steal unless something is wrong with the Evo that you don't know about.
