2015+ 370Z Nismo: One of the sexiest cars for the price I think. And the interior is beautiful. One of the most fun cars to do a nice wheel/ suspension setup on.

R32 Skyline GT-R: Twin turbo Nissan lifestyle is something I'm not sure I'm ready to deal with again.

2015+ Mustang GT: Shoot me for mentioning it...

WRX STI: I don't blow fat enough clouds.

300ZX TT: You'll be a broke 40yr old before you know it. But your Z will finally look and run great.

FE EVO X: #$%& I shoulda bought the Final Edition fml. It's a scam and everyone knows it but dat interior badge.

Challenger 392: Looks so good. I'm not ready to pay for docking fees to store my boat though lol.

Porsche GT4 or BMW M4 maybe Mercedes CLK 63 AMG. Def one of these if I have money . if I don't , Evo stays as a toy car.

Same, love high revving N/A engines and they're a dying breed at this point. Also one of the better looking M cars and BMWs in general over the last decade.

I wouldn't let go of a clean IX either if I had one. My bone stock X on the other hand, while I really enjoy it, is a dime a dozen. But if I ever did part ways with it for a M I'd find myself in another Evo eventually.

Like most of you, I wouldn't trade. Only add to. With that being said, I'd love to have an VIII or IX and an AP2

I looked at B6 RS4's - since I need 4 door and awd car but you can't find one with low miles. So i got the evo X i also have 911/996 turbo.

you should go out and drive few cars and see what fits you best. I also believe that, you should just buy another car and keep the current one.

I ended up selling my X and used the money to buy a Formula Vee and a ram 1500 to tow it. I Loved the X though.

Actually just stumbled on one for a crazy good deal and silly low interest rate (1%) so my wife tossed down a pile of money she had saved towards her dream car and here we are:





This is a limited M2 they only made 150 of them, it drives like a dream. Very happy with it so far!
