Unfortunately the time has come...

Yes... I will be trading my car in within the next cpl months. Trying to put cats on the car ontop of popping my valve covers off and seeing a cracked valvespring at only 56K miles, I've had enough with the damn thing. Too many problems, and tired of sinking unnecessary money into it. Im calling up the local meineke to have them swap over new stock exhaust manifolds + ypipe, along with installing SS take-off springs + shocks sometime within the next week. The question is, what am I getting next?? I might look past domestics and might get somethin shnazzy like a G35. Maybe a goat? Maybe a lexus? Maybe a ford? Maybe a nice crusier and get another thirdgen to work with... Maybe a firehawk if i find one... who knows... anything but my camaro. Ill be selling my uninstalled sunoco hood if anybody wants to buy it, its all prepped for paint, along with all the basic bolt ons like transparent MTI lid, pacesetter headers, etc etc. This car is a serious headache, im sure its just mine with the problems, considering im owner #7 (it was a lease car in its hayday). So, toss some ideas. Im not waiting around for the new camaro. :lol:

[GrandmasterCow]

well my girlfriends dad is looking at most of the same cars u mentioned except for the goat i went with him and test drove them all myself as well just to see what they are like.... the lexus is350 was simply a great car... decent power a badass interior and all the gizmos you could imagine then some the price tag is however around 38 grand.... the g35 is a nice car handles very well and has nice balance the interior is pretty nice so all in all a decent choice.... as for the gto the only one i drove was a 2004 so it had the ls1 had an excellent ride (had after market susp parts on it so that may have helped) and thought the interior was good the seats are excellent and much more fun to drive then either of the other 2 as it actually feels fast (the lexus and g35 are decently quick but for some reason they just dont feel fast especially the lexus)

[Tsar]

G35 :w00t: dibs on the shotty :lol:

[DaSkinnyGuy]

I would get a goat

[BigAls87Z28]

I have seen 04 Goats for 20k, and I have seen 05 and 06 Goats in the mid 20s.

They have a really nice black SS with @5000 miles and a nice rear valiance on there for $29,000 ... where is that place located?

[WildBillyT]

G35 coupe looks nice, handles nice, but is underpowered IMO.

nothin a pair of hairdryers can't fix...

[88BluBird]

I agree with Tim.. Bryner usually has some great cars..my friend has a G-35 with some mods and its a damn nice car..depending on what your budget is BMW has a twin turbo i believe its a 335. i hear ppl are starting to mod these cars as well. on the domestic side the new Charger is an awesome as well as the mustan(yea i know blah blah blah lol) either one is well worth the money and are easily modded.. just my $.02

[j0n]

IMO look for a used chrysler 300c srt8...there's one on the n2s forums with a cai, no cats, and 100 shot that pulls 03/04 cobras

jenkintown, near philly. i see their ads all the time in the local auto shopper and i have heard good things about the dealership. another option is to call up flemington chevrolet and ask for alison o'neil(AliWantsAnSS) and see what she has around or can get easily.

[lastcall190]

Sucks man, one less f-body in town :( Not like there are millions either hahaha... Go for a Goat, there are still plenty of new ones around if that interests you, my friend has on I'm very impressed with the interior and power.

[GP99GT]

i have a mustang i can sell you

[unstable bob gable]

Don't buy a friggin' Lexus. The Japanese car industry doesn't need your money!:evil:

[camarokev]

chants.....

wait for 2009! wait for 2009! :-D

but, if not, then I'm a vote for the goat (ha... it rhymes) lol. Fastest car I've ever driven (after some major mods, mind you) but still they are badass. Add a tiger tail on the back and ur set :D

[Untamed]

I would also support the GTO choice. Plenty of new and low milage used one's around. Pick your color and year and you'll find one under 25k.

[maroman88]

blue w/ the blue interior GTO FTW!!!!

[enRo]

Even tho the 2004's are LS1s, I would hate having 1 exhaust pipe sticking out. Altho, I found a 2004 GTO, competition yellow, with 15k miles for 20K... 6 speed, black w/yellow lace leather... im gonna check it out on Monday if its still there. Cant seem to find any 05's and 06's with the color choice/tranny that I want around these parts.

But as of now, Im set on a goat or G35. I am really going thru with trading my car in, because I started demodding it earlier today :cry: O well.

[Savage_Messiah]

:cry: RIP Elusive Striped Katfish

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

I kinda figured this after talkin with ya. good luck, but yeah my vote would got to a different 4th or a goat. goats are surprisingly nice cars, and now plentiful and fairly cheap

[lastcall190]

What color combo/trans combo do you want? I know of a red A4 '05 for ~21...

[qwikz28]

one of my good buddies mark has a g35 coupe (and i have driven the sedan before)... i have a few comments to make. first off, those cars are heavier than they need to be. compared to a goat, which is only 100 pounds heavier then an f-body,there is no need for the weight. the handling isn't all that great, its not bmw status, and i have never driven a goat to compare it to, but from my understanding, the GTO just won the f-car stock class in the scca i believe. those cars are slow too, you're gonna hate you're life going from a v8 to a weaksauce high 14 second car. and personally, my biggest gripe about the car, is the nameplate. Nissan consistantly ranks among the lowest of the Manufacturers in reliability. usually around the bottom 10%. my buddies 90k mile maxima has blown the trans, diff, clutch, all in the past month. i can go on forever with people i have heard say "i will never buy another nissan."

besides, do you really wanna be another g35 owner? be original. i'm not saying you should get a goat, all i'm saying if your gonna spend the coin for a g35, don't. because there are far better alternatives.

out of my group at school, i have teh camaro, and then there is ragi's 300whp VW, pete's bmw 330, and then mark's g35. and we always crack on the G35 cause his was the most expensive out of all of our cars and is by far the worst performing out of all of them.

Preferably Black or Yellow, M6 is a def. I would have to pass on the Auto, thanks tho man.

[98tadriver]

hey stop trying to be like me by cracking/breaking valve springs! lol

Go out and get yourself a multi-colored-primer 1985 honda crx for $200.00 and then install a twin turbo rotary engine with NAWWWWWWWWWWZZZ!

[oh one ls1 SS]

dont get rid of it for something slower.. i got rid of my SS for a TL. thats a great car but 2 months later i got rid of that slow POS and got a WS6 haha

[enRo]

Im getting rid of it cuz I want something other than an Fbody, since that is all I ever owned/drove. And an LS1 GTO is just an LS1 fbody with a fat chick strapped to the roof :rofl:

[lastcall190]

...what the?? :rofl:

There are tons of brand new 06s still out there, so long as it hasn't sold, there's one at Callaremi in Mt Olive, Black M6 with the 18s...

For $34,000 :shock:


And the fat chick phrase was the weight difference between the two lol

[lastcall190]

Yes sadly they don't realize that the car is now TWO years old, regardless of mileage :( www.pontiac.com/gto has listings of many available GTOs still for sale, they actually had a TV commercial a few days ago for them.

I thought the phrase was hilarious btw hahaha
