Re: 2006 GT Prices
I couldn't agree with you more on that last note...
Even all the new "sport luxury" cars have oodles of horsepower, the gearing on them kills em quick. I can't count how many times I have eaten up Luxury sport cars with 300+ HP with my minimally modified 04 GT.
Still for the price of an 06 G35 - you can find a nice 03-05 Z06. Much more bang for your buck.
I will say this, the 350z feels like a sports car despite the bit of slugishness due to the weight. (Like I mentioned before, it feels heavy). The interior of the car screams performance oriented and the seats really do keep you planted firm, which our ponies are seriously lacking in.
Throw in a 3K turbo kit to an 18K 350z and and the extra 80-120HP you add will put a smile on your face really really quickly. I am sure with some more minor mods you can catch that Z06 at the strip and maybe even on the track. (Not the 2006 Z06 mind you - that thing is unreal).
-just my .02 - hope you guys don't take citing other cars as blasphemy. LOL
