On top of that, its gets decent gas mileage for what it is and there is a HUGE tuner market so you can make it truly unique if you want. You can also build up a pretty potent track car using the Z as a base if you want.

So there is my vote anyway. Sure, it aint perfect, but it sure gives alot for the price asked. Its very similar to the Z06 in that way. I guess I would call it the poor mans Z06........
Thats a great choice and its a pity Nissan put in the engine they did - if only it was a little faster, but if you are willing to accept the drop in performance that is a great choice (well - except for the rear strut tower brace in the tri=unk )

Isn't there supposed to be a 4.5l more powerful versin on the cards? That would change everything.

But great choice.. that one slipped my ming totally.
