Default Time to say Goodbye

Well I traded in my RS1 Tc for a Blue 350Z. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This car is cool looking and very fast. Goodbye to scionlife and everyone here.

I too would like to know what you got for your trade.

Were you unhappy with the tC for any reason? or just an upgrade?

I can understand that trade. I bought my wife a used Z and we love it.

It's just what I didn't need though, something else to sink money into.

Strup headers, Strup test pipes, Motordyne plenum spacer, Nismo exhaust, Nismo cai, dubs...lol.

please do tell how much you got for the tC, and if you don't mind the numbers on the Z as well. i like to see what kind of deals ppl get. don't worry, i'm not one to critsize like a lot of ppl.

Z is pretty cool, but the steering and shifting is too heavy in my test. well, the steering is heavy in the tC as well. besides a few cheap designs on the interior, the car itself is nice. not many, if any, reasonable priced cars can beat the sweet exhaust note of the Z!

this should go to off topic because it has nothing to do with drivetrain & power....but the 350z has kind of taken over the thread so i'm moving this to the "all other vehicles" forum. hopefully you haven't left before telling the scionlife members what you got for the tC.

Well I had saved some money and wanted to either turbo my Tc or buy a fast stock car. I had bad luck when I turboed my 97 eclipse, so I chose a different car. I got 14,400 for my TC with 30,900 on the odometer. The trade was ok, but not great since its a limited edition. I couldn't pass up the Z though, it was a old mans weekend car and he traded it for a new hummer. Its a 04 with 5,800 miles; it had a Nismo spoiler, Nismo exhaust, Nismo clutch, Nismo 5 spoke rims, and a fram airhog air filter. Its bright blue and was 21,999 before tax. Im in debt for six years now , but couldn't be in a better car for the money. Thanks to everyone for all the commets.
