RIP my 06 tC..

Lost control after having to swerve off the road to avoid hitting a Mini-van that slammed on its brakes....

Couldn't have asked for a better first car!

Wow. Are you gonna get another tC?

 

Yeah, luckily no one was hurt!!

Another tC...I don't think so...I will highly recommend them tho!

I want something sportier and rear wheel drive now...the accident didn't scare me, since i was going the speed limit and cruising with traffic...just had to make a quick decision, unfortunately that resulted in the crash..but no one was hurt....The cops agreed i made the right decision...

A lot of my friends think i should remain loyal to Toyota...and a part of me always will have a soft spot for them...

My current choices are
05 Lexus IS300
04-06 Nissan 350Z
04-06 Infiniti G35

all around 21-24k


I'm open to any suggestions....

 

ouch...gotta lay off the tailgatting...glad your alright. just gotta get back on the horse and take it slow.

 

Get the G. Everyone and their mother has a 350. If it was up to me I'd get a new MS3 but that's not RWD.

Looks like the tC took that hit well.

 

if you are considering a z or g35 then the IS shoulnt even be in the equation. i will say this though if you get a Z or G35 plan on putting in premium and with the Z only 1 person can ride with you.

 

go for the g35! i want one =(

oh yah and sorry for your loss..

 

my buddy has an IS and they're kinda cool...im leaning towards the G35...but i can get a newer 350z for less money

 

i wasn't even tailgating...my buddy and i figured i was about 50-60 feet back (had the cruise control on, which in retrospect probably slowed my reaction time)

the real problem was my bald tires...and i was actually gonna order new ones this week...lol

 

the is300 is a great car, true, it doesn't have the straight line power of the z or g, but they are great looking cars, well built, and one of the easiest cars to do a 2JZ-GTE engine swap, which means it will rape the 350z and g

 

screw the g and the z. altezza all the way baby~

 

haha, if I got an IS, i'd totally Altezza it out, no doubt

 

Lotus Elise or Exige

 

I wish i took a pic of the guard rail....big a$$ dent...my buddy went up to the scion and patted it saying "well done scion..well done"

 

really??
cause thats even in the same ballpark...

and even if i found a used elise...it'd cost me a chunk of change to fix it if anything happened

 

350z yes.....g35, no, imitation of a luxury sport car if you ask me tooooo common, lexus is 350, Im in love ith the IS so obviously the IS 350, no doubt, 311 hp compared to 280 that 350 n g35 get, no way, and g35 is slower than a z, its heavier. g35, 14.2, 350 upper 13's........now think about it a beautiful sexy, lexus is.....14.2, some say upper 13, and 311 or 306 hp....and the back seats! Did I mention the Is iS gorgeous, and the lexus driving experience is unparalleled, only by them damn germans!

Plus your lexus lights wont go foggy after a year like the g35's. all the old ones I see, the clear plastic is foggy, and yellowy, cheap materials used to make it, obviously, and the layout of the g35's head lights is not intricate, luxury is supposed to be. The head lights look as if the just went with the easiest simplest efficient design! NO NO

350z, tho.....lights are much better, at least the front, the backs, to triangularly simple, and then the reverse underneath, JUST RECTANGLEs, again

Not to mention the is looks like a 4 door tc, so youd still have a chip off the old block, Ive tried to find the designer of the tc but have had no luck, I was wondering if he designed the IS, cause of the similarities.

Back on topic, 350z sound system is horrible too, my bro has one and its weak, and the 350 is UNCOMFORTABLE unlike the tC. Which you know the lexus would be a driving experience!

But you can get a goooooood deal lyk my bro did on an older 350z, without the fogged lights lol, unlike g35's. As you can see im not to fond of infiniti, nor should I be theres nothing to be fond of, its justs a nissan with a navi, and an extra speaker or two.......as for lexus.......well, the only car in the lexus lineup that looks lyk a toyota except the suv;s is the es which is still differentiated!

Go with the is, if you can get it for 20k, if not look towards the 350.....
dont even take a gander at that g35, although the new one is sexy, but still imitation luxury like acura!

 

I thought u said is 350......with that said.....350z allll the way!

 

good to hear ur ok! and as for your 3 car choices i say g35 (or Z for 2nd choice pretty much the same car the G is just baller.) they sound amazing stock, and you can still ride around with 3 ppl if you want!

 

get a z

 

I was just looking closely at the picture. Are those leather seats in there?

Glad to hear your okay though.
