i dissagree
i think he can definately find an early 90s TT for the price of a 98 Max with 60k miles.

If you want a TTZ... it probably will not be as reliable as your maxima, given it will be older and have higher milage, plus possibly more abused before you.. those cars are not made to be driven easy.

The Z is good if you live in a warm climate and don't have to worry about snow or bad storms.. or you have a second car to use in the winter time..

thats pretty good, you have to remember those cars are not too quick stock but can be made fast very fast with not too many bolt ons too

I say you CAN NOT find a nice Z for 15 grand. The one you will find will be hit everywhere, raced, and have mad miles. That means u will have to put few more grand into to make it run ok. you dont invest into a z, rx7, or supra with no money because playing with those cars will cost you.

Just keep the max. You probably have money to spare so pimp out the max. Either the looks or all the bolt ons or both Autos are fast too. You can run like 15-15.3 with most bolt ones. Some 5spd cant(because of the driver) even run that fast. On the highway 5spd and auto are the same speed.

Its your call. Pimped out Max or beat up Z??
