choices, choices, choices
I got word from my parents that in may i am going to get a new car as my present. Now I have two choices. Of course my first choice is the 03 maxima, a 6sp or a my second choice is a 6sp 350z. Now im in total love with the maximas, power, finess, and the room. a z would definetly satisfy my power carve, and its pretty damn sexy looking. So i am asking the board to help me make a decision. which one.
oh and one more thing, I hear a rumor about the 04 maxima getting a v8 rwd. Is there any truth to this? if so i might just well wait for that. i can wait a year. my 98 maxima keeps me happy. damn now that i relize it this will be my third car.

Just don't count on insurance for the Z to be any lower. If that's not an issue the Z would be your best bet.
I'm assuming you're still in your teens so grab life by the handle and enjoy driving the Z. Deal with the "family" car when you're about to make that change

damn, i never saw this angle. i'm 17, so yeah i guess the z would be funner to drive. right now i'm in love with my 98 max. but the z would be heaven. does anyone know what kind of aftermarket parts are planned for the z? turbo maybe??
oh and what about the 04 max's specs?

hahahahah!
Voltman and Klown...stop hating! Go to a corner and cry because your mom can't buy you a car. 
Don't be so jealous of the guy. Hey, if his mom has the money to buy her son a brand spanking new car...why not? Redrum...you're only 17 and this is already going to be your third car. Woah. Anyways, definitely go with the 350Z! 
Just like soundmike said, you're young...enjoy it!

alright thanks everyone for your opinions.
I was thinking about a g35 coupe also but aren't they like 50 grand.....hey i may be spoiled but not that spoiled. anyways i guess i will go with the 350Z. and no voltman mommy wont be paying for the mods. I will be paying them myself. My 18/hr job should be enough to cover all the mods. oh and 2k2.6sp. my mom doesn't know that its a 287 hp rwd car. im going to keep it a secret. sometimes i dont even know what i did to deserve the cars. i feel guilty sometimes. but i dont mind

I would rather have a new RX-8; Reason: seats 4.I just can't fathom having a 2 seater. besides my Midget but I never drive it anyway.
I'd say if mummy wants to buy you something really cool have her drop the G's on an Evo 7 or a Subaru WRX STi.

But if I had the money that's how I'd start out.
It's an auto but remember it's still a Skyline.
Besides Bomex, C-west and Veilside can help you make it look like it's Bigger brother easily.
Oh I wish I had. $30,000.

I would get the g35 coupe..but that's just me. It's pretty much the same price as the 350z. I agree with maxima06071..wait for the evo 8 or the sti! Those are much better cars. 0-60 in under 5..all wheel drive..a z killer..

No seriously, I've seen importers selling Skylines for less than 20k but most wouldn't ship to the U.S.A.
