Good to know that Nismo nor you can comprehend English. He wants a cheap DIFFERENT car for winter because he doesn't think a 350Z will be any good in the snow...

*Reads the thread back through with the correct mindset.

So.... I'd be happy to help find you a 350z (V35's have been in our family since they came out) Watch out for the electronics in the car, earlier years wiring harnesses had terrible contacts which will corrode. I'll assume you're looking at a manual so in the 2005+ look for oil consumption issues. (Quick to find out if you take it for a test drive) Documented maintenance is really a must for buying one used.

Civic is pretty much the normal beater, you cant really go wrong with FWD.

This is one weird thread.

Just buy a set of winter tires and an extra set of wheels. Get studded tires if you're really nervous about driving in the winter, if they're legal where you are, that is. You and your Honda will do just fine, as long as you remember to take it easy.

I got around fine when it snowed here over xmas.

Any light awd/fwd with slightly lower pressure tires will suffice.

Any FWD/AWD + Winter tyres = Winter ready vehicle

Wow this thread is crazy times.

So the OP wants to get the 350z, then a cheap winter car. Get a jeep, or an old mitsubishi shogun (might be called pajero where you are)

If you live in the U.S., get a Jeep Wrangler 4x4. It's cheaper than your Nissan, can be driven summer and the harshness of winter, gas mileage would be about the same compared to the Nissan 350Z. Even if you buy the optional hard top cover for the Jeep, you are still spending below the price tag of your Nissan.

my uncle had a nissan 350z in some custom race-modded version made by some modding company

it goes pretty nicely.

god knows why you'd specifically want one as a summer car... it's a hard-top
you get a soft top as well.

350zs are niiiice. I would have one, not sure how you would get on with a 3.5L rear-driver in the winter though

Also, you lot are boooorrrriiiinngggggg. Where does OP live?

Studded/winter tires? Pffft. Just keep the normal tires on it and take it easy. That will also allow you to have some slooooowwwww sideways fun.

stop being such a bitter old crony-cunt. im sorry your life sucks and you were ostracized as a teen, really, but get over it.

btw, brain fried? afaik the rear carbon-fibre wing on my uncle's strosek 350z cost £1000. how are you getting the car for $2k?

afaik he paid ~£35k for it new. so get a real basis for your shitty excuses for an 'insult'.

He's not getting it for 2k nor for the snow...

Read the fucking thread and learn to comprehend English. He wants a 350Z for summer (good weather) and a cheap (2k) car for when it's snowing.

I thought you were doing some faggy English major, lot of good that did you.

yeah i do a "faggy english major", you useless cunt, and i can tell you for a fact that john ashbery writes more lucidly than the OP.

nothing is clear about it. that's why my initial post showed confusion: he wants a $2k car? he wants a snow car? he wants a summer-car?

what sort of faggy existence do you lead, anyway? astrophysics major? great job, cunt. im reporting you asinine fucks.

dude, read the thread. It isn't very clear, but he wants the 350Z for summer, but is worried it might not cope in the winter, so is looking for a cheap winter capable car as well

bennis that is why i was confused. the later mentions of '$2k budget' made me even more confused.

reading comprehension isn't my problem - writing is his, apparently.

You fail badly at english comprehension pal.

He's buying a 350Z for the summer, since it will be crap in snow he wants a 2k replacement for his Civic.
