Wow some quick responses. :)

 

Supra Joe:

Why?

I'm not sure. I seem to keep a car for 1.5>2 years and then switch usually.

Always liked Supra's and would've bought one as my previous car but had to settle for a Celica because of insurance reasons.

Also wouldn't mind having an extra 2 seats, regardless of how useful the Supra's are.. :)

 

DSK:

I didn't expect the running costs to be worse actually! :(

I'm paying 1500 euro per year on road tax and a Supra would be 1200 euro.

I'm getting 21'ish mpg at the moment, is a Supra TT 6spd going to be worse in general?

General maintenance for my Z has been pretty much nothing in the last 18 months..

 

themodifiedkid:

I might just do that, thanks!

 

michael:

Yeah I took some pics of it a few weeks ago actually.

Haha, yea I can imagine. It'd just be nice in emergencies or short trips to be legally able to bring a 3rd/4th person in the car with you!

 

I've tried once, on a 2 min drive, to bring a third person in my Z and it was hilariously illegal and uncomfortable. :)

DATinter, the guy that used to own my car, sold his 350z for the supe.

 

Providing you get a good one, I don't think they're particularly costly to run.

 

In comparison to your 350z, the TT will be considerbly quicker. The only real sacrifice I'd say is the interior of the Supra is quite dated compared to your 350. Then there's the tuning potential. You have to pay BIG bucks to get the 350 to perform anywhere near a BPU supra.

How much you want for the 350z, my missis is looking for a black one with the GT options on

 

 

Unfortunately my Z is the Enthusiast spec and not the GT spec.

 

 

Thanks for the welcomes and advice guys!

 

Research time.. :D

you pay 1500 euro's per year for road tax!?

 

Sadly, yes.

 

So next time you guys complain (I'm assuming you complain as much as the UK Zed owners..) about road tax.. be thinking of me and the other Irish getting fked over. :D
