Anyone been thinking of what their next car will be?
A lot of cars are coming out in the next couple of years. Mostly starting with the 350z and then the Lancer EVO VII plus some others.
i think in a year or so, i maybe want another "weekend" car, not another daily driver.

It will be rear wheel drive. It will have at least 240 horsepower. I hope ;)

that sounds like the 350z, estimated 270hp RWD, im leaning towards the Z, but i need to see it first in person and test drive it
Used, Maybe a used 97 Corvette or 98 Supra turbo.
New, perhaps a 350Z.

Hmmm. My next car. Well, I'll probably keep the truck for another year or two. Hopefully by then a couple decent cars will be out, and will have gotten the "first year bugs" out of them. If there was a decent RWD car with some real HP available 6 months ago -- I'd probably be driving it now. :D

Yeah I wouldn't be against that Jake. I think my next car will be either a used luxury/sport car like a Q45, LS430, M3, 540. Or a "nice" SUV like an Escalade or Benz ML series. Something like that. Not sure which route to go.

350Z, EVO VIII, G35 (if it ever comes out), Corvette w/Lingenfelter S/C kit.
And yes, my next car may be a stick......

Or you could just buy a good ol' Grand National and woop all of our asses with your automatic turbo power. Just think, you could read the paper and talk on your cell phone while wooping Celica ass.. hey now that's something!
Jim could do the same thing.

I like the Evo VIIs. But I will still have the Celica probably by then since I just got it! Unless I win the lotto then that's a different story. Maybe get the new NSX too if I won the lotto. haha! :D

G35 (if it ever comes out) Oh it's out. I was behind one today. It was a coupe. A little strange looking at first but not too bad. It had some crazy taillights. 3 rows of 6 LEDs on each side at an angle. Hard to describe. It looked pretty nice I guess.

Next car will end up being more family oriented, but still an enthusiasts car. BMW 3 or 5 series, Nissan Maxima, IS300, G35, or A4. But then again I might buy some used POS and concentrate on a Viper GTS. That has been my latest kick. A family friend back in NY has a blue/white GTS and my neighbor here has a black RT/10.

Mmmm. Yeah, the SC430. I know her well. ;) Saw one yesterday on the road. I don't remember what I was saying at the time but I know I stopped mid-sentence when I saw it. How sad is that?
