police350z Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Hi, just picked up my silver 350z GT last month after desperately wanting one since they first came on the scene. I part chopped an RX8 and the difference in driving, power, looks and just about everything else is incredible. The torque I get from the roaring engine is superb. Pulling away uphill in 4th gear at 25mph is something Iv'e never experienced, especially in the crappy RX8. Insurance was only an extra 53 quid for the year (£325 in total ,although having full no calims helps) I have got to watch myself though, having 6 points on my licence, Anyone experienced anything I should be looking out for engine wise? Cheers and thanks for reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 if its well looked after and serviced on schedule then they tend to be fairly bullet proof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexx Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 from one of the many ex-RX8 owners on here. Try to refrain from calling them crappy, you'll hurt my feelings. I had 4 very enjoyable years with my Rex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronzee Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Welcome to the forum. Pop up some pics for us. Oh, and the RX8 lead you to a 350, so that's a good thing in our book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
