Default new car.....

well, my tc is officially worthless.... custom ram air + Mexico border city roads + big rainstorm = water in cylinders... the rods bent and destroyed the engine. the car is still in my friends name and he was going to let the dealer repo it anyways before i took over payments so im going to let them repo it and spend the money towards a new car....... 350Z or Supra? i cant really decide. i kinda want the car under warranty but im really wanting a supra also.... whatever.... the only supra that i would be able to afford is a non turbo so i might go with a 350z turbo.....

Both cars mentioned are nice but I would roll the g35 instead of the 350z.

go g35 and turbo that. actually, twin turbo that. i heard of some G's getting up to the 500-600hp range. pretty fast for a luxury coupe.

wow, your car is in your friends name? he/she must be a good friend. well im sure if you let the car repo, your friends credit will be messed up. but anyway, if your can afford a supra or 350z then why did you get the tC?

i decided to fix the car... but i cant decide whether or not to get a new engine and sell it, or try to squeeze a bigger engine in there.... if i sell it, ill get an acura rxs type-s. What should i do?
