00LexusGS3

hey guys,

im car seaching and I am a really big fan of the 2IS, but another car came into mind. A 2007+ Nissan 350Z

Im really having a hard time debating either for a 2007+ IS350 or a 2007+ 350Z...

I really want a 6 speed therefore the Z came into play...But i dont wanna end up selling the Z in the long run because of space...

I just wanna know how u fellow members overall like ur IS350....Maintenance? Modding? Speed?

Thanks

since you already have a gs300 and a 03 tundra for winter id say go for the 350z for when you feel like going fast :P, no need for 2 luxury cars, but this is really hard to decide between the two, you should buy the car depending on the practicality of the car when you use it

hmm... both are v6, both are sporty japanese imports BUT~ apples vs oranges, ones a coupe and ones a sedan~ sporty orientated vs luxury orientated~

If you keep the GS...then go for the coupe vehicle.

thing is, im prolly gunna end up getting rid of my GS and keepin the tundra for winter...i absolutley love the IS350...but no manual....
if they came in manual then i would have made up my mind all ready...no question

im totally stumped over these two cars

if I had a GS, I would def go for the Z. The GS is more luxury than the IS, and the Z is faster than the IS. You can drive the GS when you want luxury, drive the Z when you want speed!

very true...thats y i cant make up my mind...i dont need much room now but i dont wanna get the Z and end up selling it in a couple years as to getting the IS and always wonderin about the how the 350Z was..

2IS350DT

In that case, it all depends on whether you want performance or a combination of luxury and performance. The 350Z is faster, but not by a lot. If you do not plan on doing a lot of performance mods, then get the IS!

im gunna be gettin rid of the GS lol....cant make up my mind...GEESH i hate when i come into situations like these

00LexusGS3

i do plan on doin performance mods and all that..but i just love how the IS looks...and I like how the Z is a real coupe sports car with a six speed manual....i love both cars....but i need to make up my mind. lol

as for the moddin tho, im gunna be driving to school and all that, so cant modd to much yet, but in my point of view, im still single with no family and the Z would be perfect for finding chicks..

the IS is luxury and would make me look classy as ill be a college student steppin out of a lightly modded IS350....just imagine that

I've noticed an IS turns a lot of heads. Luv it! A 350z is very nice too. I like the 4drs though. That's just me. I'd go out And test drive both. See what u like. Maybe hit up the z forum for some more thoughts. Whatever u choose you'll luv it. Both cars are awesome and unique in their own way.

yea ive noticed that the IS does turn heads..my cousin had a 250 AWD and would always get comments when it was completely stock...just talked to my dad and hes like id take Lexus over any other car any day in my life...lol Lexus Loyal

depends on what you want out of the car..... nice ride, sporty, high quality fit/finish, but a good amount of power when needed then go with the lex350. If you want a "sports car" then go with the 350Z.

If you're relatively young and don't anticipate the whole "married life with kids" deal in the near future, I would highly consider the 350z. As you grow older, your opportunity to own such an impractical vehicle like the Z will inevitably shorten.
