the way I look at it is that my G is paid for. which means every morning when i fire her up... Free driving! So even with gass at 6 bux a gallon,

$6 X 18 gallons = $108 X 4 weeks = $432 per month!

I can't buy a car that is as fast or as nice that will keep me at under $500 a month with insurance!

I guess that the 6 MT really makes the difference in MPG. I got 28.3 on my last fill up and 27.54 on the one before that! The 6mt lets you coast so much and it will coast for a long distance. When i see a light turn red i put it in Nutral and let it cost to the light or until it turns green and then I WOT it lol.

I have the shift light set for 2700 rpms and that is where i normally try to shift. Plus that keeps me under 70mph lol I do a lot of driving in a 55 and 60mph zones. The coasting makes up for my WOT driving

I would buy the 350Z in a heartbeat! I still covet one, much like if you decided on Betty and longed for Veronica. It's a win-win, but you're always peeking over the fence...

Other than that, I'd buy this monster!! An electric Shelby Cobra!:http://www.autobloggreen.com/2...-vide/

As for me...i'd go back with my first love. I'd get another Eagle Talon TSi AWD and redo her completely. Honestly most fun to drive car i've ever owned and the fastest
HAHA...I just sold my 90 TSI AWD w/ 425 awhp to get my G.

I think I'd have to go w/ a Z06.

If you want an air-cooled 911, the next generation, model 993, made from 1995 to 1998, is the best.

Looks like my G's value is increasing dramatically.

After my other thread where I described getting spanked by a G8 GT, I think I will have to change my answer to a G8 GT as well.

I think the butt is nice, just don't like the tail lights. Some aftermarket tail lights tho and she'd be a beauty. IMO

You are correct sir, but I really like the 2002 and up body. The 911 RS-3 is my dream car.
