My car got hit and its gonna be a writeoff...I am trying to decide the new colour, a dealer is willing to order in a white with blk/red interior from japan for an additional 1200-1500CAN, should I take the offer?? I am also interested in the 350Z, i have a hard choice to make now...any suggestions?

FSlocal only):
Muz's window mat (lexury version-black with nicely done yellow trim!)
Muz's window tube
Spoon radiactor cap (SOLD)
Spoon oil cap (SOLD)
Spoon x brace (SOLD)
Spoon STB (SOLD)
*BRAND NEW* Mugen CF hood (possible for sale)
*BRAND NEW* Mugen CAI (possible for sale)

the Mugen parts are brand new, thank god I didnt have the time to put them on yet...Offer me a reasonable price on them and i will get back to you asap.

best regards,

Rich

Wow, that really is a tough decision. I didn't like the 350Z at first, but the more I see them, the more I like them. On the other hand, a White S2K with Black Interior would be wild!

Tough choice...Good Luck!

I'd go for another s2000. Have you taken a real good look at the exterior, rear of the 350Z.. not for me sorry..

Canada will always be difficult to import as it normally brings out costs and taxes that you never knew existed, so that extra $2K could be more.. and get everything in writing first. I think it is worth it as I hear Canada will only get white with blue interior.. not my preference either..

The 350Z definately looks nice in person, s2000_rider. At this moment I am leaning towards the 350Z but gf seems to like the S2000 more. White with partial red interior is very tempting, but IMO yellow is just absolutely beautiful. (all the S2 colour is gorgeous just personally I like the yellow better)

to answer ppl's questions about Mugen hood and CAI, Yes they are brand new, BUT they are only for sale if I decide to go with the 350Z, otherwise they will be installed in my new S

sj2000, a friend of mine is ordering a yellow one from the states, he is only paying extra for the dash swapping...to convert the mile/h to km/h. The price is 62,000 with HT, which sounds alright to me.

if u paint it white, u r the only white one in Ontario, i think, then is more special. i like both yellow and white.
the 350Z looks good, but i think driving a S2000 with have more fun than a 350Z.

anyway, what happened??? somebody hit ur car??? hit and run or what??

Xplosiv, it's S2kRob, I had to sign up for a new account here at work.

Anyways, I'll take your Spoon oil cap and radiator cap, and possibly your Mugen CF hood, though I'd like to see all the stuff first if that is possible.

Sorry about the car. I wouldn't get a 350Z because they are becoming very common and you will soon see yourself coming and going.

If you can get a white on black interior S2000, you should go for it, but if he is special ordering it from Japan, you should go for Monte Carlo Blue.

BTW, I'd look at the new Z4 if I were you. They are hot.
