FTO is gone.... Sniff but Good Luck to new owner

Postby RussMan » Thu Dec 06, 2007 4:03 pm

Sean just picked up the GPvR today.
I believe he should be registering on the site soon so wish him well.
Battery seemed to have died so we even had to jump start it, worst thing to have to do when your selling a car, a tad :oops:

Now to sell the 350z and get something for my comfy for my bad back !!!

jeez...the FTO and the 350z.... that makes me kind of sad. I hear sports cars are very good for bad backs so you'll need to investigate something like along those lines.

Do you not find the Zed comfortable? I think it actually rides really well on standard suspension - no crashiness or vibrations. What kind of car would you go for if you think the Zeds suspension is too hard? It would rule out practically all cars that have sporting intentions!

Have the thinking cap on.... at home for the day today so going to try and make a decision.

The Z is super comfy Myfto, heated seats rock. Main problem is getting in and out of it is killing be. Might look around for a back support of something that will help me keep it because i seriously love this car!

Massimo there is a nice 97 gpvr on carzone, black with red seats. I'd say you could get that for around 7500-7800 at a push as it looks quite clean.
