Should I buy Z4 or 350Z?

[ess530i]

took this at SIC yesterday (30/08/08)...petronas team's z4 M...one of the best sounding car on the track...there was another 350z but damn slow i didn't bother taking the video

helllo.... i have been thinking about getting a z4 since last year.. but until now i still cannot make a decision.. hehe... but i started to look around again and i found 1 in AMO the one near SME Bank Jalan sultan ismail...

black color, new front and back light... not sure about the bumper..as i don know how to differentiate it... milleage done is 35k kms, sport rims, but ther rim is not really nice for me.. and they have a spare M5 rim now, you may get them to change it for you.. maybe topup a little ...

they are selling for 213k.. i thought it is cheap... until i search the motortrader and i realised that the price now had gone down.

cud be a newer model since u mentioned new lights....hence the price.

I wonder if the thread starter has actually bought the car??

i'm quite sure you can get yr 2004 z4 for below RM200k. Try to nego using RM190k - RM200k, depending on specs and condition.

1.Any difference between the ABM n grey imports?

2.With a budget of 250k what year's model could I get?

3.Does the z4 still come in the 2.5 version?

dude, if you love speed, go for 350z, if you want rarity and style more than speed, go for Z4..
i will go for a Z4 if i am looking for a two seater..
because,
there's too many 350Z on Malaysia road today.
Z4 is 2.5 compared to failady's 3.5..smaller engine means better fuel consumption and cheaper road tax
i will opt for skyline gtr if i want to drive above 250km/h..
skyline is cheaper, with smaller, powerful engine.
Z4 is a bmw, and continental cars are always more comfortable than japanese.
350Z use big muffler, with blowoff valve..u know, those things spoil the comfort inside the car..its just too loud.
it's kind of handsome actually, because everytime you shift up there'll be a 'pshh' sound came from your blowoff valve, but you will wish theres no such sound later on.
this is just my humble opinion..hehe! =)
you can also opt for ferrari 355 spyder..i think the price is around 400k now..
well, that car is really awesome.

350z got blow off?

 

[Drivenz@330]

I will go for Z4

 

[turbology]

If you buying an automatic : Z4
If you are getting a manual : Fairlady

factory tuned 350z doesnt come with blowoff, but for turbocharged engine, it is advisable to bolt in your own blowoff valve, and wastegate, more horsepower, and faster waste release..

"Factory 350Z" does not come in Turbo. 350Z has VQ35DE , a non-turbo engine.
Blowoff valve has nothing to do with "more horsepower"
All factory turbo will built-in a wastegate, or come equipped with one.

 

[ess530i]

go buy a 350z (M) and supercharge it...wont cost u more than 200k and its damn powerful!

 

[ronaldinho]

hi there thru my oppinion both have individual beauty for the 350z exterior is nice and powerful but the interior is very plastic unlike the z4 2.5 exterior is elegant interior is classy but not as powerful as 350z so in the end is up to your liking and which suits your taste more
its true 350z a lot of younger age people driving and the way they modified it is totally speechless lol. but z4 u dont need to modify just change the sports rim and it will be stunning and of course maintainance is higher than 350z but the road tax for the z will eat a big chunk out of your pocket and i heard its very thirsty car .so good luck !!!

a z4 is a bmw, a 350z is a nissan, a brand associated to the latio, sylphy and livina
