I say 370z.

She doesnt need the hassles with a turbo (and we all have them)

Its sporty and they are quite nice inside (chicks love that)

There reliable and quickish cars (remember were talking sporty not time attack here)

TROLOLOLO ;P loving it Nee-san

oh and she is pretty much sold on a 370 we took for a drive tonight, wasnt much fun in the rain we had in Sydney tonight but she was blown away by the looks of the thing, crispness of the interior and deep bellow of the aftermarket exhaust. He is asking for 51K but im hoping we can get him down to 45 or so if we haggle a little, can only ask right?

That thing is seriously hot.

Write out a cheque for $45k and wave it under his nose. It's a buyers market so if he wants to sell it he'll have to bend.

Oh dear.....

Hey I was in a hurry, guess its a good thing I ain't no motoring journalist!

Will try the 45k bank cheque route and yeah sure they depreciate a lot but he worst of the damage has been inflicted by the time it's dropped to the mid forties

Just giving you a hard time :action-smiley-069: . Each to their own. Not up to us to tell you (or your friend) how to spend your (her) money.

I think the Zed will be a great choice - specially if you can get it for $45k.

All cars depreciate. Some more than others. If you want to get hammered on resale, pay full price for a taxi spec falcadore.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
