I was out car shopping with the good lady yesterday - she is still on the lookout for something for herself although I think she's made 'another final' decision... The discussions - as usual - turned to my 'old piece of ****' (for her anything over 3 years old should be reprocessed into tin cans)... We both agree that the S15 is completely hopeless in the winter but the real thing the wife believes is that I'm too old for an S15 and don't have time for all the 'maintenance' I have planned.
So she gave me 2 (well 3) options:
1. keep the Silvia but spend no more money on mods (except that already spent which includes the 2.4L engine) and then have something newer and practical for every day (such as a new honda хуй-онда civic).
2. her favourite option - sell the Silvia and the new engine and all the parts sitting on the balcony and then she will buy me a new Infinity G35 coupe - but only if it is black.
3. another less practical option - sell the Silvia and she will buy me a 350Z and use the money I get from selling the new engine for tuning parts for the 350 (maybe enough for a turbo kit). With new kid on board this is probably the least useful option given that the 350 doesn't have a 2+2 option (unlike all the other Z's in the past - so much for Z-DNA)
The 'unspoken' 4th option is to continue with my Silvia as planned
I think if my S15 was mine from new and had a 100% clean record and was a spec-R from scratch then there would be no need for this discussion. But it is clear that the car has some accident damage - I knew that when I bought it of course, and it will always have been a spec-S regardless of the 'short list' of mods that I have done and in the pipeline...
what do you guys think.... perhaps a vote
