Just managed to get around the 1 million mark after a bit of grinding ;)

So, I am going to spend some of the money getting some new tyres, buying some cars for my trade shop (check link below if that interests you, no new cars added just yet) and I also want to treat myself to a new, premium vehicle ;)

But which should I get?

The two I am interested in are:
Mazda RX-8 Type S 07
Nissan Fairlady Z (Z34) 08 A.K.A The 370Z

At the moment I am swayed towards the Mazda, i am a big fan of the car plus my Dad has one, but which do you think?
 
As in real life, the RX-8 (I own one myself) has superb handling and, on a very tight track, would challenge the Z. However, the 13B rotary engine is lacking in torque (a trait of rotaries) and somewhat underpowered against the Z's 3.7L V6.

So, if you want something that's decent in the twisties and powerful down the straights, get the Z. If you want a unique engine in a very nimble chassis that's quick, but not particularly fast, go for the RX-8.
 
Can I offer a third option?

The 458 Italia is incredible fun. I bought one, didn't upgrade. Just bought super slicks (Racing Soft) and it handles beautifully. You can mash your foot down and slide the back out but it's so easy to control that it can be corrected without much effort. Highly highly recommended!
 
Yeah the third option is your best one there. The 458 Italia handles amazingly and is surprisingly quick in a straight line. I've fully upgraded mine and it's my favourite car to drive.
 
Thanks for the recommendation but I do already have an Italia ;) Great car indeed. I am a fan of the Nissans just a little undecided at the moment. I will see what others think before I make my desicion :P

Jordan my friend. hell yeah the 370Z sounds like a good option... :) but question: did you ever tried the '69 Camaro? I wasn't expecting much but I tuned mine with around 450hp and it is EPIC fun to drive... Beating the supercar nostalgia racing series with it agains european old super sports was joy of joys. And it looks completelly badass... Consider one of those for your toy list.

But before, pick the 370Z and tell me about it. Thinking about getting one too.
 
If you're going for a Mazda get an Rx-7! Sexier and faster. Nissan GT-R is absolutely amazing, it is like motoring perfection, it just does exactly what you want. Though if i had a 1 million i would buy a 1 million credit car, the Mclaren F1.
 
Hey Diego, not tried the Camaro no :P Not to big on Muscle Cars. I think I will settle for the 370Z. I am going to update my Trading thread, but a 370Z, have some fun, then feedback ;)

Just for the record I also bought myself a Lancer Evo X. Great car, if anyone is considering a purchase of one of those, go for it ;)

Really? Maybe I'm the only one that found the Evo X a little bit too grippy?

Excessivelly on rails? I like to fight a bit with the car :) The Evo X its almost like cheating when cornering. What you did to yours?
 
If you have been grinding a while to get $1mil, I would suggest buying a car worth close to that.
