Default *Sick* with jealousy

One of the devs here has been threatening to buy a 350Z for ages... and today he pulled up in it. Brand new, black, GT pack with orange leather... stunning. Just been round the bypass in it, I wasnt even driving it and I had a massive grin on my face.

Anyone spare 20k?

Like the TT, I found the 350Z better to look at than drive.

Sick with jealousy was pretty much how I felt when I met up my mate Nick a year or so ago and he'd taken delivery of his DB9.

I think I would actually be sick with jealousy if someone pulled in a new Aston.

The problem I have at the moment is I'm eyeing up an S2000, but I really shouldnt spend the money. Stuff like this doesnt help :/

I felt less sick when he gave me the keys

Good call on the S2000, I think they're a fantastic car.

I loooove the 350z - it's an awesome car. And it looks fantastic - I certainly loved the test drive I had of it. Of course I'd rather have an Aston, but I couldn't pull it off, the 350z I probably could.

I'm not that big a fan of the s2000 drive wise, looks wise it's awesome.

Another one of those cars I've been in but never driven myself. Think I'd have great fun in one, not least cus you can rev the **** out of it.

Yeah that can be fun, but I just didn't find it that fulfilling - though they do look and sound awesome - they need to be driven fairly hard to get the best out of them though.

So I'm told, but when you can rev to 9k, I guess that's the point.

High revving engines ftw, that's one of the things I adore about the bike.

True. Hardwork though and I'm lazy

Ah yes the bike's different I love high revs on that - still my car revs to 7250 which is still pretty high (though my bike nearly doubles that ). But the powerband on my bike is 4x that of the s2000 - 6000-9000 is VTEC which is far too much like hardwork - besides the bike revs quicker
