After a lot of time of being thinking of selling my car at last i made a real effort to sell it this last month and...This guy came and told me he wanted my car. He'll pay on saturday and will take it away. It gave me some headaches, anyway it was a nice car, I don't know but it was enough just to arrive at night and watch it parked there with that beautiful front. I'm gonna miss it. frown

How is the VW treating you alex?

Your GP was THE cursed red one, so i cant say i really blame you. I hope you still stop by now and again!

Well the VW is just fine is a nice car, simple,
but takes me from a to b.
My wife and I had a plan but it changed a little and we are seing to sell my bike and her beetle too, and we have some options to replace her car:

1. Solstice 06
2. Focus ST 07
3. Peugeot 307 CC 06
4. VW Bora GLI 06-07
5. Nissan 350Z 03-04


Opinions on those??

I would say Focus because of good mpg. I think your wife will like it. I have seen some women driving Focus. Her beetle is pretty good. How come she doesn't want it? Lot of problem?

Sorry about your gp. What wrong with it?

I'd get the 350z coupe, not the ugly roadsters.

It will hold it's value better than the rest I believe too.

The beetle is ok, nice and reliable car nice turbo engine, but is a 01, and in a few years it will have to stay at home once a week and one saturday every month.
This is the focus st. Is this car into USA?

I like that one.

Is the 350Z reliable?? are the parts too expensive?

I forgot that you are not living in USA. No, this Focus ST is not in USA. That's different look than what I seen in USA 2009 Ford Focus model. This one you are looking actually not bad looking car.

Thanks Richard, thanks to all of you guys.
You know Richard my car went away lookingo so much as yours, This guy who bought it didn't wanted to pay the 18" wheels and tires, so i sold them and trade the stock chrome torque stars for mine.
