Can't understand why anyone on this thread got the 6 cylinder instead of the V8?


Spent very little money on my modds because I searched around before buying.

CamRen

dunno why i bought a v6 either...


had a plan ....

and the plan was V6 twin turbo... more efficient..

and plus i got the car for $27,000 with 27k miles
when i bought it v8's with those miles were going for any where between $33-$36grand...

After i do get that twinturbo....
im gonna be asking YOU...

Why a V8 when you can have a V6 twinturbo .... faster.. engine is stronger... and im sure v6 TT setup is cheaper then v8 TT

But yea stock v6 vs stock v8... you know how that goes..

v300

Speaking for all of my I-6 brothers and sisters. Wanna race?

Interesting question/comment. It comes down to the monthly payment factor. I could have purchased a new gs430, but wouldn't have any xtra play money at the end of the month. I could have easily bought a used gs400, but I wanted something new for that price. The extra money I save a month because I bought a GS300, allows me to have the expensive toys that I want. When I make more money in the future, all the expensive toys that I've bought will be slapped on a NEW SC430..
