at the end....a sad day.

today i went home from my camera shop and my mother was in a bad day.....she doesn't want to drive the 323 gt-r anymore, she was tired because it's old and need some money to return in good health and also because my father has some problem with one leg.

my GT-R has 184.000 kms and it still run perfectly, but i need to change rear suspensions, the sunroof has some problems, all the light has fog/water inside, some oil leak from the motor.....BTW it's 12 years old...

why i post here in general? because i'm so down.....i don't want to put my GT-R to trash but i can't do nothing else, so i'm thinking to buy its daughter... Mazda 3 2.0L Sport.

i know....i can't compare it...it isn't 4wd (i hate Haldex system so also the upcoming MPS 3 can't help me) it isn't TURBO (

) it isn't a car made to won rallies.....it's a simple good car.

so i ask to Mazda 3 2.0L owners to tell me Pros & Cons about this car. I like the design and interior.

thank you guys.

... no no nooo stay tuned on the GT-R or you will regret !!

rear suspension, maximum 300€...

I understand your problem. maybe try to buy another car (economic with a confortable ride) in order to do the job journeys, and keep your GTR for w.ends...

this is THE solution, less expensive than a GTR for everydays !

Yes i know Eikichi but here in Italy to own a car you need to pay a tax every year and it's based on CV.
having a GT-R will cost an extra of over 350.00 € each year plus insurance.

this morning my mech call me to tell that the front left abs sensor was changed but also the rear left was gone.....this kind of sensors are very expensive.

i'm speechless.....my beauty, i own since my 20 years, now i'm 30....10 years of amusement, it was my dream at 17-18.....

thank you

reason or pleasure

very difficult choice. one solution as says eikichi it's to have an other car little but another car = more taxes and more expenses

I'll be so sorry if you left your GTR

Have you already take the decision to sell it or not ?

Listen to the good voice.... keep your gtr.... keep your gtr

here in Italy is very hard to sell GT-R, too old car and not famous as Lancia Delta or Escorts, the value is also very low then in France.
i really don't know what to do, no car seller will give me money for the GT-R.
