How are you liking the G35? I am in love with it. It's truly my realistic dream car. However, my celica is my true love. Wish I still had the celica but all good things must come to an end. It seems pretty common that after having a celica people move on to a 350z or g35. -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

I love my Z. Unfortunately I'm selling it and moving on. Lucky enough to keep the Celica. The Z's/G's are some great cars, definitely the most fun I've had behind the wheel.

I've thought about the 350/370Z or G35/37, but I can't be a trend follower so I'll have to choose something else now.

This site needs excitement. And lately there is none.... That was Natalie's forte if I remember correctly? ![]() Wow...it just took Nat to get Dustin to post. Welcome back, both of you. hahah just coincidental timing. Haven't touched the Celica since I moved to Australia and I sold the Z, so not a whole lot of "car enthusiast" in me right now! -------------------- ![]() |

It's not only here that seems to be dead. THe whole scene has died down a lot since the early 2000's. No one even gives my car a second glance now and im sure if I had my celica it would be called rice now days even though it was pretty clean.
I now find myself saying "when i was your age...." to kids when they talk to me about the car scene. lol. i feel old! -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

Infiniti are plenty though...you may say their number is almost...infinite? At least where I live. The industry isn't as focused on visuals anymore, it's all "hoon factor."

Hello, its very quiet around here now. I pop in once and while to see whats going on, lots of people have moved on. I see coomers old car running around every so often (no idea who owns it but someone near me does) needs some work, Mine is long gone. I also have a G35 now, can't blame celica people going that route there great cars. I still have the scoobs too.

Its the nature. Its everywhere. Forums are dying on favor of social media. I gave up on several forums. I dont post anymore. Forums are just basically archives now

I hate social media. Though I can somewhat understand it over forums as it's convenient if you're into social media already anyway, and it's probably easier to get local groups together as well. I don't think forums will die out completely as there're a lot of things it'd be difficult or inconvenient trying to use some form of social media layout. I think the biggest issue, and with car forums dedicated to older models specifically, is that everything has already been done a million times. Then when someone new posts asking about whatever the few still around are like "USE SEARCH BAR" or "GOOGLE IT".
