What would you get?

So I sold my UCF11 this weekend and the guy is going to pick it up sometime this week. I have been looking around on what platform I am going to go next. 
 
Just wondering what you guys think. 
 
It is either going to be a 2003 M45 or the new Toyota Venza. I really love the M45 but I don't think anyone has started on a Venza.
 
I am leaning towards the Venza because it looks really dope plus it has tons of room. But the M45 looks pretty sick but the only kit I would get is the Mode Parfume one. Doesn't seem like there is any Venza support yet on kits, accessories, etc. Help me out guys

Venza is not a vip platfor and it is brand new so its. Gonna have very little aftermarket support in general, and no "vip" support( if thats what you are after) but. Lilkr the venza a lot

Drive them both then make the call. I've driven both and the venza is just not impressive on any level. Extremely overpriced for what you get. Venza is ~$30,000-40,000 where the M45 is around $13,000...

if you have to ask between these two then get the Venza....and leave the Y34's to us...

My bad playa. Act hard much?

Agreed. I want an M45(Y34) so if you buy one that's less for me to choose from. :pat:

I got a hookup on one for 10k. 1 owner and hella clean. Its tempting haha. Will see how this week goes if I can find a white one. The one for 10k is like a pewter green.

this one was easy...m45

Dealer just called and said he can get a white one from LA for 15k. Prolly take the cheaper one and save some money. 10k for a 2003 m45 ain't bad right? Haha

Although i would love tyo see the Venza done up my vote is for the M45. I love that car.

careful ive heard those m45s can have some electrical probs

been trying to search online about electrical problems on the m45... i couldnt find any. what type of issues?

If you're gonna go all out...go with a venza, just know that it'll be one-off...If you want it like this.

I say go with the Venza. I want of those.

the electrical issue m45's have is that the cluster goes bad and it's common.  also another common thing on the m45 is engine knocking.  i'd get the m45 if your gonna go all out cause they look like ass stock.

Venza!it aint "VIP" but it sure would look sick slammed on the floor!

true... no where near vip

Made a new poll option.

Why should we decide your next car??

word to that! if you got the venza you could start a new style, and if you're so inclined make a lot of custom parts (suspension..etc). find something that you will love every time you drive it, something that makes you stand back and be like damn...

(even though i clicked the y34 before really thinking about it...)

My bad for trying to get input from the community. And I am not asking you guys to decide what car I should buy, just wanted to see what you guys would rock. And as you can see, the the thread is going both ways. 
 
and I feel that you have no right on changing my poll. No matter if you are a MOD or not.

I gave you constructive criticism..I feel people these days try to hard to "fit in" rather than do what they really want.  Not saying that's you, but i felt it important to make that known...

As an admin, I have every right.  This is a private forum, not a public domain.  I do not go beyond my means as you'll see after you stay around for a while.  I am very fair and as unbiased as I can be (as are the rest of our staff).  So please, don't take things too personally.  We're here to help you...

hey dustin, I say you pick that m you found for 10k and just get a different color later on down the road at my shop! haha but the venza isn't a bad idea, I would love to own one of those too but it does seem kind of overpriced for a wagon.. or you can also pick up something out of the norm, like a big body S500 w140 :shrug:

I second the W140. Every time I see one, I think about what I would do to one. 
 
Widebody W140 . . . I would retire my "Big Bodi" licence plate if someone was to build that locally.

haha I picked up a m45 over the weekend. It had that damn problem everyone was talking about.. the gas gauge reading wrong. The car died on me on the road too. I was pissed =X. My mechanic got it fixed though... I wonder how long itll last lol.

that venza pic looks pretty crazy but i still have to say m45

Venza --> bang bu$

venza on air and 22's!
