This is my take on this guys... Common sense first of all, is NOT that common. I bought my Z because since the age of ten, i have always wanted a "Datsun" Z-car and a Corvette "Stingray". I was born in 1963, and grew up in North Carolina. I have SEEN Muscle cars in thier "heyday" doing everything from running moonshine to Saturday Night Drag racing. I was in the Marine Corp at 18 years old and in Okinawa Japan in 1983, watching those guys racing and drifting RX-3's and 240Z's in the warehouse districts BEFORE it was even known as drifing, lol.
I do NOT have any kids (Biological, anyway) and at the age of 44-45 I decided that I was either going to get a NEW Z or a NEW Corvette, (which I have ALWAYS wanted) I had the money from being disciplined enough to SAVE my money, and being disciplined enough in life to have decent credit so buying a Sports Car for me was not an "Impulse" buy, or me out to buy it "Because I could"... I bought my car because I deserved it. It was not an "Ego" thing for me and was NOT an Impractical buy as I dont need a carseat (although I have had one in it for my Godson, and the Z IS equipped to accept the Infant carseat security cables and straps! It even knows NOT to deploy the passenger side airbag until a certain weight is loaded in that seat..... lol!)
My point is this, there are a few points that people have stated that i could debate, but something that I have learned in life is that when you find a group of people that you have come to surround yourself with because of a definite COMMON interest, it will pay off NOT to make waves, especially about trivial points.
