When you buy a car like a Z you should not have to worry about those things. I wouldn't say the Z wasn't for him, but I would say the timing may not be right. If you have to "budget" for a car payment on a fun car, then the timing isn't right. One misfortune and boom you can't make payments you fall behind and ugghh you lose it all to a banker.
When you buy a car like this, you should just be able to wake up one day and say, "Oh hell yeah it is time to buy myself a FUN car."
I don't know your situation civicboy, but if you are on a limited budget then be careful. Is your civic paid off? If it is, then save some cash so you can throw more down later, be patient. Don't be the typical fast food American.

I didn't get the impression there was anything wrong with his finances from anything he's posted. He's trying to make the deal work. If the numbers don't work, it doesn't work. The Z isn't such a special car that good sense goes out the window and you disregard the numbers. Trying to get a good deal and taking note of increased running costs are part of being an informed buyer.
