Lol, I wish a 458 was in the picture now, maybe in a couple years, but not yet. Been talking this over more with my dad and I think I'm not going to go through with getting a Z right now. I just feel like I will get it and I will regret it. Nothing against the car at all, it is a fantastic car, but I just don't think I will enjoy it like I should. I'll just keep seeing the money I spent on it and how I could have invested it elsewhere and made a GTR or something better possible even quicker. Also I am probably getting a 4Runner next month, and I'm still in my schools apartments for the next 4 months, so one of them would have to stay at my parents. Just may make more sense to have one car for the next few months.
In addition the 370z I ordered ended up coming in a few weeks early, which actually makes things much worse for me. For one I can't just pull out the money for it just like that, and it will take me a few weeks to wrangle it all into one account and wait for the cashout checks and payout dates to arrive (Normally Jan. 31 for the companies I work with.) Basically, if I have to make the deal tomorrow, I will have to finance some of it which I hadn't planned to do.
I am still going in to talk to them tomorrow and I may bite at a long-term, low monthly payment loan. My only problem is that I don't know if they will have any penalties for paying it off early. It would probably be a 6 or 7 year loan that I take to have some low payments in the first few months then I'll just pay off the car in June or something. This all happened so quickly and unexpectedly that I'm not really sure what I'm going to do even now. More than likely it will turn out to be an impulse decision when I see the car tomorrow.
In the event I do not get it (I'm still flip-flopping every minute, probably a sign I shouldn't) can any of you guys think of a fun car that I could turn into a track car in a few months in case the truck just doesn't cut it for me? I'm considering maybe an E36 M3 or an older STI. I've been looking forward to having a fun car for the last 6 months, so I may find a cheap, but fun option that I can just keep at home and take out on the weekends.
Also I plan on sticking around here. I want to build a dedicated track car out of a 370Z in the future, so hopefully I will have that worked out by next summer and I can join the Dallas guys at meets.
