Perfectly good and awesome nismo Rays were littered with curb rash. The kid turned it into a piece of trash. It made me sad to hear and almost brought with to tears when I heard the kid traded it for a brand new nismo. Just thought I would share with anyone thinking of getting their kid a Z or any sports car for that matter. Please make sure they can drive it properly and won't trash it. Such a same to see these things just get wasted and trashed....to everyone else...treat your Z well!!!!

I gave each of my sons a Z when they were old enough to drive. Note: this was several years ago and the Zs were both 280ZX's from my stable (manual trans, of course). They took decent care of them, rebuilt engines, did suspension mods, etc. One of the Z's survives today and the other met an untimely end during a hydroplaning event.
