You can't just buy a whole impractical 2nd sports car and then complain about gas prices, that's completely hypocritical. You would have been better off with one practical car for DD and one sports car for fun time on the nights/weekends. That would have been the way to not waste money

S2K mileage is pretty crappy compared to other 4 cylinders.
You knew what you were getting into when you got the Z... its not like they hid the EPA numbers from you...

My Altima gets 40mpg on an old fashioned 4 cylinder. Hybrids can go to hell.

Him complaining about gas prices. I have no problem with someone driving only fun sporty cars (I do the same), but makes no sense to complain about gas cost so much if you do.

Nothing at all is wrong with it at all but...

- You purposely chose to buy/drive a sports cars
- Start complaining about gas mileage and wasting money
- Yet keep on buying parts, not to mention another sports car

Contradicting yourself over and over gets old. This is why everyone trolls Damien. Not because of what he buys, or how/what he chooses do with what he buys.

Its like someone complaining about constant asthma attacks and difficulty breathing yet he smokes a pack of cigs a day.

Ok....so lets look at all the mods I've done. Hmm, Exhaust, MAF tubes, Filters, Springs, & Camber arms. Thats what? a little over $1000 in parts, last time I checked, I didnt do a bodykit, or coilovers, or forced induction systems.. so compared to a lot of other people, I really havent spent all that much on my car..
