lets see how liberal and open she is once she is your wife. ALOT of things change between the gf and wifey transition, and ALOT more AFTER the wifey transition.

garage for safe-keeping and knowing your car will be safe.
tools for not having to take it to the dealership (DIY)
wife - my wife complains all the time about my car
DD - i need to get a DD and not put those miles on my Z

I don't think the last one is quite as required. I use the Z/Vette as my DD and enjoy it thoroughly.

not a matter of enjoying it, but rather being conscious of putting those miles as a DD and/or driving it to work and parking it in the sun, etc.

ahhhh i love the Z man...came back full circle to it Only other car id rather be driving is a GTR...ive been looking for a good deal now and still searching

Usually the people that talk negatively about the 370Z are people that have never had anything more powerful and/or upgrading to something more powerful. They act as if they are "growing" away or better now. Im a Z Guy, a Z enthusiast, Ive had way more powerful cars before but i Love Z's and Nissans. The Nissan Z culture and people.

Last I heard. GM is still trying to shave weight. They said they'll keep trying till a few days before production. They are DETERMINED!!!

KUDOS to the Camaro team!

thats gonna be a monster, it will take over the 5.0's reign for the segment. The new mustang doesnt even come into play since its common knowledge they are a bit slower than the 11-14's

plus the camaro looks good!

So ... I admit, I did not do any detailed research. First article that came up gave a weight range of 3600-3700 lbs. Naturally I took the high number cuz I own a Z and I want to make it appear the new Camaro is 300+ more pounds than my Z. May not be fair ...

I don't care

Ima stikin' wit da Z!
