How about a $300 plus nissan car cover....thats what i did.

Same here. Stopped smoking in my cars with the last new car I bought --07 Mazda 3 ... it did have an ashtray though. Now I am 10 minutes later to everywhere I go -- 5 minutes for a smoke before I leave -- 5 minutes for a smoke after I get there....

I put a foam can coozy(?) in my driver door cupholder. Holds plenty of change without scratching the panel.

Same here, except I just plan for that extra 10 minutes ahead of time. If that smoke is going to make me late, I drive the beater instead, because I still smoke in that.

Does anybody know why they didnt come equiped with one?......just curious

For my change, I use a small zippered coin purse a local merchant gave out to circulate his name and phone number that are printed on the side Helps that he's also a client of mine). In any event, I keep it in the empty Nav compartment of my Nav-less Z, along with my cell phone, tic-tacs, etc. It works fine and keeps the change from jangling and rattling around during driving. I'm sure you can buy one in whatever passes as today's 5 and 10 cent store!

That works too! I am hoping to at least get some illuminated kick plates... or at least some basic clear bra installed. It all depends on how badly this sales guy wants to sell two cars in the same deal. My folks and I are going in together, thanks to Mr. Nash and the VPP.

If he won't budge much on extras, there is always the door!

Smoking is disgusting and will kill you. What really amazes me in this day and age is not that vehicles no longer come with cancer pits but that people actually still smoke.

Really?

Haha i guess Nissan doesn't want people to smoke in the Z. I noticed that most if not all Honda's do not come with ashtrays either. I'm guessing its just a change of trend in automobiles considering my friends '72 Coupe de Ville came with a ashtray per person.

Vegitto-kun · 03-25-2010, 06:02 AM

I don't really mind. no ashtray = butt out of the window but most of the time I have a empty pack on me where I put my butts in

MightyBobo · 03-25-2010, 06:27 AM

Almost every new car has no built-in ashtray anymore - you pay (slightly) extra for it.

Which is awesome because:
1) Smoking is disgusting
2) Its a waste of space when you could have a cupholder or...something
3) Smoking is disgusting

I had to stop my guitarist twice in my Z, by hearing the lighter click...and he managed to start a cigarette in my Frontier and blow out one drag. I rolled down the windows and told him to toss the cigarette. I damn near told him to get out and walk.

*******.

He doesn't ride with me any more. Could not care less, and laughed about it.

If he, his wife and his daughter would quit for a week, they'd be amazed at how bad their house smells of wet dog (they have *5* large dogs), dog piss, and dog ****, mixed with about 20x the average bar level of cigarette smoke...
