Age of 370Z owners?

zcar_dad

I will be 65 in two months. I don't think I am the oldest. This is my 4th Z: 87 300ZX; 05 350Z; and 07 350Z. Bought them all with money I could have left my kids when I die!

I'm 23, I JUST bought my 2012 370 two months ago.. this is my fifth Z car, I got the itch back in my junior year for a Z, I was fully consumed in my Sti addiction however I got sick of not being able to pull the same **** my friends were in their 240SX's and pulling the e-brake one click and reverting all the power to the back diff could only do so much for me. I traded a friend for a 2005 350Z 6SM and was hooked. I never cared for the massive power difference between the Z and STi. Then after a year and 13k later a drunk diver thought my car was an open gap for him to shoot. He was wrong. Then I stumbled onto a 92 TT swapped 300ZX 5SM. OMFG Dumped another 14k in her till so jolly green giant didn't know the rules to a four way stop. And again one of my beautiful Z's was totaled. Soon after a friend was selling his 2007 350Z 6SM w/ nismo exhaust, brembo's w/ rotors I still have yet to identify(they were very nice though). Economy got worse so I gave in and sold it after a year. barely spent a grand on it, had a very nice guy in AZ how traded and sold Z parts from his house so I traded and haggled a bunch of bolt ons from him.
Now i own a 1971 240Z 4SM and a 2012 370Z 6SM. Still can't believe the difference the 370Z presents to all it's predecessors. Nissan really stepped it up on the new VQ. I did buy the base model(not all of us guys in our early 20's had daddy buy our cars), however I found a 2011 used diff with about 3k on it for $200, installed for $350. Screw the dealer trying to make me spend over 3k for a new diff. All in all the poll shows most of us are early 20's, let's big it up for all us blue collar guys who bust their *** to keep up with this addiction and way of life!!

This car is more fun than by C6 vette.

All the 21-30 year olds (top poll results) must not have a mortgage payment, cause to own a 2012 Z is a mortgage payment in itself.......or their mommy and daddy bought it for them....jk....or they just graduated from medical school....lol

In Canada a 2012 370Z, Touring, Sport = $53,095.00 taxes incl., I paid $46,430.00 (VPP), after my down payment and paying it off in 18 months....so in my case its a hefty monthly payment v.s. over 60 months.

I'm 46 years old and own my house (mortgage / debt free), no woman or kids....so that's the only reason I can afford to own MY DREAM 2012 Z....

Theres quite a few people in that age range that saved a substantial down payment to purchase the vehicle. Also, not everyone that bought their Zs got them brand new. This is why I bought a certified pre-owned for 22K... instead of brand new for 33-43K... makes a huge difference in car payments. Plus my certified pre owned for 22K has all services complete with dealer, both keys, new tires/new pads etc and had 34K on the clock when I got it. Nice to have someone else take the huge hit up front value wise.

No, it's when you have more past then future. Way past the midway point in life.

That's making a lot of assumptions. Im in that age group and have the Z+ a dd (also in payment) and can still afford mortgage. I think it just depends what kind of job you get out of school.
