Age of 370Z owners?

Magic Bus · 05-23-2012, 08:35 PM

To all you young owners out there, working hard to pay for your Z.....Congrats! Bought my first Z, on my own at age 22 (in 1980, a used '76 280Z), think I paid about $5,000 for it.

Well the 280Z got me a cute girlfriend, who became my wife, who became the mother of my 2 children (O.o bye bye Z) and my partner in paying for the mortgage on a nice house. But alas, mortgage is almost done and one kid is done with college and the 2nd almost there. So that cute girlfriend said it's okay to buy another Z (2013 on order).

My advice to you young people out there, work hard, enjoy your Z and if you have to part with it for the greater good? Do it and keep working hard, for the Z will come back to you!

with all the above on a college graduation puts you in a good position to get a Z. Worked for me as well.

unless these kids are rich, im pretty sure their parents are paying for it. unless these kids are drug dealers or unless they have 0 bills and $0 expenses .. good for them tho..

How many years is many? LOL. Child labor much? or just straight up hustling

I bought this car as a 'gift' to myself because I had just finished paying off all my undergraduate student loans at the time. I just LOVE being in debt and paying bills

/sarcasm.

enkei2k, congrats on paying off your student loans! Enjoy your Z and hope your debts will be smaller in the future
