I just want some opinions.

"370Z" and "practicality" in the same sentence makes me LOL!
My opinion? If you can have only one vehicle, and practicality is a primary concern for you, then the Z is a poor choice.
I had a Mazdaspeed3 for a couple of years. Now that was a practical and fun car!

I agree....For a Z you need a second car for areas that have poor weather or if you need "practicality" .....

thanks. it's a 2001 C320. it's my dad's car but he doesn't drive anymore so he gave it to me to drive. it has pretty low mileage for how old it is. it only has 27k miles. although, i am the only one who would drive it, i don't want to rack up the mileage, that's why i got the vw for daily commuting.

vw = daily commuting
mb = weekend
z = garage queen

I daily drive my Z. I'm an attorney and really only need room for a briefcase and the occasional purchase of a case or two of beer

I have my Z and a motorcycle, and I don't need any more room than the Z offers.

I have friends with trucks if I need to borrow something with room.

I may need to re-think my approach here.
Now that I have a truck, people may ask me to borrow it or worse yet... help them move sh*t.

I tested it already and my Z was able to handle FOUR postures!! But make sure you should be strong enough to hold her tight during the work out cuz you dont want her to lean on some weak plastic spot so it will might end up breaking something

I lost my "innocence" in my 1967 Datsun 1600 Fairlady. The room in the 370 is palatial by comparison.

I could use the sprinter van as an RV, and I might do just that from time to time.
