Nissan 370Z Forum  

why the 370z doesnt sell:::

Outside of gas and fees/taxes, not sure where the crazy inflation you are talking about. Please don't take economics lessons from some bias nut job, use some common sense.

i hope i dont sound like an a$$hole for saying this, but i have more to be concerned about than a 10 dollar increase in my food bill per week. house prices doubled since the 90s, oil going up 400% in 15 years, electric bill, heating bill, insurance,taxes, fees, tolls, basically everything but my paycheck. on the other hand, the price of goods and technology have fallen. i remember paying 20 a month for a pager in the mid to late 90s, netcom used to cost me money. regardless,people who arent rich or dirt poor will get forked no matter what. its just a matter of how much lube they give you.

i dont know or claim to know about everything in the economy, but i at least have some common sense and can tell some difference between whats real and whats not.

Wat do you mean 'sound like an arse'? You are an arse!
but if you got kids the inflation does pack a decent punch each month (food, clothing, presents for their buddy's bdays x20 + daycare + savings for their college.

Most normal families can't afford a 2 seater so they don't have much interest to begin with.

i am, i will be the first one to admit. its one thing to be an arse, i just didnt want to sound like i am some rich prick who doesnt care about an extra 10 bux in grocery, mainly because i am so in the middle that i get dried anal raping daily.

the 20 bux is minor compare to the 250% increase in tutition.

i understand, but a 5 bux increase is not hyper inflation, not anywhere close to what we have to pay extra in education, insurance, housing, gas, energy.

You acknowledge that you do not know or claim to know everything about the economy. If you lack the expertise, you are merely speculating. Speculating is different than being able to tell the difference between what is real and what isn't.

You simply believe you are right but cannot support the claim. Your attempt to back your position with facts actually supported the opposite opinion. Okay, I acknowledge that when I buy a new laptop (every 3 years) it is less expensive than in the 90s, but that is more than offset by the increase in my monthly smartphone and broadband plans from their 90s equivalents.

It is okay to disagree with the opinions of others. However, if you do so in a condescending, insulting way, you need to be able to demonstrate that you are right. Simply having an opinion does not make you right, and it doesn't make your opponent an idiot who lacks common sense and doesn't know **** from shinola.
