I agree. I am a car whore. I'm superficial and get excited by looks and promises of what's under the skirt...I mean hood!

wouldnt say im a nissan guy, wouldnt say im a any particular type of car guy, BUT i would say (like a few have stated before me) im officially a Z guy

First car was a 2008 hyundai Accent, traded it on my 2011 Matallic gun Silver Base 370z, gave me 6,500 for it, ontop of putting 12,000 down

couldnt be happier with her.... im a Z guy now for life....funny how 3 months ago i didnt know a thing about the Z, didnt know what it was, nothing. All it took was that first glimpse and a want.... and BAM! Shes in my garage 4 months later.... =)

Grew up with Toyota Corollas and later RX-7s. However one of my first cars was a Datsun B210, but always like the Zs and its heritage.

Had a 300ZX, 350Z and now the 370Z.

I think the guys do some meets at other times every once in a while so I would keep check back just tofind out when they do. We are having a meet to watch the movie Fast Five together two weeks from today, you might be able to make that one depending on how far you are from Fairfax. Check this thread out for more info:

Mid-A Movie Night - Fast Five - Weekend of April 29th

I tend to lean twords GM (coming from a mostly GM family) - Camaro's, specifically. Right now though, all they have that perks my interest is the Corvette. In the end, I'll buy just about anything except for a Ford. Doesnt mean I don't respect them, but I would never own one I don't think.

Not really brand loyal either. The "Z" really caught my wife's eye when we were in Florida. I'd promised her for our 35th anniversary, I'd buy her a sports car and we'd run Route "66". The "Z" fit the bill. We would have bought a Nismo, except no black cherry.(wife's car and she was adament about color.) I've been running Subaru's for the last 9 years, as I need something for the Michigan winters. (She has a Grand Cherokee she drives in the winter!) RP

I am definitely a Japanese car kinda guy.

Went from:

- Honda
- Mitsubishi

to

- Nissan

Mother in-law has a Rogue, sis has a Versa dad has an Altima so just need my mom to get on board...her Camry is on its last legs lol. Wife loves BMW, nothing in the line up of Nissan for her

Some Domestic/North American cars have been looking better to me, but I think If I didn't go Japanese, I'd be all over German (BMW or Audi)

I'm totally brand bias...

45% Honda/Acura
35% Nissan
15% Subaru
5% Everything else except Mazda or a DSM.

I will always own a Honda or Acura... reliable, cheap to fix and they have great engines. Nissans are nice as well, their reliability is coming up and the quality is greatly improved from the early 2000s. Subarus are quality like Honda and they hold resale value.

Mitsubishi and Mazda is garbage IMO. :-/

On a side note, I looked through this months issue of Motor Trend Magazine and there is NOT ONE picture or mention of a Mitsubishi... not even in an add. I think that says a lot.
