Sad but happy day

Traded in my nismo on a 08 jeep srt8 with 52k on it. They gave me 33500 for my Niz, a 2000 lincoln ls, and 2003 ford focus. OTD price on the jeep was 29500. Hated to see the Niz go but had to, got a baby on the way and due in november. Love the jeep tho, from a stand still its extremely fast. I loved my Z and this forum and will still pop in now and then Im sure. Heres some pics of my new whip!

Hey Johnny, congrats on having a baby this November ... very exciting. You traded a hot ride for another one just larger. It'll be good to see you pop on the forum. I bet your arguments to the lady were to the tune that the jeep has got a lot of room for the baby stuff, is practical in the snow. You forgot the 425HP part didn't you I hope to bump into you whenever I'm down in sweet ol' Bloomington or by the Oliver winery.

NICE ride BTW.

You would put a baby in a cheap beater without any of the modern safety features, with the additional risk of the car breaking down in the extreme heat or cold as well? Just so you get to drive a sports car?

Thank you. I traded in 2 beaters. I wanted something nice, safe, comfy for my new baby. But also something fun for myself. Trust me I didn't want to get rid of the nismo but if I had to trade it in on an suv this is the one I would want. Thanks for all the support guys
