Kids and the 370z

Doug&Michelle · 05-18-2011, 11:03 PM

We have two girls....eight and eleven. We have a crew cab Frontier and recently ordered a Juke for hauling the kiddos around. The Z is our date night car plus my fun toy. I drive it almost every day unless I think the weather will be bad. Love me some Z.

And to tell you the truth the 8 yr old girl like the Z the best of the kids.

same here my daughter of 8 years and loves the Z

, thinks its her car but do let me drive it on and off

Well I have a Ridgeline and a Rx 330 so I have that covered.

TheGreatOne · 05-19-2011, 12:09 AM

The wife is 3 months pregnant....luckily she agreed with me getting it now before kids came into the picture. She said 2 yrs from now it would have been a "hell no"

I should be keeping the Z, wife has a 328Xdrive, perfect for Baby seat lol

A wife should never say "hell no". That's sad.

Well... I guess my wife said that about me getting a bike but that's a little different..

I hope you mean snipped, 90 ST! Getting shot by a sniper sound MUCH more painful!

(although, depending on the injury could have the same effect on your fertility)

Have a 2 year old daughter and thinking of having another little one. My wife is a stay at home Mom...she has a 2011 Maxima. So any trips involving all 3 of us...we go in the Max.

I do miss not being able to enjoy the 370Z with the entire family...but if you have little ones...look at the mess they leave in the back seat/car seat and you will be happy you don't have to deal with that in the 370!

0 kids

If I had kids at home, there's no way I'd be able to afford a 2-seater, much less be able to justify one.

kenchan · 05-19-2011, 08:35 AM

2 little ones for me. I only drive the Z on the weekends when I get a chance.

chuckd05 · 05-19-2011, 04:46 PM

When I finally have kids I'll be driving an M3. Until
Than I'll be rocking my Z.

My buddy has a e92 And his son knows our two cars as the "race cars". He will always say "daddy are we taking the race car ? Or mommys boring car? (qx56).". He's 5 ... Teaching them young is gtg

BuckeyeZ · 05-19-2011, 04:50 PM

This is exactly why I got a Z.......so I had a good excuse to leave the kids at home!

Hambone1 · 05-19-2011, 04:56 PM

I got a Z to outrun any children I may have...
