So true!! Lets see in the last two weeks: Post MAF tubes, K&N drop-ins, AAM short tails, Stillen front lip, 3/4 tank of gas each week... I get a reprieve this week while it is getting painted.

The work put into the Z just reflects me, the personality and style. [shrugs]

I seriously don't want to spend anymore money on this car. Doubt I'll be able to sell it either if need be unless someone would trade for a good condition '07+ TSX and pay off the loan.

Ditto.

The car that came in second for me, a Challenger is even starting to get more mainstream now.

I love driving down the road and never seeing another 370. I also like how nobody knows what it is.

I see at least 40 Toyota Camry and 200 pedestrians everytime I decide to go to work. I can't say the same for the Zs.

I hope someone sees this and comes up with his/her own version of doink statement haha

My Z means just about everything to me. Im absolutly in love with this car. I love its sleek, sexy lines. I love that I dont see one EVERYWHERE I go. I love its performance. I love the attention it generates. Most of all I love the smile it puts on my face day after day. Its almost impossible for me to put into words how I feel about this car.

Snazzy cheap commuter ....that I can drive on the track.

I'm not overly in love with styling of this Z but its a solid value and a car I'm not afraid to park in a big lot and get occasional door ding. It's a nice throw away sports GT car that i can rack miles up on beat on the track and not feel bad like i did driving more expensive sports cars. I feel much more comfortable using this car as a daily driver than my past Porsches. When I drove Porsches I was always paranoid about door dings, etc. the Nismo is just good cheap fun!

Why not keep the more expensive "Porsche's" and just buy a used Z as a DD? Your comment sounds pretentious IMO. Especially that once you owned any car more than 3 years you stop givin a hay about dings n such. Especially since a porsche depreciates faster than I can take a Sh1t compared to other high priced sports cars.
