Nissan 370Z Forum  

Do you have a 2nd car?

I have a 99 Crapalier Z24 that is dying. Probably going to buy a new VW Golf TDI.

Nice. i love the R's. i actually kinda lucked out and ran across this one with a 5 speed by accident. they are hard to come by these days. i plan on holding onto it, cuz i could see the value going way up on these things in the future

I have a 2000 Civic Coupe EX and a 20056 Ford Escape AWD V6 for my other cars.



As soon as Thanksgiving hits the car goes in the warehouse until April

So, how many of you have a cheaper 2nd car to use?

funny thing is, my 370 is my DD, and my ford focus is my track/time attack car

Lol. Is it a turbo?


Anyway, so what are the rules then if you do have a 2nd car, when and when do you not drive the Z??

If I am to keep my current car for my "DD", then I will have to re-appraise the financial situation

I have a 98 Frontier with over 200K miles. I've had it for four years. No issues with it. But I only live 3 miles from work/ That's a plus. My lifemate (lol) and I just picked up a Toyoto FL though.

My Z is for nice days in the summer, my DD is a overly bland 2005 Pontic G6 GT. My wife has a 2006 HHR with a 3" drop. Looks cool as hell but it's still a Chevy.
