2004 350Z Roadster Enthusiast 5A (bought used and still own 44K miles but selling her)
2014 370Z Coupe Black Cherry 6M (bought with 6 miles on it

and love it)

The Z's are weekend cars only as I have a personal company vehicle for every day use.

what's with the women in my life and pension for bashing trees?

Well judging by the age of your vehicles, I don't think you have a pension YET.

But you might have a penchant for picking women who can't drive :-p

This was my favourite car I drove before the 370.... 1979 Plymouth (Dodge in Canada) Fire Arrow
2.6 litre Hemi engine, 5 spd manual, 4 wheel disc brakes, overhead console....

Looking back I can see why I bought it! It sure looks like the old 280 sitting in my garage now!

To be fair, the engine crapped out around 240K miles. Spent $5K putting in a V8 with 40K miles in it, and it was running beautifully for another 40K miles before a Geo Metro managed to total it
