Cars I purchased myself:

1999 Saturn SC2 (2.5 door, ~100 whp, overall a very weird "coupe")
2004 Nissan 350z Enthusiast
2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe
2011 Nissan Altima Hybrid (still own)

Cars I never wanted:

2003 Dodge Grand Caravan "Sport" (friend bailed on an auto loan that I co-signed )
2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid (inherited, not impressed with Ford in the slightest)

The Grand Caravan Sport was an interesting thing... I guess if I had to own a mini-van at some point in my life, it'd be that.

I was hoping the Q50s Hybrid powertrain would make its way into some variant of the Q60. A hybrid coupe (with more than 1 cubic foot of storage) that delivers power the way the Q50 does would be a really nice replacement for my boring Altima Hybrid.

2005 Mazda 6s. Did a lot of custom modding. I decided to buy a car that was fun and also practical while living in Boston. Once I left the east coast I decide to get something that was more fun.



Also my other toys.

Bone Stock '04 gsxr 1000

In order from oldest to most current:

- 2001 Honda Prelude 5mt
- 2003 Nissan Maxima 6mt loaded with every package and heavily heavily modded - Car ran low 13s. Then I decided I wasted too much money on the wrong platform.
- 2002 Maxima automatic - Needed something simple to get me through my Masters program
- 2007 350z 6mt - lightly modded but still very fun

Current rides:

- 2014 370z Nismo
- 2000 Altima SE automatic - my current ride for commuting. I picked this up last month. 109k miles, 2nd owner, black leather interior. Clean, simple and practical - just the kind of DD I wanted.
- 2013 Honda CBR 1000rr - I've been looking forward to this time of the year when I can start riding it again. Between April and October I really have no desire to be on 4 wheels

The bike
