Why did you buy your 370?

I realize there have been threads like this one posted before, but I wanted to open a fresh one for all the new people to the site that didnt get a chance to read them.

I first seen the Z back in Feb in person, wow, love at first sight, at the time I was home on leave from that shytstorm called Iraq. At the time I didnt have the funds to buy the car outright, so I planned to get one immediately upon my return. Well, when I went back, some friends turned me onto the new Camaro SS, which BTW is a blast to drive. So I went from wanting the Z, to lusting after the Camaro.

So I get back in june, and get to the Chevy stealership expecting to pay MSRP at the most, which was 30k give or take. I had managed to accumulate about 35k in my savings for the 15 mos I was there. Well lo and behold, they decided to tack on a $12,000 "Rarity" fee, taking the car to 44k, f-ing insanity I know.

So I then directed my business elsewhere, only to find this problem city wide. As I was leaving the dealership, a SR 370 zipped by, and I swear i damn near got a fully. So on over to Casa Nissan I went, got the price I wanted and drove off with my new SR 370, paid in full, gotta love deployments!

I also think that this new minimum mpg government restriction they plan to impose will severely limit the number of high hp car production, better get your speedster while they last!
