Nissan 370Z Forum  

Any owners who will NEVER sell their Z??

Too many what ifs, after paying on it for so long the idea of no car payment is awesome. Plus, the z is a well rounded sports car. I see

Nothing wrong with that! When I was single and bought my house I thought my 2.5 car garage was great! Now that I'm married with three cars and in the middle of wintergeddon, I told my wife the next house can have no less than a 3.5 car garage.

If I could afford a new-ish GTR (I'd have to buy under warranty) I'd only sell the 370 if I got a good offer on it, I wouldn't sell it for 15k if it was the last 15k to get a GTR. Not much of a Corvette guy, and I have no idea why you'd BUY a German car


My next car will be a DeLorean, or a classic 65-70 fastback Mustang, in which I'll be keeping the 370
well that could be because you're not old enough to know wat adulthood is about to be a responsible father with kids. cant put 2 kids in a Z..while in motion at least.

Agree. I don't have any kids.....yet, but my Z is still a weekend car. I never understood people who buy sports cars as their DD. If I could only have one car, I'd get something sporty and practical.

well, nissan made the Z as a 'daily sports' car which means dd'able and fun on the weekends so nothing wrong with dd'ing the car.

i personally dont like to dirty my hobby cars so i dont drive them to work or anywhere. even at work in the summer we get the landscapers blowing rocks and shittt on our cars, all the chips and door dings going around. i really dont need that stress.

i just drive a super practical dd to work and in the winter.

I get attached to my cars. The Z I'd "love" to keep around as a car my son could drive one day (he's only 2 lol)

I loved my old Prelude so much, I parted it out down to the frame instead of seeing it driven by someone else lol.

If I couldn't drive my Z at least once a week (not counting winter storage) I'd sell it, I'm not one of those guys that can drive a car he loves only once or twice a month.

Mine is a keeper. Not a DD, but just a fun/weekend/show car. It took me almost a year to make the choice, and a long wait for the dealer to find what I wanted, but the day I brought her home, I got a pic of my grandson in the drivers seat (he was 4). I promised him that one day the car would be his, and I intend to keep that promise, no matter what it takes.
It is paid for, and when the right car comes along, I will put the z in long term storage, and get a new toy!
