How the heck do you afford a 370z/insurance/gas at 18?! I'm having a hell of a time working out a Z into my finances, and I make a hell of a lot more than I did when I was 18.

In my eyes, the only reason to get the 370z is for a subjectively better looking car. If the Z wasn't such a fantastic looking car, I wouldn't even consider it against the mustang. I'm not sure how...

And holy crap, I just looked it up and my stock tires are $906 on special. For a civic. $906. I'm that shocked that I had to repeat it.

^ Keep in mind my Civic is an SI, so it's a little more costly than a base (not much, probably). It's also turbo'd, so my gas mileage is a solid ~6 mpg less than it was stock, I change the oil every...
