Why have a bad-arse car if you're not going to drive it? Then you're just hurting yourself seeing it sit. Drive it like you want to. It's just a car in the end, anyway.

i bought mine as a daily driver...

i bought it to drive it...:driving:

Thanks for all of the comments...

I guess I should have been more specific and not just mentioned the Kms. Basically I have a need for a larger car with storage sometimes and I was hoping to get a second car that would do that and also keep the Ks down as a bonus.

Don't get me wrong, I drive the Z everywhere and love it. I only want a second car for practicality reasons sometimes.

So I can't belive people don't have second/spouse cars? What about when you go to the hardware store to buy stuff that simple wont fit into the Z? I do a bit of that sort of work around the house so thats where my question came from.

Yeah, I know where u r coming from GTRFAN. Its a valid point - who wants to load up their Z with pavers, bark mulch, that extra long box with the new whipper snipper you have been dying/forced (sorry missus!) to get for the garden.

On the other hand thats one of the strengths of the hatch - it looks cool and can pop open to take that crap (within limits). I have to say that the space in the hatch of the Z is less than what I am used to.

It was amazing what you could stuff into the cargo bay of the Ford Shopping Trolley or even the old RX 7, given that they are both pretty small cars.

A lot of my friends who have an interest in sportscars have a differrent car for toting stuff and to enable the ferrying of the kids around and so forth.

Be realistic - a Z is not a family car unless you decide not to have kids, even then its a pain when u need to ferry friends around.

I hope to build a car port out the back to hold a big run-around car, look a cheap Magna or any number of drones is good for that...just for what you speak of, not as a general daily drive..

Otherwise tell them to deliver...
