Got one last night

maxtodorov · 06-02-2010, 12:15 PM

Hi Everyone....

So I had a weird day yesterday. I owned a Honda Civic Hybrid. It had 106K miles, and I knew that the HYBRID battery ($3000) will need to be replaced soon. So i decided to go to a Toyota dealer and pick me up a new Prius. Went to Toyota, drove Prius and realized that I look like a total looser driving it.....

So to make a long story short..... drove to a Nissan Dealer, (without wife) and picked up a 2010 Black 370Z with Sports Package and MT. Wife was not happy, but in California there is no "cooling off" period, hence I am now "stuck" with a Z350 for next 5 years.

I think I am gonna enjoy this......

Nice... haha. Congrats on the new whip! I hope she'll come to love it and love you for getting it.

AK370Z · 06-02-2010, 01:28 PM

Good story. Prius Hybrid to 370Z - that's a leap I haven't seen before. You're going to love this car (since you came from Civic Hybrid) Congrats.

Blue Baby · 06-02-2010, 07:30 PM

Great decision. You won't regret it.

SophiaZ · 06-02-2010, 08:41 PM

NICE!!!!! Sounds somewhat like my situation..... back in feb 2009...drove to nissan dealership for oil change in the 350z( 09 Z first appeared there) and my husband drove me. While waiting..I noticed a black Z34 sitting there...all by his lonesome. Just for fun..I asked them to price me on monthly payment. The husband must've walked away from me like 3-5 times out of anger. When he came back..I showed him my new key fob. HAHAH.... I thought for sure the divorce papers were on its way..til he got to drive it home haha. He was very upset becuz I originally wanted white..but black being the first Z on their lot..I had to claim it! No complaints from him til I complain about the daymn scratched all over the paint
