Sorry, I just find this statement very humorous considering you are comparing it to a car that has both a back seat and a trunk. I've absolutely loved daily driving my Z for the past three years, but practical is definitely not a word that comes to mind

Welcome back!!

Tires go like butter! 10-15k. 15k is pushing it. Be ready to drop 2k on tires. If you have money to burn then go for it. The idea of it being a car you will keep forever is a nice thought but it won't happen. I had the same intention, trust me. I researched the car and would watch youtube vids dreaming about owning it. My dream came true last year. I paid 86k after taxes etc. It had 4k miles on it. I realized shortly thereafter that it wasn't a car I would keep forever. Insurance wasn't that bad but I have a sparkling driving record. I had 3 cars including the GTR and it was $220 a month for all 3. I'm also in my 30's so that helps I'm sure.
