Sad story, different car and moving on...

Am I the only one confused by "A night of gambling where I lost a couple of thousand dollars" and 3K was the deal breaker for getting the wife a civic she didn't really want and then 3K again for not getting his Z back. I might quit the gambling and see how life starts going. Might be in for a pleasant surprise.

Well, I traded a base black 2010 370z for the 2013 sports package, paid a $6k difference with money won gambling. I am a part time pro gambler.

Is that really a thing? I thought that's what people tell themselves after they lose more than they were comfortable losing.

Before my Z, I was debating between the Z, Frs (asian parents didn't know what Subaru is but when told toyota, they are ok with it. Corolla generation I tell you), and Genesis. I tested all 3 and loved all 3. Problem is frs is too low for a 6'1 guy and I don't drive like a Mustang owner with 1 hand on wheel and leaning back.

Genesis felt good but ultimatel, like the frs, the two seats in back are practically a small place to store groceries and backpack. I'd rather walk then for a friend to drive me while I sit in back of one of those cars.

Last reason for not getting neither of those car is that in San Jose, almost all who drive brz, frs, genesis are fUK bois.

Ultimately leaves me with the never regret choice.

I had a 2010 Genesis Coupe 3.8 before my Z.
The genesis self destructed one night, woke up at 1:30 am from a loud noise and my lil red Genesis was on fire. Fire department said no sign of foul play.
Death by suicide!
