How will you own your Z ?

I bought mine and have the intention on keeping it forever. Of course, time will dictate if that ever happens.

Personally, owning the facelifted Nismo, I feel this car will age very nicely. At least that is my hope. In 25 years I want to be able to pull this thing out and have it be like a what a 240/260/280z is today (yes, I know some of those are older, but you get the point).

At this point, I'm considering keeping the Nismo stock, save for some modest and easily replaceable pieces... Lowering springs, spacers and likely that's it.

And then I want to do a resto-mod 240z, and make it simply badass. A fully restored and purpose built hoon-mobile.

I'm more of a handling guy rather than a speed guy, so I likely will never get bored of the 370. I grew up honing my skills driving numerous FWD Hondas... Power was never big on my list... But throwing the car through a corner at, uh... spirited speeds never gets old. That, and it's not like car handling is drastically improving these days because, unfortunately, physics is a bitch.
