My Z is a POS

I'm right with you, actually!
I love my '16 Nismo I just bought, but it's not my only car or daily driver.
I have a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon for things like snow and ice, taking the dog and/or family around, or hauling things.

The Z is a pretty bad "primary car", if you ask me? Not enough room for much of anything in it, and uncomfortable to get in and out of it (although I like the Recaro seats once I'm sitting in one and have it adjusted). It's going to use up expensive tires and a lot of premium unleaded gas too, when you're spending the bulk of that in traffic - where all the performance capabilities are just wasted.

When I was a lot younger and there was no way I even had the money to imagine owning more than one vehicle at a time? Yeah, I owned a sports car. I was more worried about the "image" and driving something "fun" than anything practical. And hey - I didn't have anyone to take around except me and perhaps a girlfriend.

But these days -- I would never put up with all the trade-offs a 370Z makes you put up with, as my ONLY ride. It's great as a car to pull out on weekends or that random nice day when you feel like driving it to work though.
