Another Z down.

Akurei · 05-15-2017, 09:16 PM

I'll make this short and sweet. Got hit and totalled the car. Insurance paid the remaining balance in full.

Most people don't give the 370Z the props it deserves and most people get bored of any car from constantly driving it. However, the Z was special. I could drive another car or not drive it at all and come back to it and re-experience the reasons I boght the car every time. Try it, especially after a vacation.

I definitely want another Z down the road. For now I am being sent to Japan for 2-3 years and may go the GTR or MK4 route etc.

This forum has always been awesome. I hope it stays that way and active as I know it isn't as much as it use to be.

Hope to see you all again! Laters for now, at least I will be different car

That sucks ....but after you try the more expensive cars, with their extra cost, responsibility and power that 90% of the time you will never use...you will come back to our beloved Z and all will be good in the universe...

I often thought if I was in your shoes, I would buy a used high mileage Z and drive the s*it out of it!
Best of luck!
