Well I had been driving a stage 2 '05 STi for about 4 years and was ready for a change. I wanted to get a true sports car, even though I could do anything with the STi: track days, autocross, towing my motorcycle, hauling stuff, etc. I also grew tired of not having any creature comforts.

I was really hoping to get a new Corvette Grand Sport but it was just outside my price range. So I started looking at everything else. I kept coming back to the 370Z as the best bang for the buck, not to mention it's gorgeous. Problem was, I had drove a 350 years back and wasn't impressed at all. I figured the 370 wasn't much better. I basically went to the dealership for a test drive thinking I wouldn't like it and that I could scratch it off the list.

Well I was pleasantly surprised. It was loads of fun to drive and I knew that it would be my next car. I've had one for a month now and couldn't be happier

I got my Z has a big "F-YOU" to my ex-fiance after we cancelled our wedding and broke up.

The good news? We're back together, with no wedding plans and I'm still driving a 2 seater, sports car. And...she loves it! We got her a SUV recently, so we should be ok once we do start a family.

My ex and I used to fight over this all the time, she would tell me I didn't need a $400 car payment yet she was bent over backwards paying $375 a month on her 2007 Scion TC because she was so in the red on her previous Altima.

I refused to budge and told her I'm getting a 370Z whether she likes it or not, needless to say a year later I have a Z and no biotch girlfriend.

A big shout out to the hoe for breaking up with me on Christmas Eve last year, made walking into my families house that much more awesome last Xmas
