But everyone has his own plan and his own dream to chase. Just don't "wish the years away." They'll fly by quickly enough!

Here Here!,good on yer old guy,I quite agree,I am 60 and have just ordered a 370Z roadster here in NZ.The most precious thing you have is 'Time',don't waste it,it the only thing you never have enough of.

"not yet an owner too." still got my eyes on the Z and been planning here and there for the mods when I get one.

used to own a 2003 Honda S2000 Type-V.

20, entrepreneur.

39 y/o, homeowner, 3 kids :10, 7, 2. Thankful that I saved my money when I was in my 20's.....I drove a hot rodded Camaro SS for 8 years, so this is my first real sports car, though the SS did a fair imitation.

The wife drives the 8 seat Outback kid/bike/hobby hauler, I had to buy the family car first to accomodated the new child, so my sports car had to wait another couple years, and I'm glad because the 370Z was worth waiting for. I thought about a Corvette, but simply too expensive when you have the Z as an option.

I also cause trouble on my old Ducati 748S when I get the chance.

The wife, age 35, never worked, but is just starting school for her new mid-life career in a couple years, so I am looking forward to quintupling my discretionary income, getting a vacation home, and taking advantage of my 7 weeks of vacation (earned after 15 years of employment) to enjoy the Z and other hobbies...road trips through eastern Oregon, 120 corners in 12 miles, that sort of thing. I never had the time or the money until the last few years....

Good luck!

Makes me feel less special that it took years of college and work experience to land a great job and career path to comfortably afford the Z :(

26 here, condo owner, getting married next year (she drives a G35), happy Z owner :tiphat:

I agree with every word you said. That also describes me perfectly, except for the condo and girlfriend thing.

When I was in college, I was barely able to make ends meet with the mafia tuition fees that I had to pay. I wonder where do those people get all teh $$$ from to finance tuition and a sports car

shabarivas 12-29-2009 01:52 PM

19 - purchased my G35 (w/ a little help from my mom for the downpayment)
21 - purchased '91 300zx
23 - purchased my Evo X - also happened to write it off soon after
24 - sold G and used my evo moneys towards the Z

Zsteve 12-29-2009 02:02 PM

So it looks like the Z is a car for all ages then. Thats a good thing as it can be appreciated by all ages.

Step son - my wife is 3 years older than me. Though I call him mine as I raised him since he was 4.

I'm 54, divorced, no kids and making a comfortable income. I love sports cars and have always owned some type of performance car and until I'm so old and arthritic that I can't get in or out of one, always will. I still got the same thrill out of buying my new 370Z as I have with all of my other cars. I drive it pretty easy as a daily driver, but once in a while I still remind myself why I love sports cars.
