Love...?

theDreamer · 01-15-2010, 03:16 PM

I feel for the Z in the early promo shots, I went to the Houston auto show and got a chance to see/sit/touch the car without any pressure from a sales person and it sold me. I probably spent four or five hours at the auto show walking back and forth between BMW/Infiniti/Nissan/etc. sitting in cars, opening trunks, checking out all the features. I finally got a test drive and it made me know I wanted the car.
Now it was not all perfect, the car note (exhaust/engine) was not 100% what I wanted but I know aftermarket is around for a reason and I knew I would get what I wanted. But even with just intakes on my car I get into my car and just love driving it. The sound is secondary now, the radio I do not care about (was about to upgrade it), and all that matters is the car and the road in front of me.

It could just be you put *too* much thought into it. You said normally your decisions are more emotional based. Well, those decisions usually have emotional residue as well. However, your logical decision to get the Z doesn't satisfy any "desires".

For instance, I had a GF once. She was far from a 10 on the attractive scale, but she was smart, independent, and "good for me", but there was no "spark". Guess how long it lasted?

As others have stated, find something to create a little spark. Rebadge it, throw on some bolt-ons if you can, or add some interior "flare". A little personalization will definitely help create a bond between you and the car. Perhaps you can even go on a little road trip or something. :P

Same as a car just throw some "bolt-ons" on her

Yeah, but at least you can sell the "bolt-ons" of ur car when you get rid off it.

As with the GF someone else will thank you for it!
