Owners Age

TobinH · 03-13-2020, 01:08 PM

I get 'mid life crisis' comments and outright envy all the time. strangely, it's very often from someone driving a $60k suv? I'm like, it's a $20k nissan dude. if you want one just buy one.

anyways I'm 40.

You're 62 and worried about people saying "mid-life crisis"?

I was older than that when I bought my '14 new, but I got all my mid-life crises out of the way in my 30s & 40s.

I gave up caring much about other people's opinions even before that. If you haven't done that by age 62, I strongly suggest you consider getting started on it.

Just my opinion:

The 370Z is overpriced for what the market is offering.

Besides,never accepted the "look".Typical Nissan. Start with a great design(looks good at all angles),them add stuff to make it look worse.
My 62'Jag E-Type ,perfect design.After--how can you add to "perfect"?

Need to go back to "out of the box" me says.

Lighter,balanced--cutting edge looks to the original.

Just sayin(So. expression I hate.

47 here … and I tend to go through cars pretty often. A Z has been on my list since I tried to buy a '84 when I was 16 (unsuccessful). Finally got one in 2017.

Old Jags ain't house broken, and have electrics made by Lucas, the Prince of Darkness. Could never keep the smoke in the wires.

49 here. On my 5th Z.

StormWhite · 03-16-2020, 04:29 PM

I am 63 and wanted a Z ever since I saw a 240Z back in the day.

I used my mid life crisis to buy a Yamaha YZF-R1 motorcycle (always had performance bikes when I was younger).

Now I own the R1 and a 370Z.

Beautiful looking car. Had 2 friends that owned them. Both leaked oil, and the electrics were cursed.
