If only I wish! You got one number correct, the 7! I'm 57, born 12/22/53. I realize it's personal preference but I have to laugh when I see people getting automatics with sports cars. Why bother? Why not buy an Altima or Maxima 3.5SE. That way you can have sporty performance and a back seat. I traded my '07 Altima 3.5 SE for the Z. It had plenty of power for sure and was loaded with all the extras and I didn't have to shift it. It was a beautiful car but was dull and boring to drive. If you enjoy an automatic Z, that's all that matters. Let ME take a guess and at the risk of sounding sexist, you're married and the only way your wife can justify you making the purchase is if she can drive it too, i.e automatic. Just a hunch!

hahaha, well, it's good to be young at heart.

i am married, i have 2 kids, my wife does not drive MT, she does not go to my cars' bedroom (aka garage). all 3 of my cars are MT. the dd she drives is in my name, not that she can't afford her own car, and it's the only AT i have. she's not a car person so has no interest in driving my Z.
