Bought the 370Z when I was 36 and got my first Z, 300ZX when I was 16.

Well, as for me, I'm 54 could have retired 2 years ago but decided to save my butt off so that I could get my '11 Z Touring/Sports for myself as a retirement gift. It will be arriving this April and I'm retiring in May. I so can't wait to get it and baby it! Life is good!

Geez...
Can any of you tell me you didn't see this turning into a discussion about youth, managing finances and entitlement?

Me? I was 40 when I bought my Z and it's my mid-life crisis car. I couldn't afford an F430, so this is what I ended up with.

I like 370zHawaii's chart. I'll play along too:
41-now - 2000 Ford Ranger XLT 4X4
40-now - 2009 Nissan 370Z
39-now - 2006 Mercdes Benz C230 Sport (wife's)
39-40 - 2007 Mazda Mazdaspeed3 (sold)
31-39 - 2002 Jeep Liberty Sport (traded)
31-32 - 1992 Yamaha FZR 600 (race bike - sold)
31-40 - 2001 Yamaha R6 (converted to race bike after one year - sold)
30-41 - 1989 Nissan Pickup 4X4 (sold for salvage - 100% used up!)
27-32 - 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse (wife's - traded)
27-now - 1992 Mazda Miata (project car, SCCA class winning autocross car)
21-27 - 1986 Cadillac Sedan DeVille (bought it off my parents after eating crow)
19-22 - 1976 Yamaha XS650 (sold)
19-21 - 1980 Honda Accord (sold to a salvage yard for what I paid for it)
18 - 1987 Toyota Corolla FX-16 GT-S (got it repossessed after moving out of my parents' house while I was in college)
17 - 1978 Dodge Diplomat (bought it off my parents)

Mine is the story of bad decisions and wrecked credit through my 20's, but I still managed to find a way to pursue racing sports as my hobby.
Take that for what it's worth.

Default What is the average age of a 370z driver?

So after talking to my old HS buddy who owns a 370z, we brought up the question, what is the average age of a 370z driver? We figured it will be much older than a punk 18 yr old ricer but we truly had no idea. Were both 31 now and are tired of the little kids and are ready to get out! Anyhow, I would love to hear the responses here and see the average age. I hope this topic hasnt already been raised, if so, I am sorry!

Looks like you and I almost have the same history! I had a 280zx turbo at 23 and also have a roadster which IS the best of them all!

Looking to be a 370Z owner. It will happen at age 25 or 26, depending on when I find someone who has a car I want in stock within road-tripping distance, or who will dealer-trade.

Im 20 come spring time i'll be looking to purchase. I saw a post asking how people my age can afford one and that is usually we live at home and don't have to pay rent/mortgage. I got in a company that makes stages for big artists like metallica, lady gaga, U2 as a tig welder and there is crazy overtime all the time so ive been working 50-60hrs a week while being a full time student. It adds up fast when there are little bills.
