Sorry if I posted in the wrong section of the forum, still getting used to it.

Well as of right now Ill be finishing up paying for my Civic at the end of March 2011. Driving that car made me realize I hate having more than 1 passenger in the car. Right now Im gonna be attending community college, so I will be living at home. Budget wise I think $30,000 is probably my max. It'll be my daily driver as well.

To address those questions, Im okay with the two seater. Performance vs. Luxury is a tie. Honestly I dont mind having a slower car but do prefer the extra speed.

BTW does the 350z(vq35hr) beat the g37s acceleration wise since its lighter?

It sounds like you're thinking this through pretty well. My question would be what will make you happier overall? A G37 is a more comfortable car, and you will experience the luxury of it every time you drive it. The 370Z is lighter and stiffer, but you aren't going to fully appreciate the extra g's it can pull on a skid pad or the faster 0-60 time when daily driving it. I know other people will fight with me on that one tooth & nail, but those aspects are primarily cerebral if it's a DD.

My point is spend most of your money improving most of your life most of the time. That said, I have a Nismo as a weekend toy and thoroughly enjoy it.

Yeah you bring up a point about DD cause my friend does the hellaflush thing and roads here kinda blow most the time. Even for my stock Civic. So in that point I think I prefer the G but the main problem, I have unpredictable moods. So, one day I may wanna chill and the other days I may wanna just go on the mountain roads. I dunno is the G sporty enough to handle sharp mountain road turns? Im only gonna lower enough to where its still functional. I just like the Z cause its a nice looking and IMO a great sports car that compete with like evo and sti. But I know I have to think long run here as well. This is too hard, but really appreciate the input guys!
