maintaining costs alot of money? its like what? a oil change once or twice a year?

the tickets problem isn't the car but you.
Tires, Oil changes, Cleaning, Gas, Driving, Traffic, Weather Conditions.
Getting yelled at by all my friends and family for being shelfish and getting a 2 seater.

A. Evo X is way slower than 370z. I was smoking moddified EVO's and STI's with my then stock 370.

B. How the hell do you afford a 370 if your still in school, someone has to be obviously helping you pay your bills.

C. Some of your reasons to get rid of it you listed are "tires, gas, driving, cleaning, traffic, oil changes" Lets see, im at 15,000 miles and still on my stock tires, evo uses same premium gas and abut the same gas mileage, so I dont see your logic there, driving, well umm its a car thats what you fing do with it, cleaning...every car needs to be cleaned and unless you have lights and sirens on your evo, traffic is NOT gunna clear up just because you have an evo. Only logical thing you said is weather conditions because yes, being a previous evo owner myself, that AWD does come in handy in the winter

D. If money is an issue, you will LOOSE big time by trading in for an evo

E. TRUE car enthusiasts prefer the gsr over mr because gsr is stick (no offense AT guys, but we all know MT is the true way to go with a sports car) as well as it being known that the MR's transmission cant handle much more hp than stock, so you have really no options in modding it

F. There are plenty more mods available for the 370z than there are the evo

G. I got pulled over WEEKLY when I had my evo, that thing is a HUGE cop magnet! I have not gotten pulled over ONCE in my 370 in 2 years. I drive the same way I did with my evo, and my Z is 10x louder and more modified. I believe the 370 is a true gentlemans car. So if your worried about tickets and stuff, you mind as well put a sign on your back that says "I have a lot of illegal drugs and weapons on my person" cause you will prob still have less issues with cops than you will driving around with an EVO at 21 years old

My advice? Get rid of your 370 for a 14k Jeep. Finish school, grow up, learn more about cars, get a steady job, and then come back and buy a 370. I myself will welcome you with open arms
