370Z: Daily Driver or Weekend Car?

scruffydog · 06-10-2010, 03:36 PM

my 370z was suppose to be a spare car in case my 94 honda accord dies. Of course, being a Honda even with 250K+ miles it's running strong. But ever since I bought the 370z, I've been trying to come up with excuses so I could drive it to work, weekend, everywhere. It's such a fun car to drive, plus it turns so many more heads than my piece of crap Accord, it's hard to not drive it whenever possible.

However, I am suffering the price I pay for gas. For the same mileage full tank ~300 miles, I pay over $60 for my Z even though u'd think it's a more fuel efficient car considering it's newer, and I only pay ~$40 for my Accord. =( Sad... either way, I should be thankful it's not a GT-R. I don't think I can afford that kind life. (Not to mention it's maintenance)

It's been only 2 months since I bought it, I'm still trying to get myself to drive the Accord more....it's not really happening...
