Tell your local legislature.

Meanwhile, my local legislature made it illegal to drive while texting or talking on the phone, but yet they say it's ok if you're on a hands-free, even though the real problem with talking while driving is that you're distracted, not that you have one hand off the wheel.

HA got that beat for idiocy, here in wisconsin you can't text while driving but you CAN read text's and browse the internet on your phone.

Edit: also i find that the little useless pocket in the dash is great for holding a burrito or two.

How much would it cost if you buy the sports package Z but install the front and back of the Nismo including the rear wing?

Eating while driving = its a sports car, you don't eat in it! unless you want stains all in your $35k car. Come on dude. If you bought an automatic, you probably wouldnt have as much fun the time you are not stuffing your face.

Road Noise = dynomatt the trunk, perhaps the whole car. Cost about maybe $500, if that.

Red Exterior = full vinyl wrap it! it will cost you less than trading it in and when you take it off later you got new paint!

I say keep it! you bought it impulsively anyways, cut your losses and enjoy, its a great car! and if you are worried about the harsh ride, im sure someone here will trade you some base wheels and probably throw you some cash too.

You can eat and drive as long as it's hands free.

You already took a loss on one car (the roadster), are you sure you want to take ANOTHER loss on this car? I mean, if the 1st time you returned it...so be it, but to do it a 2nd time....why??

I see you live in Dallas (me too); if I had the money I would be curious what you would be selling it for, etc. Hmm...have you thought about having someone take over payments for you with some cash on the side to not make the loss TOO bad?

Maybe it's cheaper to "fix" the car instead of trading, maybe try different springs and dampers? Isn't most else "Nismo" just lipstick and hairspray?

I don't know about an AT on Nismo, but a Dual clutch type transmission similar to the GT-R might be interesting to see.

That would be pretty cool to see. Launch control would be awesome too

Putting a auto tranny in a 370z Nismo might just be the worst idea I think I have ever heard.
