When you've got cars getting 50 miles to the gallon and the country has already been mostly de-industrialized yet inflation continues to soar, I guess it's just kinda hard to sell candy to the candyman no matter how many commercials you put on the boob tube.

mmmm boobs! ( . v . )

Last night, a guy roll up next to me at a light.
Him: What car is that?
Me: 370z
Him: Ya, what company?
Me: Nissan
Him: Nice car. Take good care of it.
Me: Yep I will. Thank you

Green light

I read and hear comments like this all the time, but I can't figure out the math that makes purchasing, insuring and maintaining another vehicle to save a few bucks on gas a productive or sensible decision.
Seems to me like it would be a wash at best.

Outside of gas and fees/taxes, not sure where the crazy inflation you are talking about. Please don't take economics lessons from some bias nut job, use some common sense.

With all respect, do you shop at supermarkets these days?

:iagree:

Yeah. It would take a long time or a lot of driving to be saving money by buying an additional car. The only way I see this working is if you need another car to use as a family car or something and need more seats/space than what you have in the Z.

I was driving to my girlfriend's house yesterday and saw another PG 370Z on the opposite side of the road, he rolled his windows down and told me it was nice seeing what his car looked like from another point of view, I replied with a "Me too." :)

i hope i dont sound like an a$$hole for saying this, but i have more to be concerned about than a 10 dollar increase in my food bill per week. house prices doubled since the 90s, oil going up 400% in 15 years, electric bill, heating bill, insurance,taxes, fees, tolls, basically everything but my paycheck. on the other hand, the price of goods and technology have fallen. i remember paying 20 a month for a pager in the mid to late 90s, netcom used to cost me money. regardless,people who arent rich or dirt poor will get forked no matter what. its just a matter of how much lube they give you.

i dont know or claim to know about everything in the economy, but i at least have some common sense and can tell some difference between whats real and whats not.

Sweet. This thread is turning into another politics thread.

Nissan does not need to advertise the 370. Its a car the sells its self. Most people know they want that car and thats it. They walk into the dealer knowing thats the car they want. Unlike an Altima or something.

cossie1600 04-04-2011 11:12 AM

i dont think people who lives outside of the snowbelt realize how annoying it is to buy a car that cant be driven in the snow without spending 1200 on rims and tires

I always keep 2 vehicles. Before I had a G37 and altima 3.5. I'm not going to live life in a 2 seater alone. I got rid of both my G and altima so now I'm getting a new second vehicle. My last pair of cars, both guzzled gas. This time I want my second car to be more furl efficient.

How is that a wash???? You should know all the facts b4 making half azz comments.
