Or...
B. A girl who is decent in the sack, cleans, cooks, is pretty - not drop dead gorgeous, is a real friend, doesn't do oral - but is open to "other" things and let's you play video games as long as you want, and is content with being middle class; doesn't need to live like one of the Kardashians.
Not a tough decision, least not for me - B is the clear winner.
"B" is basically the "Z" and maybe can even be lumped into sports cars in general. In a time when gas is so expensive and it's getting tough to justify spending $85 to fill up the tank every 7 days (minimum), the "Z" and sports car in general like somebody above stated, all things considered is a pretty efficient car - gas wise.
So while everybody out there is walking around with their "trophy" wives, they see us (Z and Sports Car owners alike) and they envy us. Sure they get some perks with their wives, but as a whole - we are MUCH happier and they are dying inside wishing they were as happy as we all are.
Weird analogy, but I see it this way. It's like, people can drive their Prius' (which actually hurt the environment more than a Civic) or their Chevy Volt etc. to save gas, but are they TRULY happy in it? Sure it saves them on gas (i.e. great sex, beautiful etc.), but does it feel like a Z or sports car? Does it look like one? Handle like one?
If gas were $8 a gallon, ask yourselves this question, if you're a Z/sports car owner - would you REALLY get rid of your ride to give in to the times?
NOT ME!
I'd adapt and like some of you have stated above, I'd find other means to get to and from, but NEVER would I consider getting rid of my Z or sports car. And if I couldn't afford two cars - I'd find a way TO afford the gas by giving up other things that cost me on a daily/monthly/weekly/yearly basis. After all, we are Z owners damn it and all these people with their electric cars, solar cars, flux capacitor vehicles, trucks, Hybrid's and so on will eventually get rid of their cars for the next best thing (kind of like people who try DROID then the iPhone and realize how awesome iOS truly is LOL).
As for us - WE WON'T - because unlike them, our cars are INSTANT classics. We have a sense of pride and loyalty in a way these others simply cannot appreciate. And when sh*t hits the fan one day and all the car company's abandon gasoline because it's $20 a gallon - I trust that Nissan will make a Z which will go with the times and that too will be an instant classic. Because we understand this - we will own it and in the end, in the grand scheme of things guys, even though gas is just about $5 a gallon now, it's what - $15-$20 more total than what we're used to paying?
Guys, we spend that on ******** every week. Some of us are smokers (not I), some of us are pot heads (not I), some of us are addicted to video games (maybe me) etc. Whatever our vice is, if we budget correctly and FIND that extra $15-$20 a week for gas, TO ME that's a great trade-off.
So while everybody else is buzzing by at 60 MPH in their jelly bean, space ship looking hybrid's and "so called" environmental friendly vehicles - we'll ZOOM! by them IN STYLE...
BECAUSE DAMN IT! WE ARE Z OWNERS - IT'S NOT A CULT, IT'S NOT AN ACCIDENT, NOR IS IT A FAD...IT'S A CHOICE WE MADE...LIKE OUR Z FOREFATHER'S BEFORE US WHO PAVED THE WAY FOR US TODAY...
IT'S A WAY OF LIFE!
LMAO!!!!!!! Okay, I'm done ranting.
