What does your Z mean to you or represent?
 

Just like the title says, any special sentiment? I mean we all know the z is an amazing car. Just looking below the surface here. Looking forward to hearing responses.

EDIT: I don't think this is a repost, but i must admit i used the search and then only waded thru ten pages of threads. don't really want to go through all 100+

I like any machine or product that accomplishes its purpose efficiently and with style and elegance. This Z has more than enough of both to satisfy me.

Elegance and affluence...

Not your average sports car :driving:

I put my kids through college and now it's my time.

:iagree:

Also represents working hard, and rewarding myself. Felt this way about all my other cars.

exterior: the curves

interior: well...the interior is pretty sweet (pilot "like" cockpit).

under the hood: more hp and tq than my 04 MACH1 Mustang!

handling: like a slot car track!

nostalgia: hearkens the days of the 240, 260z, nough said.

overall: best bang for your buck sports car imo...

an achievement

A boyhood dream...come true.

It means continuing with Datsun for 30 years. It means that sports cars can be practical daily drivers for years, not just before you settle down.

I have a different view of driving than a truck driver or econo driver. I want to get past anybody who wants to drive slower than I , and to pull over for anybody who wants to go faster than I. Sort of like the "Golden Rule": do unto others as you would have done unto you. which is a metaphor for my life too.

It means more to me than just this too. Perhaps I'll edit this later.

It doesn't give me attitude like the rest of the world. So I'm at peace when I'm in it.

It's like an achievement. I made sure my family had all they needed and some of their wants before I purchased my Z.

this is exactly why i bought mine.... i worked hard.... didnt know what i was saving for but i was saving..... came across the Z in feb..... did hours upon hours of research.... bought the car (much to my parents dismay).....and now they even say its an outstanding car :)...you know what makes it even sweeter? i worked my tail off for it....now i smile EVERY time i walk towards it ad away ......flawless...AND on top of that...i dont get have a 6 figure job, i dont have alot of money, i work in a warehouse.... and what not..

Hard work. dedication. Enjoy the fruits of your hard work

im gonna start modding it soon =)

1st new car..... All the hard work added up to something.

Hmmmm...let's see....I could have bought a Cayman for $40K more, but now I have a car that's just as fast, turns *more* heads, and I have $40,000 to spend on booze, tits and vacations. :yum:
