What does your Z mean to you or represent?

Rooster89 · 06-19-2011, 03:28 AM

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...

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

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..

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.

First new car and the best car I have ever driven!!!!

USINC97 · 11-28-2011, 06:45 PM

I wanted to drive something that looked good and I would not pass a dozen copies of it when I went down the road.

sheps58 · 12-07-2011, 08:28 AM

Great car. I only have 4000 miles after a year. My weekend car. I had a 1978 280z which was stolen in Bridgeport Ct in 1983 and prior to that an E-Type Jaguar.

The 370z represents an practical sports car with a guilt free price.

My dream cars however would be an E-Type Jaguar coupe with modern electrics and fuel injection or a Porsche 911 4S.

I was inbetween sports cars at the time and it looked like the best thing at the time (Feb 09) and by golly if it wasn't getting "best of" in every magazine at the time

USMCASA · 06-19-2011, 07:39 AM

Not your average sports car

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

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...
