i'll be keeping mine for a while... at least 6-7yrs. maybe longer. i donno. it would really depend on how much time i will have to motor this car.

i really like the Z, as much as i like my 8yr old G35C (original owner).

I think I'll keep mine, then again I tend to get vested in cars so I can see myself building her and keeping her for the long run.

I am definitely keeping mine as long as a I can. Even with the new baby, still finding ways to keep her lol

I actually got mine with a few K's on it last year...the original owner brought it back to the same dealer because he couldn't afford it (had 3 cars already or something)

Dealer told me thats the main reason they ever got a GTR or Z back...

I like the rarity of the Z. I only see maybe one or two a week if that.

Hahaa! I have 2 daughters and my Z is staying with me until it ceases to function (and that won't stop me from trying to resurrect it).

The the OP:

I searched the whole US for a NISMO while I was in Iraq. I wanted a '10, but no-one had one at the time. I found 3. Black in OH, White in IL, and Red in AR. So when I got back to the states, I was on a plane to AR to pick up my 09 SR NISMO with 6mi on it. The funny part is thaty had to hide it in the back showroom of their Ford dealership accrossed the highway from the Nissan dealership. They held that car for me for about 6 months (OCT-MAR). I had a F.I. TDX waiting @ the house before I picked up the car, lol!

I am close to 30 but i dont think i am gonna have any kids soon. And i am gonna keep my Z for a long time as well, but i might trade it in for a newer model Z if they decide to continue the Z line.

A little math that you might find eye-opening.
