Do you have a 2nd car?
 

Im about to buy my Z. I was going to sell/get rid of my current car, which is a ford focus. But then I was thinking maybe I should keep the focus and use it for such things as when I go to the beach/gym etc, so that I dont get my Z alll dirty.

So, how many of you have a cheaper 2nd car to use?



*tweet*

I only have the Z

I had a 01 Subaru Forester but the motor let go right before 200k so I leased a Nissan Versa SL. Once this lease is up I will be buying my moms 06 Civic and that will be my new DD. In this part of the country a DD is almost a must, that and the Z is not very practical for everyday use.

I DD my Z through anything. It even endures the gym.

i have a lightly modded G35C for daily tasks. if you can, keep the beater for your daily needs. for me, it's not worth getting dings and crap while at the stores and such. it also snows where i live and that means road is filthy with salt. car can handle it, but i dont like getting my toy car dirty. also i have 2 kids so i need the rear seats. :icon17:

i dont even use my G on the weekends to go to the stores. i use my honda fit for that since i care about my G too...

I also have my Trans Am, 1997. But it doesn't get driven much. I have it in mind to be a collector. Only 34,000 miles on her. Red with red leather...supercharged.

So you have a DD for your Z and a DD for your DD. Must be nice money bags LOL!!!!

I got my chevy duramax... Usually drive that to work and tow the toys around.. The truck cost double the Z though :/

The Z is a toy/weekend car for me. I daily drive a F-150. If you can swing the extra cost (insurance, maintenance, etc.) associated with a second car I say do it.

Ummm... pics? :yum:

My Z was my DD. Now my 5.0 is. But I have access to a few other cars if needed so it's not that big of a deal.

My other car has been in the shop since early September. The Z is my every day reliable car.

I have a Ford Ranger my DD and the old lady has a Mazda CX-7 for the family. Most of the time at least I will have two cars.

I have a tuscan sun 2012 altima 2.5s as well.

2007 Toyota Tundra for winter DD and towing the toys...

Z is DD for warm weather and sunny days. Altima comes out when it rains or snows or when its too cold for the tires to get any grip.

Second car is another Z. Z71 Avalanche.

Yep, this way, the Z won't need to be sold when wife & kids enter the picture ;)
Plus, it's a sports car, not a grocery getter.:twocents:

My Z was a daily driver for awhile. After a couple of snow/ice storms here in Oklahoma that put me out of commision for a few days each (I resorted to driving my wife's Miata - gak!), I relented and bought a real DD. I still break the Z out whenever possible.

For a couple months I had my Z and a Lancer Ralliart (before selling it) but couldn't bring myself to get into the Lancer at all, even for groceries, I took the Z lol.

Looking for a 2nd car (3rd for the family) now that we have the baby as I'm sure sometimes after work I'll have to grab him and can't do so in the Z...plus for a winter beater...sharing the wifes 328xi this winter has sucked lol.

My second car is a 71 240z.

I'm jealous. :tup:

Very nice pics!!!!!!:tup:

We use the Z almost each day. Sometimes it might not get driven. Life is way too short to not drive something you like. If you go to 1 car and its a Z, well, life will just be horrible for you :) :tiphat:

Got an '08 Power Wagon for off-roading and pulling the camper. DD is a '04 Jeep GC. And got 2 street bikes.

98 volvo s70 t5 for a dd.... although it is also kinda fun with 18psi running thru it

nothing beats smoking a sports car in a volvo... nothing..

I almost flew out to Portland in 2010 to buy a 1995 850 T5-R... I wish I did. :(

08 Honda Pilot for the daily grind. But working from home 100% of the time, im not sure its even worth owning a second car..........

My DD is a lifted F-250 and the Z sleeps in the garage !

Same here only replace Altima with Maxima, and I still drive my Z on rainy days. The Maxima is more of a beater though, it's a 97. I've got some blizzaks on it and pretty much just drive it in the winter.

I have a 99 Crapalier Z24 that is dying. Probably going to buy a new VW Golf TDI.

2001 Hyundia Accent on snow tires. 5speed. Its a hooptie, but the A/C still works so i'm happy.

that's a worthy beater! :tup:

Job is 1.4 miles from home, grocery store is 2 miles, and gym is .75 miles. It gets the job done. Unless I notice a hot chick with the same gym schedule as me. Then I drive the Z. haha

:rofl2: you should make a sticker "my other car is a 370Z" :icon17:

Which goes nicely with "No fat chicks" :tiphat:

Only the Z can fill the void

wat void would that be? :confused:

Nice. i love the R's. i actually kinda lucked out and ran across this one with a 5 speed by accident. they are hard to come by these days. i plan on holding onto it, cuz i could see the value going way up on these things in the future

I have a 2000 Civic Coupe EX and a 20056 Ford Escape AWD V6 for my other cars.



As soon as Thanksgiving hits the car goes in the warehouse until April :)
