Might be getting rid of the Z.

It doesn't have to! I can totally understand all of the OP's reasoning behind wanting to get rid of his Z. Other things like family and home should take priority over an expensive car. That's a mature decision! But when he got to the part about everyone wanting to race him and he was concerned that "honestly", he would feel the need to oblige, that's where I have to comment. I don't live too far from the OP so I know all too well that many young car owners out this way have a Need for Speed. Speaking as one of the "older statesman" Z owners here and maybe this is just an older "mature" person's view, I don't feel I need to prove that my Z is faster than anybody elses by racing. The Z is a beautiful car at any speed. I think once you start beating the crap out of it, you start to loose appreciation for what the car is overall. It can either be treated like a fine piece of expensive jewlery that you want to keep forever or costume jewelry that's easy to throw away. My Z is a daily driver but I treat it as yellow gold. I'll be keeping her for a long, long while until perhaps another Z catches my eye!
