I can afford a Supra. Anyone who bought a 370 can afford a Supra... I wanted something with a warranty while in school.

The problem with most people I know is that once they upgrade to the other cars listed, they don't DD the car... Sooooo, it's not apples to apples... Then again, I haven't a clue why people buy a 370 and weekend drive it either...

If I could afford a new-ish GTR (I'd have to buy under warranty) I'd only sell the 370 if I got a good offer on it, I wouldn't sell it for 15k if it was the last 15k to get a GTR. Not much of a Corvette guy, and I have no idea why you'd BUY a German car

My next car will be a DeLorean, or a classic 65-70 fastback Mustang, in which I'll be keeping the 370

well that could be because you're not old enough to know wat adulthood is about to be a responsible father with kids.

Agree. I don't have any kids.....yet, but my Z is still a weekend car. I never understood people who buy sports cars as their DD. If I could only have one car, I'd get something sporty and practical.

well, nissan made the Z as a 'daily sports' car which means dd'able and fun on the weekends so nothing wrong with dd'ing the car.

i personally dont like to dirty my hobby cars so i dont drive them to work or anywhere. even at work in the summer we get the landscapers blowing rocks and shittt on our cars, all the chips and door dings going around. i really dont need that stress.

i just drive a super practical dd to work and in the winter.

Lets see because my beater is a family car, my kids have their own cars and I am not married and I have a girlfriend. Third wheels need not apply for a ride.
How could you not want to drive a 370Z every day?
Next vehicle I get will be a truck fer haulin stuff like hay and worsh tubs. And no I won't help you move.

Lol. This thread is totally heading in the wrong direction... Sorry...

Honestly, I'm paying for this car, I enjoy it, I think it's comfortable enough, a bit noisy at times (road noise) but bearable... Soooooo... Why not drive it every day? (Granted, I live in Southern CA so weather permits it safely)
I wouldn't want to drive something I don't care to be in if I have a much better car at home. And I have done 700+ miles a day in it without problems, sooooo... Yeah... I'll DD it until I have to kick it to start it, or until it gets totaled.

Everyone has their own reasons for the things they do. Noone can tell you if its wrong or right. F$#k 'em if they try.
I bought my Z knowing it would not be a DD. I have several other vehicles That I use for daily things, and a company truck for my work day. I don't feel the least bit bad about the coin I layed out for the Z and not driving it on a daily basis. Its there when I want it. My other rides are all older, but in good shape with low miles (except the subaru outback with 225k). I'm the type that has never sold a car, ever. I drive 'em till they die, or are not worth fixing anymore, and they go to scrap, or hand them down to our 5 children.
A bit of irony..My brother is a car salesman!

Not many like you now a days! Seems like most, including myself, get a new car every 3-5years. Also no one seems to take pride in their cars anymore.

It's funny how the immediate reasoning is the inability to drive more than one person. Some of you guys must really hate having other people in the car with you, or mooches as friends/co-workers.
