never understood why kids needed sport cars to go to school. take the bus or bike.
I've come to find the mentality in America or any other first world, that life isn't about what you need but more about what you want. Of course in different countries with less development, life is still about what they need.

Nismo

Are your knees bad? Why are you worried about driving a manual sports car in college.

Here it is in a nutshell.
You will regret getting rid of a Nismo. You will never regret getting rid of a base.
Automatic, pish posh.

Definitely not Atlanta, so many exotics here I highly doubt they'd be snapping pics of a Z. It does get a lot of looks though cause I do in my Nismo as well, but no pic snapping at all. And take some pics of both of these Z's you have cause I doubt seriously that anyone with a Nismo already would have a hard time choosing it over a base model Z..............Just Saying!

Are you going to be accruing student loan debt?

Are either cars paid off?

Are you going to be seeing a temporary reduction in income while you're a student?

Why not sell both, buy a cheap reliable car for college and then after you graduate and land a good job, get 6 months salary saved up emergency fund, then get something a bit nicer?
