I'm not overly rich but after owning my last car for 27 years from new. (1979 Datsun 200B SX ) I decided I needed a new car...so I bought a nissan 350Z Track. I'm like a kid in a toy shop. Big smiles each time I drive it. I am limited severely by the fact that I have only 3 points out of 12 on my licence. I leave home at 5:00 am to start at 6:30. The cops are on roster change at about that time so the 25 minute drive takes 15 It's not quite as exciting as the 70's technology at that speed but it's still fun. when the points grow back I can see some scary drives happening. BUT !! I really love the bragging rights when "non auto enthusiasts" ask why I drive such a nice car to work and not a cheap bomb and I say the Zed is my grocery getter and I've got something much better in the shed at home. . . the smile gets bigger !
