There is nothing sexier than a real old convertible.

I plan on keeping it and driving it until it stops running and then probably doing an engine swap and continuing to drive it, 
. This car's styling is timeless so it's going to be a car that down the road will still look gorgeous and get looks.

My last joy was a Triumph TR-6 ('73). Wife made me sell it--needed more practical transportation and besides it was nearly impossible to find leaded premium any more. That was 27 years ago. Saw my '03 chrome silver touring 350Z one fine summer day during driver training (I'm an instructor) , parked in a drive, for sale. Pulled over, checked it out, and the rest is history. I love it. Most of my students ask how I can afford to drive a Ferrari (that's what they think the 350 is) as do many of the neighbors. I think it will be a classic and plan to keep it FOREVER. Where could you ever get this kind of car for this kind of money, I ask you. And, to top it off, my wife approved and, at 4 foot 11, this is the fist sport car that she can see out the window and reach the pedals at the same time (and yes, she has tried a number of other sport cars). Simply icing on the cake.

The 350Z owner will keep his car for about 9 years.
