Motives of Purchase: Well my previous car was getting up in miles and it was about time. I was actually in the market for a G35c but a family friend had bought this car and put 4k miles on it and he also bought a truck and a boat. Stupid choice spending all that money but he had to sell the Z. I picked it up for what he owed on it. It was bought in 2002 and was one of the first Z's in the US.

I don't see what peoples' problem with these young kids getting Z's is all about. At least they're not getting Ferrari's! Being pissed at them for their parents' buying them cars is really no different than being pissed at someone who's born in a gutter for being poor. It's just easier to feel sorry for someone who's born poor. Stop the hatred! Besides, it's not like we hear the 50+ yr olds hating on us mid-20's for having the Z at such a young age. You just gotta grow up and get over it, *****ing ain't gonna do anything about it.

-Chris

Occupation: Project Engineer/Intern, Student...

Seriously, for all of you that keep *****ing about the young guys its your own damn fault...if you would have worked hard and had a drive to succeed when you were young, you would appreciate seeing a nice car in the hands of young guys..and yes my dad bought me the DSM, but I bought the Z...My Dad worked hard to get where he is and im doing the same...So when your son or daughter ask you for a first car and you can't afford it, just blame your F****** SELF!
