I **** you not, my first words as a baby was "Datsun" in chinese cuz my dad had a Datsun Sunny back in the poor days and he loved that car...always talking about it. Those were my first words.

Yep! My first car was a Datsun 510. I loved that car. Pity I had to junk it when I moved out of town. Eventually I hope to get another one to play around with as a toy. But my Z is plenty toy to play with for now!

This is my third Pathfinder. I had a 1989 4x4 SE blue on grey bottom and a 1994 4x4 SE green with white leather interior. Have to say they were all reliable as hell, but the one that drove best and most stable was the 94. It drove like a rock. Most of my family has Pathfinders. Two of my sisters, my mom, my dad, my younger brother has a 06 Frontier with a Nismo badge on the side. Its safe to say that yes, were fans. But the I would put is like not so much fanatism, but we already know and understand the brand. Makes the maintenance and prices better and easier.

Not really. I didn't dislike nissan but they had discontinued the 300zx and all of the other sx series so I kinda lost interest in them UNTIL i saw the concepts and release models of the 350z. Wanted one ever since.

In 1989, my father bought a new 300zx Turbo. I fell in love with the car for the 2 weeks he had it. 13 days after pulling off of the lot, a women in a full size chevy pulled out in front of him, and the car was history

Changed the man for life, he used to drive sports cars, moved on to Suburban's (metal, lots of it).

Anyways, I continued to love the Z, and swore that I would own one of the Z32 models someday. I was 11 when I made that decision.

Fast forward 15 years later, and I fulfilled my prediction by driving off the showroom floor with with my 05' 350z. Its not the Z32... but I am certainly not complaining

Not really, I've never owened a nissan prior to the 06 Z. I use to be a die hard Toyota fan, that is until I bought a toyota that the shop had more than me over a 1 1/2 year period.

Thumbs up Definitely

I have been a Nissan fan for a while, ever since I bought my first Z ('77 280Z 5spd) in the mid-80s. Over the years I also owned '89 Pathfinder SE and '95 Maxima, and currently own a '98 Maxima SE and my '04 350Z Roadster.

This is my second Z. My first was a 90 300ZX. I have always liked the Nissan line of cars and SUVs. Of course, I like a lot of other cars and manufacturers, but I'm pretty happy with what I have now. I'm sure someday I'll have a Vette or other sportscar.
