Default Worst part about buying a Z!

Definately has to be cleaning out the garage to make room. I haven't parked a car in the garage in a long time. I hope to have my 2007 SMB Z pretty soon.

Worst part for me is making the payment and keeping my SMB CLEAN

Enjoy my friend, this car is worth all the little annoying things, like cleaning garage and car, although the payments could be done away with. But then the bank would be driving my baby!


Cheers

That should be a labor of love. First, you trhow out a bunch of useless crap, and then you have a nice home for your Z...and a place to work on it!

The first night I bought mine the toughest thing was parking it for the night so I could get some sleep.

It's all worth the changes man. Watch when you start checking up on your car a few times in the day even if it's safe in the garage. It turns into a habit to just look at it throughout the day =]

i think you should want to wash your house and clothes and even take a shower before you get her home. you shouldn't expose her to any sort of filth or uncleanliness. let her only see beauty so that she may, in turn, exude beauty.

Worst part of bringing home the Z was my other cars are jealous. They don't get as much love as they used to.
All my ladies are well taken care of however, the Z's my bee-ouch right now.

the fun part about cleaning out your garage and making space for the car, is that if you find stuff you haven't seen in a long time, you can sell it and make some money to buy stuff or help pay off the car =)

Cleaning out the garage will be a thing of the past once you bring her home. The worst part will actually be thinking of the Z 24/7 and falling in love with it. You're gonna be making excuses to drive it and stare at it when its parked. Lucky thing the Z can't file sexual harrassment charges against humans.

I bought mine and figured I would suck it up and drive it through the winter here in NY...

But now that I have it and have driven it, no way am I letting snow or salt touch my car...

So now I have to find a place with a garage to store it and now find a winter car to beat up on...

Oh well, I think it'll be worth the headache...

I tore down my previous garage and rebuilt another, bigger, cleaner one before letting her in.
