Default Sold the Z

Well, after 2 years of ownership, I sold the Z today. Have to make room for something with a back seat. Kinda sad to see her go, almost like breaking up with your girlfriend, you know you'll miss her, but you know there are others.

On the brighter side, the wifey loves the 2007 G35 sedan and we're going to the Infiniti dealer this weekend to see what they have in stock. I think that would be a fair replacement.

G37 has four seats.... If you have young kids it's perfect. You'll want something new in 5-7 anyways so might as well have some more fun.

no support from me man. maybe you have a kid or kids (or one on the way like me) but i am keeping my Z. my wife has her silly SUV and i have my other car (98 Neon sedan).

sometimes a man has to work some overtime or something to keep his baby. i am living on Army pay, which isn't great, so if i can do it, anyone can!

i would get rid of my wife before my Z, lol........

My buddy's got an '07 G35 Sedan, and it's faster than my Z because it's got the HR motor, and AWD. Definitely a sick car, go for it!

I was reluctant to sell the Z, but seeing as I didn't have another car to be able to haul the kids around, I had to switch to something with a back seat. And I figure, might as well still have some fun when being a chaufeur to the kids, so that's why I decided on the G.

Looking forward to test driving one this weekend.

Nah, if he got another coupe, his wife would probably cut his ***** off. We all know how upcoming mothers are when it comes to guys and their sport coupes.

Gotta think it would be cheaper to get a good used 4 door than sell the Z and buy a new G? The tax alone would be enough to get a good 2nd car the wife could drive. She wouldn't appreciate that? Now if you have a lot of ticket the insurance might kill ya. But, the convenience of my wife having a car has always justified the insurance. Don't get it ????

i agree 100% here

get her something with room to drive, a used minivan or something. does she work? if not, make her, lulz......i know, easier said than done. but seriously, you shouldn't have to give up your car when there are other (better) options out there for ya.

i know if i didn't have my "fun car" to drive, i would go apechit crazy.........see how the family likes a nutty dad. next thing you know, you will have to give up sunday football!
