You may not get the "two seater" love out of your blood stream so easily. I'm 60 and this is my fifth Z. Missed the 240 but had a 260, 280 and two 300's. Nissan made me wait a bit for this one but love it all the same.

You don't have to be 20 to have fun!!

I'm 55 and this is my 4th "Z".. I go back to the original 1970 240Z.. I had a chance to bring a 1969 fairlady Z back from Japan but I was afraid driving a right hand drive car in the US would be a pain in the A$$.. It was worth the wait got the 350Z.. It's way ahead of any of the original's... By the way, I paid $3165 delivered for my 1970. 240Z... and $6635 delivered for my 1974 260Z ..

Steve (k2we) Dobbs Ferry, NY 12,145 miles since Sept 17th...

bought it at 21, now 22. bought it myself, and pay tuition.
Funny story: I was at Nissan a few weeks ago getting my oil changed. My car was in the back and I was in the showroom looking at a Z. There was a salesman showing the car to a customer who appeared to be in his early to mid 30's. They were standing beside the car talking about it while I slipped by and got in the car to check it out. As I got out of the car the customer looks at me and says, "you look good in that car, keep working hard and you'll have one someday." The salesman, who knew me, laughed and preceded to tell him how cool my car was and how much trouble they went through to get it to me since the car I ordered was delivered to the wrong dealership during a big snowstorm this past winter. anyway, it always seems to amaze people that I can afford a $35k car, including my boss who constantly begs to drive it.

Forty frickin six.

Bought my first new car in 1977. A 280 Z, first year they were fuel injected. Probably owned 25 cars since then, none that have given me more pleasure than that 280.

Another 18, paying for everything myself... The reason all of us young bucks put stuff like "parents not paying" is because lots of people just assume that we are spoiled (not to say that some aren't), but it gets old. I work 6 days a week and own a dj business on the side, and people will just come up and ask if my mommy and daddy bought the car and it's pretty wack. Oh well, haters will be haters.

I also had a 77 280Z and regretted selling the car.

35 but don't feel like it ... just raising the average. Got my 350Z to replace my Maxima lease. It's my daily driver now. If I need haul people or things they go in to the 4Runner. Looking forward to getting a Volvo S60R soon if things work out.
