the 350z and my futures ended last week, sold! i think the 350z community willl only get bigger as more younger people go a hold of the car. younger people are more tech savy and will spend more time on here. imo

for better or worse.

there are going to be lots of people with poor taste totally ruining the image of their Z with dubz and underglow kits and lambo doors and all sorts of ricer or untasteful stuff. already seeing a lot of it since the Z can be had for so cheap.

Well, since it will only be a year old in March, I will be keeping her awhile. Don't really like the 370Z enough to take that big a hit on trading in the 350Z. I want to keep her a long time and slowly do upgrades/mods.

My Titan (04) will be 5 years old this March. It has been paid off for more than 2 years now. They probably will stop making them soon. I want to keep her as long as possible too. Wish Big Red fit in the garage, she would last longer. I don't want any other truck.

I just got my 350 and now the 370 is the rage.If I went and bought a 370,then the 390 will come out.Cars are like TV sets,as soon as you buy,something better comes along.

Once I take it to the track and do a few mods to it I am sure I will sell it and go for something different. I get bored after about two years. Although I must say that this car has been the best experience since the beginning and who knows this may be the first car I actually keep for a long time. We'll see after a couple track days how it holds up.

I'm going to keep my Z just like I kept my 1st gen Altima that I bought in 92. People will see it and think that it's an 08. It's really an 03. With both cars I'll return to Germany and the AUTOBAHN and retire in 4.5years.

Keeping the Z for a LONG time especially since the engine is getting replaced due to 06' oil consumption. Need to finish the exterior then saving up for a daily driver. Planning on getting Nismo V2 front bumper and ings side skirts in the near future.

+1. I have been seeing a lot of that lately and its disgusting. I have a feeling to continue for a while too. Hopefully though, now that the 350 is discontinued, over the upcoming years the 350z will become a rare prized possession and will start being collected by people who truly value the looks and heritage of the 350z and no longer by people who like to slap on ridiculously oversized rims and ricey body kits.

I love my Z, it's been only 7 months since I had her, and it's been nothing but happiness ever since driving home from the dealership. My parents always lectured me on cars, how its not an invesement, never sell it bc you lose money, keep it until it shts on you, and take care of it etc. Shes definitley a keeper, can't wait till I take her to the track and start modding once it's paid off. NA power, nitrous, and boost, here I come (in that specific order)! Once I get older and get settled down with a family and kids, move up to something roomy and still fast, but the Z will still be there in my garage, I will be that old guy with the near mint TT'd 350Z while all the youngins will be driving in their 400Zs.

And about the 370Z, it's nice, but not enough looks or performance to make me trade my current Z for one, so I'll be around the forums for a while.

Amen brother! My wife would kill me if I bought another vehicle. I've been going through 'em pretty quick. Besides, she just got an '09 G37 and my '07 being my second Z, I just can't see getting rid of it.

MY Z AIN'T GOIN' NOWHERE!
