UNTIL INFINITY!!!!!



lol ok that was my childish answer....here is my real answer...

my brother said he wants it before i get to 50K miles.

WTF

Since it will be the second vehicle soon...I probably will keep it for maybe 4 years - then im sure something else will catch my eye. I will have gotten 4 raises by then, so I KNOW something else will have caught my eye LoL My brother is going to buy the 350, so I'll still get to visit & drive my baby.

I plan on keeping it and if it survives, to give it to my son one day (after I get married and have kids, of course). It might be considered an antique by then, but at least it'll still retain some sentimental value in passing it on...

I'll be keeping it for at least 4 years. After the lease runs out I'll consider if I want to keep it or not but, who knows, maybe a bigger, badder Z will be out before then.

I'd love to keep my Z long enough to eventually pass it on to my children (when I finally get married and have some, that is). In the meantime, the only way somebody else will get the keys to my Z is by prying them out of my cold, dead hands....

At least 3 years, but most likely a year or two more.

Who knows

Alot of variables to be concerned with

Financial situation
Future Automative models
Lifestyle change
Boredom lol

I'm pretty fickle since January of 2002 I've owned 5 different cars, 3 of which were brand new. Who's to say what the future will hold, I mean right now I'm pretty much 99% happy with my Z. I say ask me again in a year lol

I plan to keep mine 10-15years, maybe longer. I love this car and think it may become a classic.

Do I smell TT in the future - from someone either Toyota or Nissan. That will be the day. Oh hell, I might as well keep the Z and just pick up a new Supra.

I don't plan on getting rid of mine. If I have kids in the future, then it will become a Sunday driver at the very least.

As far as upgrading is concerned, I'd have to spend twice as much to get something marginally better imo. Besides, it'll be paid for in a few years. Right now, I almost own 2 wheels!

My wife and I remember getting rid of our 72 240Z in 1974. One of the worst thing we did since we've been together that we agree on.

I figure I can drive it until the 450Z comes out in 2009 then use it as an occassional Sunday driver until the kids get it in the estate. Brickyards are going to be expensive by then.

Probably a year or two. I get very bored with cars and always want something different. I'm 32 and this is my 10th car. I've also had 3 quads, 2 motorcycles, and 1 PWC.

I usually switch back and forth between luxury and sports cars. Also I usually buy used cars so I don't lose so much on the trade in but I had to have the new Z. If I keep this for 2 years it will be the longest I've kept anything. My first car is still my favorite though.
