This was my first car, the one I had before this. I had to sell it, to provide further funding for the Z. I got it because I'm a Kenwood dealer, it used to be one of the four Kenwood USA demo trucks. I do miss it...

lol...I'm 17 and my first car is about to be a manual 2004 350z touring. Gunna go pick it up tomorrow and I'll practice for about an hour at night. That should be enough to get me used to the manual, plus my area is dead ofter 11:00.
I was about to get a 300zx but that didn't happen. My parents didn't want me to get something that old. And please don't think I'm spoiled. They are paying the down payment on this 23,000 dollar car (a generous 5000) but I have to make the rest of the payments plus insurance. I make about 1500 a week, that should be enough, especially since I'm on their insurance.
Sorry for the rant, I saw the number 17 and got excited.

Im 17
Im 17 in about 6 weeks and Ill have a 07 350z Nissan Nismo about a month after my brithday.
Your first thought is im completely spoiled but im actually somewhat lucky and unlucky.
Was in a car wreck 3 years ago n the company truck that hit us screwed up my moms neck n she had to have surgery 3 times, as for me my lower back is messed up and it effected sports and such. Soooo im making bank on a court settlement.
But when i hit 16 i bought an 05 Mustang with my own money, about 2 grand from finishing the payments now.
So lucky and unlucky.

glad yer not crippled atleast man! enjoy that car and treat it with respect.
im 22.
started with a 98 civic that was my sisters, then my moms, then to me. then all of a sudden there my dad came up to me near my 21st birthday and said "350z or gto?" and so i says "i cant afford either, but i can probably get away with a rsx type-s." he says "i already checked and the insurance on the type s is more than the Z, and it dosent matter cuz ill buy it" ....
would anybody say no to 30k?
so ya... ive had it for almost 2 years and no tix and no accidents and the car is in the same condition as it the day i got it.
