This pertains to the "17 year olds getting Z's" debate...
i paid for it with all the money i had saved up from working a couple of summers and weekends and stuff.

Alright ready for this.
My grandpa for christmas when i was 5 started giving me a 100 dollars for christmas and 50 for my birthday every year. At 5 my dad told me i couldnt have that money till i was 12, not telling me he kept it in an envelope, when i turned 12 he said you can either waste this money or i can help you make more. so as a young boy i said make more, opened up a cosigned money market account and that money as well as all birthday money i ever got till i was 16 was put into a money market account. so with intrest over the 4 years and the market being good back then wielded me 5,000.00 i then worked in arizona at 15 for 3 months 5 days a week 9-5 at burns pest control for 7.00hr that gained me another 5k roughly. by the time i was ready to buy a car my parents told me they would help me with my first and that was it. I borrowed 7k because they said they would match whatever i bought but i paid all 10k i had. owned the truck till i was 17 during that time i also bought the mr2 from the money i made at my job as a r/c car worker. i then sold the truck and the mr2 to purchase my ep3 05 civic si for 15k. got bored of that at 18 sold it bought a 89 ef civic for 2k sold the ep3 for 10k worked from 16-now saw the 350z in a auction yard won it for 9500 bucks, sold the ef loaned 2k and bam i now own a 350z.

So.. You did a good job saving your money while killing cockroaches. Hmm....
Do you live car poor? How much does insurance cost for a kid your age with a Z? Doesn't leave much money for the dating and the ladies? Also while you were doing pest control, did you ever visit any farms? You know to rid anything that could harm the sheep or the flock.

lol you and farms. insurance is actually fairly cheap with my 4th year of good driving bonuses as well as being ticketless besides my good friends mom is a insurance agent i pay about 190 a month and work full time at starbucks and a go kart place, i also have another money market account with about 15k in it and another account that takes 100 a month and puts that in a cc. i live at home but its a choice and as long as im in school i can stay for free. oh and for the ladies i got a fiance who goes to school up north so i dont really have to spend to much for the time being

Wait,wait,wait.... You have a bride to be and your 19??? Does this make sense to anyone?
Post a picture of her and we'll vote on whether or not you should be engaged.
Also add a third to the list of people you need to ship some pumpkin to.
Just don't tell me it homemade pumpkin syrup.

You know you could give up both your jobs and work just one on a farm. Its better time management. Less stress as well. No one throwing frappuccinos back in your face telling you to make them again. At the farm you just have to keep your flock happy.
On with the pics so we can start the vote. You'll thank us later.
Age please? And what is a 350z Gt Roadster??

this thread keeps me entertained. But you gotta admit, getting a 03ish Z should be pheasable for someone between the ages of 17-19 years old. The car is 7 years old, and pretty cheap to get now. But when you say you have had 5 cars by the time you are 19 years old, and all or most of them are cars that should cost $10K or more, then there is something seriously wrong with the math & priorities in your life.
