why does anyone honestly care what someone else drives? if the kid doesnt have a Z hell get a mustang, camaro, firebird etc, its not like you would talk a 17 year old out of getting a Z to getting a family sedan, does it matter really anymore anyways? everyone is getting Z's now because they are so cheap.

I think your work ethic is great but you paid WAY TOO MUCH!
Most I would pay for an 03/04 is 15k no matter the mileage.
Better luck next time.

im just saying have looked at porsche specs, their boxster isnt all that great for how much you will pay for everything. A 350Z can be better than a lot of cars out there if you are willing to put money into it and know a thing or 2. 16 year old kids with a 350Z is just a horrible idea, give them a honda with crappy acceleration and low horsepower first

When will these kids get that it is not about the price anymore. Any kid working at McDonalds can afford one now. You don't have to be a spoiled brat to get one like when they were new. Everyone in this thread comprehends that. I'm still not too quick to believe all of the ones that say they got it on their own, but it definitely is possible.

Regardless of the depreciating value of these cars, their RWD horsepower does not depreciate outside of the engine starting to wear out from mileage. It will always be about Z's being wrapped around trees by kids and the lives that are endangered when these kids act like idiots in a car they have no business driving with their level of experience.

At one point, I used to laugh at the "I paid for it all by myself" spill, but now its not even worth bragging about. It's nothing. List your car and STFU unless you have something that will provide the lulz. Unless you just want to become the Cletus of the day that gets stretched without the benefit of lubrication.

It's been a while since we had a good gangrape in here. It's definitely due.

Ok, back to the cookie, the Bozo buttons, the reach around, or whatever makes you feel like you are special and would have not been better off left in a puddle on your mama's bedspread.

You that insecure about yourself and/or your car that you have to rant about people that doesn't affect you what so ever? All I'm saying is some of us are responsible & mature and actually work for a living & the things we want

This coming from someone who felt the need to assure strangers that he don't work at McDonald's and works at a chemical plant.

I'm sure you will feel more confident about yourself when your second ball finally drops.
