What is this business idea that could bring in 5k a month? Did you get the idea from clicking on an ad? Or did the prince of ghana write you an email to send money to make this business? I'm curious.

5k a month is definitely 370z money.

Probably not. Maybe he took our advice. That or we scared him off to not post anything again.

lol screw that. Why don't you open up a ***** house? It's legal in some states. Or sell drugs, maybe a car detailer. Or maybe...a ***** house that sells drugs and details cars?

I lost a buttload of MY $ on my Z. I'll never buy another Nissan again.

If you have not yet gotten a Z don't do it.

That sucks but you will never make your money back when you modify any car not just a z. The value actually drops which is why I plan on keeping my z as original as possible and only nismo performance parts.

Where did I say it was an investment?

Motor 2 was the same motor as motor 1. Nissan choose to install a badly designed motor AGAIN and when it failed as they knew it would AFTER 12mi/12mo (at 16k/16months) told me to f00k myself.

That is why I'll never buy another Nissan and why I will tell anyone that will listen not to.

I am at 8 people that were seriously thinking Nissan but went elsewhere.

They won!

So my questions for you guys are:

-What should I say to convince my dad to let me trade? (Keep in mind, my dad is in the Army)
-What after market parts should I get that are a reasonable price?

Promise to baby the Z and always have it running good.

Every car company has it's shining moments at it's downfalls. Even though I have a Nissan i'm not going to completely dismiss all there cars because of one bad experience. I'm also kind of a car industry **** so I like cars from any manufacturer as long as it's a sports car.

Same here. I don't care as long as the car is well made and they have aftermarket parts to make the car better I'm cool

For most people, if you give them something that they don't really care about they will not take care of it, but if you give them something that they cherish and appreciate, they will take much butter care of it. But I said most not everyone

It's a secret because no one else in the entire world has ever done it or even thought of it. But it costs nothing to get into, there are no COGS, no overhead, and everyone in the world needs the product/service - they just don't know it yet but they will beating down his door shoving money at him. OR he is really going to sell ILLEGAL drugs like marijuana, lol.
