My other car is a 1992 Nissan NX2000. It's still a daily driver despite the full roll cage, sparco seats, 6 point harness and stripped interior. Only have a few months to wait till I can listen to the radio again 
. Oh, and the car has 136K miles and 30 hours of track time, doesn't leak or burn oil, compression tests at factory specs. and drives like a Bat out of Hell. Nissan's SR20 engine is the real deal guys.

Currently driving a 2000 BMW Z3 Roadster. That will be gone before I get the Z because #1: it would make a terrible backup car for bad weather and #2: looking to buy a house soon and can't quite justify $800-$1000/month for cars! Probably pick up a beater for winter.

My other car??
Right now my other "car" is a mountain bike. The 350Z will be , at least for the moment, my one and only means of transportaion. On bad weather days I 'll just stay home.

I'm driving a 2000 Maxima SE until the lease expires in October. The other half of my garage has my wife's '96 Ford Ranger 4x4, probably the last vehicle I'll ever have to buy her. Can it get any easier than this?

I'm drivng a 1999 3000GT SL. Red w/ black leather. If I knew how to post a picture on this site, I would show it, as it is a real head turner.
I also have a 1995 3000GT SL Spyder socked away in the garage. White w/ black leather. Only 41K miles. Driven only on selected weekends. I'm thinking it will be quite the rare car someday.
I've been driving 3000GTs since 1993, as these are my 4th and 5th 3000GTs. I've had a ball driving all of them. Anyone else out there a 3000GT fan?
I'm gonna keep both just in case I happen to prefer continuing to drive these 3000GTs after I get my 350Z. That may be hard to comprehend to the many 350Z fanatics-remember I'm one of you-but I sure do love my 3000GTs & I can't wait for my 350Z.

my other car is a 2001 mazda mp3. it is a really nice little car. just needs a little more power. i was going to invest in a turbo charger for it but then decided to hold on to the cash and spend it on my 350Z. it was cool seeing the mp3 in this months road and track being tested against cars the likes of the ferrari modena, corvette z06, porsche 911 turbo, bmw m3, and lotus elise for best handling car. it actually beat some of those cars in a few of the tests. one guy even had it rated above the m3 in the final ratings. overall as a crew though it came in 8th (last) but hell, it beat out very good cars like the s2000, mr2, viper, and miata to even qualify for the comparison. not bad for a little $19,000 four-banger, definitely alot of bang for the buck. i cant wait to get my power fix from my 350Z though.

That's a great user name. No "Sir" or saluting required. Just a "Beat Nxxx" will do.
What did you order? Mine is a Chrome Silver w/ Black leather / AT / Touring.
