congratulations on making the wise decision!
delayed-gratification paid off in many ways for you it seems, you also did better with a 370z instead of a 350z in the end!

i was close to buying an e46 m3 for a DD last month since my Z (would've turned into a track/weekend car if i had gotten the m3) is already paid off... was kinda iffy for awhile and decided not to do it in the end... hoping i can hop into a used e92 m3 instead at the end of the year or something... like you not too long ago i graduated last year and managed an "ok" full-time position... and like you i guess i'll wait a lil

TongMan is the real deal. Super cool. Had a chance to meet him and he's one stand up guy and seems to be well grounded. Congrats on waiting for the Z. We have that in common I guess. After my 350z was totalled it took me 3 years to save up the cash to get another. The 370Z is out of this world. I'm glad you finally got one. You make us Z owners proud! That blue 370z is b-e-a-utiful. Wish that color was availible when I bought mine.

Again congrats.... We should do a cart day soon.

Haha..I don't think my fiancee would like that. Plus she's hotter than all three of those girls combined.
