I've wanted a Z for long time now and I finally might be able to afford it. The thing is I'm not sure if I should wait or get one as soon as I can. I've been driving for almost a year now and I haven't driven a car as powerful as the Z, or any car that's rear wheel drive.
I also want to learn manual so I can get a manual Z, but I don't have a car to practice on. Would the Z be a good car to learn stick shift on?
If I do get one I plan on getting a 2003-2006 Z I'm the $7,000-$11,000 range.
Sorry for the very beginner questions, but I thought the best place to ask would be here haha. Thanks in advance.

 

Manual is not hard to learn, however, you're at risk of burning your clutch if you overuse it or don't know how to drive it. As for buying one, I would shop around, you may find yourself saving thousands or paying an extra thousand just by waiting vs. buying now.

 

My suggestion is to wait. The Z is not the best car for someone with only a year of driving experience. Staying within the Nissan line, I'd suggest a used Sentra Se-R Spec V, or even a 240SX as better cars that have manual trannys to learn with.

 

Don't do it
