In with the NEW - Out with the Old

My Sweet 2004 350 Z


Drove this to work Friday - Did not drive it home .... This now sits in my Garage . 2008 Altima 2.5 liter 4 cyld.
So Why did I do this ?
The Z was a fun car ( no it was a F'n blast to drive), It is hands down the best looking car I ever owned + it got decent gas mileage BUT......
I could not drive in the winter (rear wheel drive 289HP)
The Z needed High Test GAS.
The Z cost more for insurance.
With the Z I needed a seperate Winter Car .
Now I can get rid of the old 1993 Tauras wagon.
The Altima will get 2x the gas milage.
If needed it will seat 5 , The Z had no back seats at all.
I was worried about service issues with a preformace car as it got older.
So that's it - No regrets I have a very nice car with some lines similar to the Z.

Good call. The funny thing is that they look almost identical from the side.
