hey all,
I am wondering if i can get a little input from some nsx owners out there, preferably those who own more than one sports car and even better yet those who've owned a 90-96 nissan 300zx.
My predicament is this.... Currently i own a 90 300zx non-turbo and a 97 vw jetta glx. I am at the point where i have to move the jetta and am leaning heavily toward a new mazda 6s 5-speed in the next month or two. I was planning on buying an early model nsx this spring until i really came to grips with having to replace my vw... There isn't a way around this simply because i use that car for work and need something very reliable and such that can carry sizable items in its trunk. Anyways, so now since i am financially being put out to get as low a car payment as i can on the new mazda i'm seeing my dreams of nsx ownership slide further down the road (maybe a year or two). Now the wheels in my head are turning as to how i might be able to keep my Z (cuz i just love it so much for cruising and reliability (and the fact i changed the exterior to jdm and that cost some bucks and makes me unique in the area) and my four door and get an nsx. But the more i look at the financials the more i am thinking it's either a wait a year for the nsx or possibly sell the Z to get an nsx. Keep in mind the Z is my very first true sports car and its just in awesome shape for what you are seeing in the area i live in. So i'm hoping some out there can give me some input on if buying an nsx will satisfy my driving need and totally replace what i feel with the Z. Is it maybe worth waiting one more year to save up for the nsx? I feel like if i sold my Z i'll regret it and want to buy another one in the future... the the question there is finding one like i have now. I'm torn in this decision and on top of that i'm contemplating the costs of ownerships on both cars individually, i'm guessing the nsx is a tad more expensive to maintain the the Z from what i've seen??? am i wrong there? enlighten me!
Ok guys, there's my sob story, give me some of your insights.... I can take it like a man :-D
