Had a 1987 300ZX in 1988, drove it until it had 100K miles on it, gave it my teenage son and he drove it until it had about 145K miles on it.
Been driving a 2006 Mercedes SLK350 Hardtop convertible for 13 years, and thinking of getting a new car if I can find something I like better. Been looking at Porsche 718 Boxster, BMW Z4 M40i, and C8, but all are very expensive. One son owns a 911 Porsche and wants me to buy a Porsche, another son works for GM working on the electric Hummer and wants me to buy the C8.
I loved my 1987 300ZX, my 2002 Maxima GLE,my 2007 and 2008 Altimas, my 2016 Frontier SL, and a couple other Nissans. So, I am going to consider looking at the new Z as it has the things I want in a car (except being a convertible). We will see. Just glad the new Z won't have a CVT tranny. Good grief, I never liked those in the Altimas.
Anyway, this forum looks very informative, so Ill stick around and learn a lot from you all.
