you have very good points as well. thanks for the reply.
yeah, my wife and i were talking about it and i think we may just have to get one as a 3rd vehicle....pretty much for that reason. we currently have a sentra and altima, and where i live i would have to get rid of one (can only fit 2 cars) of my own. so, i think i will have to wait 'till next year when i move if i want the Z...or just "deal" with it for a year.
thanks again! very good points.
