Thanks guys!!! They were all my daily drivers. The Z I bought completely stock, and then modded it. The vette was already modded when I bought it. I enjoyed the Z a lot. It was definitely a head turner, and it was perfect inside and out. I modded it to the point where I didn't really enjoy driving it anymore. I won many trophies in car shows, and sound competitions with its custom Orion set up. It was a beautiful car, but too stressful to drive around in. I didn't want to leave it anywhere, and I was paranoid of all the CF parts being left in the sun (even though the entire car was clear coated with a gallon of clear coat). I decided to get rid of it for something faster, which was the vette. I didn't keep the vette long. Again, it was a car that I didn't enjoy driving. It had all the power I could want, but I got used to that power quickly, and realized it wasn't enjoyable to drive either. I started having to travel long distances for work, and in traffic the very stiff clutch drove me crazy. The Z had 4.08 gears and it was also a hassle to drive in traffic. I really enjoy the G37s now. It is very comfortable, and it has all the luxuries the z and the vette were missing.
I do plan on getting a GTR in the future, or maybe even a SRT10 viper. I still enjoy modded sports cars, but I have to wait until I get settled in with work closer to home before I make a purchase like that.

That Z is (was) badazzzz! But I agree it was probably a tough daily driver. I looked a new 370Z when I was shopping and decided it was to stiff and loud to enjoy as my daily driver and for longer trips with the wife. The G37S fit the bill perfectly.

Thats the bad part about cars depreciating 
Every teen with a minimum wage job can start affording the cars we once paid GOOD money for. I see you like silver cars! Never owned a silver car yet, but I bet they are a heck of a lot easier to keep clean then most other colors!

It shows every line in the car and the not showing dirt part is a bonus as well.

They really grew on me lately! Its funny how we have the exact same tastes in cars lol. I like to experiment with colors though, red was really my favorite, but the last two sports cars I've owned are black, I guess it was just good deal vs. preferred color at the time for me!
Anyways I liked the Z a lot more than the vette 
tastefully modded imo
