Can you convert that for a lowly non-metric person?

LOL. But you're from the land that thinks anything over $2.00 gallon for gas is expensive.

I lost on the sale, my dad however won a free tank of gas. It's far from empty, in fact I don't think I took it off of the full line.

Oh please! I would crawl naked on broken glass for $2 a gallon gas! LOL

Thankfully it has gone down a good bit in the last week. We are at roughly $3.89 for 91

Sold mine too...

Christian - sorry to hear that you sold your G. I remember when I sold my 04 G Sedan a couple years ago - I was excited when I closed the deal, but was sad to see the car go. Same thing just happened tonight with my Z - I finally got off my **** and priced it competitively, and the first person who came by to look at it slapped down a deposit on it. The car leaves my hands on Monday pending receipt of the almighty certified cheque from said buyer.

The Z has been such a blast to drive, even if I only drove it in the summers. The bottom line is that a 2 seater didn't make much sense for me given that I have a 16 month old son - airbags and toddlers in the front seat don't mix!

We're now down to our Pathfinder and an old RAV4 (my daily driver). Thinking we might sell the RAV4 as well and then pick up a sports sedan or a coupe with a backseat so that the little guy can come along with me on rides. Then I can have my cake and eat it too!!!

Congrats on the TSX purchase. It's a nice looking car too.

Cheers.

^^ I thought about looking for a used coupe but they're still too expensive here, and I'm happy to spend a little bit less on gas. To be honest, an older G sedan would have been "just a car" after selling my second gen sedan.

Yes, but in this case it is just another car with no car loan. Now I'm gonna start saving to buy a 2009 G37x coupe when it's a couple years old.

Holy crap!! you bought a GSX-R 600?? Nice knowing ya.
