Do you hate your wife? Why would you ask her to drive an S13 as her first car? My wife drives a paid-for, safe and reliable car. You want to know what to get her? Get her something that ticks all those same boxes in a package you can buy outright - fuck brand loyalty or your desire to always own a Z. No car is worth being in debt for.

He's called Dave Ramsey, look him up and do yourself and your wife a favor.

RELIABLEEEEEE, I have a g35 and a 240, trust me even though i hate the payment and i hate the gas milege. every time i watch one of my friends 25 year old economy sports car go down, I thank my lucky stars that I picked reliable with a warrenty. Yea i pay a couple hundred a month, but i'm never stranded, always starts up so i can go to work, no downtime whatsover, fucking comfortable. The cost of your payment vs. reliability maintainence, threat of being stranded, drift tax part prices, and the inconvience of downtime, is a no brainer. Im not going to suggest a car for you as everyone has a preference and i don't wanna debate with anyone, but just google reliable cars for under 20,000. with your 3,000 down the somewhere in the neighborhood of $300 a month, which is very affordable. Trust me you can't put a price on peace of mind.

S13 bro . seriously, the kids can ride in the back.

Make sure you get the diff welded, slap an "Im killing it" decal on the windshield and your good to go.

Remove the carpet and stereo , your wife will love it. And exhaust fumes even better.

cheap and reliable equates to a Toyota Corolla. The insurance will be cheap as well. Enough with the banter though, you should know that the corolla is like a mini tank and when you need parts, they're abundant and cheap; new or at the yard.

You know what, scrap the S13. Don't even buy her a G35 as her first car. Heck she didn't need a car so far, just get a her a monthly bus pass. No insurance, no car payments, no worrying about rising gas prices, heck you don't even have to worry about parking! Plus you get free AC, feel like a big shot cause you got someone driving you around, oh best of all maintenance free!

Go get her a RELIABLE PRACTICAL DAILY that is good on gas and easy/cheap to fix like a camry, corolla, accord, maxima, you know something along those lines? If its her FIRST car, she is going to fuk that NEW G35 up since she will be learning on it. I'm sure you don't want to see curb marks, busted cracked and scraped bumpers and the list goes on. Don't even waste your time on a stupid high mileage CHEAP USED G35, you'll still be stuck with the maintenance costs to get it where you want to be. After she learns how to drive, go trade one of those cars in if she still wants whatever car, at least camry/corolla, accord/civics have high re-sale value. GROW SOME NUTS or LET THEM DROP if you still have them and do the right ADULT decision.

Trade S13 for a civic(civic ppl always looking for a way out of the fwd game) cheap daily, great on gas, and if anything were to break it be pretty cheap.

Have her just keep driving the Ford Focus while you driving your S13. See how often you have to ask the wife for a ride.

I use to own two used cars. One car dies, the other drives and vice versa. However, there are points in months where I do not even have time to fix the cars and ended up asking for rides. So I ditched one of them and bought a brand new Z with 5 year warranty and maintenance. When car is down, dealership is nice enough to loan me an Altima.

Im confused, you have a daily focus and bought her an s13 and are considering a g35? Youre talking about wrecking the g if you buy it and she drives it, why would she drive the g when she has an s13 and a focus?

LOL at all of these comments in here. Why would you want your gf/wife driving a shitbox s13 anyways? You'll have little 18 year olds drooling left and right "OMG I just saw a chick driving an s13 OMGGGGGGG"

I can't believe this is the extent that threads these days have come to. You're nearly 30 years old, you shouldn't be depending on the opinions of others to make decisions.

Arent u old enough to make your own decisions? But i do have an opinion lol. 240sx's are sooo simple: easy to work on (and maintain), kinda good mileage if you treat it as a regular car and dont get on it on every corner (im sure even better if its an auto), look alright (even better if s14 ;D). I dont know why people complain of 240's being unreliable, seriously, they've treated me very good, even my rb'ed s14 (only one problem when i first got it running and not a single problem after that) which i daily drive and plan to track it very soon (we'll see how it goes after that..). 240's are cheap and will be reliable if u take care of all the bugs (and i mean all includding all worn out bushings) when u buy it before u start dailying it and stay up with the maintenance, and we're talking an all stock 240. There's always a lot of shit to take care of when u buy a 240 but even after replacing everything on it it will come out a lot cheaper than doig payments. In my case, even if i had the extra cash, i wouldnt get a z, maybe a wrx or something else.

Do whatever you want. You'll be spending more money than you could ever take into account no matter which route you choose.

Ask her if she'll give up the butthole for a G35. If she says no you have your answer.
