Totally agree with you. I wouldn't sell it, my old man bought it brand new, we'd lose a lot of money out of it, and I wouldn't mind driving it either.

Dad is smarter than that. If Dad knew how much u loved the 8 and the sacrifice u were about to make, he would have stopped u, sold the Z, got more than what u would have with the shitty resale value of the 8, and gone ahead and taken care of those "school funds" for you w/ the $. All the while letting you hold on to the beloved 8 you were so attached to and likely having a lil $ left over.

Dont be afraid to tell the 8 fanbois u wanted the Z! LOL. Its a cool car, enjoy!!
haha, I'm no kid. I'm 25 working a full time job and full time student from August to May, I don't look to my parents for money anymore. sorry.

I hope I don't get any oil leaks! and I still wish I had my 8. But I'll buy another one soon in the future.

Cruise with the Z for a lil while, get the bills down, then buy another 8 and use the Z as your DD. Only thing you have to pay for is the insurance on the Z so its a win win

I'm not a fanboi but I never liked the looks of the 350Z... I rather take a WRX over a 350Z any day.

just drive it till you can get another 8, then give it back to your dad.

Free car is free car.

Heck myt first car was a free car, 1990 plymouth acclaim and I was super happy to get it.

haha thanks guys, I don't think I'd sell it. It's a pretty enjoyable car. If things keep up with my job, I should be able to fund another rx8 by winter time :D Most likely an 04 or an 05, but it would nice just to have on again
