So I've been driving my civic for about a year now and it has been really good to me, but i wanted a change. I was planning on buying a 2002 civic Sir to replace my current Si, but ended up going a completely different route when I saw this....

Shitty picks but they will do for now.

It's a 1990 300zx, local car with only 2 owners before me, it a 2+2 with 162,000kms on it, Automatic, leather seats and power everything. All and all its in mint condition and I love driving this compared to my civic (I really can't compare it to much other cars I've owned as I've owned 5 civics before this car)

yeah, its in pretty good shape in and out, and i think I'm just going to get a good set of winters and drive it, i really don't want to park it for the winter.

So after some thought i decided to buy some winters and drive it through the winter.
I did some tire shopping locally and as quated $850 at costco and $1200 at kal-tire, so i went the online route and ended up buying some blizzaks from tire rack for $530 shipped. Hopefully they will do the job for the winter.

My next purchase will be H.I.D's.
