I wish I had more "dealership" photo's when I picked up my Z...I was so happy I just grabbed the keys, shook hands with the sales guy and drove off lol.

So who is actually driving this car more?
Well, no one at the moment!, lol But it seems I am in the drivers seat more often than not. My wife still drives it (she is a very good manual transmission driver) but gets annoyed at the louder exhaust and the attention it gets....

It's getting better! We paid off the Lincoln this month so now I have a little extra playdough...

It is a love hate relationship. I love the classy look the car gets in this colour but I can attest to the high maintenance of dark paint!

Not sure where you read I had Gen I intakes. I had Gen II's which had minimal gains (~8hp) but a nice throaty sound, then upgraded to the Gen III's just recently.

Thanks for all the comments guys! I am not done yet!
