Cool

When I had my rx7 I was livin in los sures in brooklyn.
I had 3.5 inches of clearance.
I had to drive my Mazda RX-7, 25 mph or less. (U can only do 25mph, 30mph or 35mph in the city streets of nyc anyway but 25mph is max for low slung cars)
Potholes would scrape my skirts up n I had my car gettin bonded n painted annually to keep it looking good. The roads would wear on my suspension fairly quick for a car.
N u need to garage a car like that in nyc. Leavin it out will make it an instant target.
The Z will be a sucky car to hav in the city.
I used my rx 7 as a highway car n to hit up the races fountain ave or the cross bronx at night or do the races in hempstead.
U gotta be very selective where u take your car and open it up.
Public transportation will still be your bff. Lol. New york streets are so bad u really need a 4x4.
Lol. I'm serious. Make sure ur Z is a weekend car and hav a mental map of the potholes
