My then fiancee's car's engine had seen better days. This was one week before we were married. I didn't want her stranded if it broke down, so I told her to take the Z, and I would drive her car. She said "What if I have an accident?" I told her it was insured. Sure enough - she did have an accident. She ran over an open manhole cover, the car was spun to the left, and she was center punched on the right side. The car then spun around again and over a curb and into a building. The doctor asked her what kind of car she was driving. When she told him, he said it saved her life because the lower center of gravity kept the car from flipping but instead it spun.

That is why I said my first Z gave it's life for my wife's. This happened over three decades ago. This is why we have a fond spot in our hearts for Zs. This is why even though we are retired and well into our 70s we bought a new Z.
