Thanks guys,
My first Z car was an 08, 350Z Touring black cope, auto, no mods. I loved the car and had many wonderful driving experiences. On one such occasion, in mid July, my wife and I drove the car from PA to Virginia loaded; it on the Amtrak car train and got off in Florida heading for Key West.
Driving with my wife, luggage in the back; car weighted down, the air conditioner on full blast; It was very hot and humid with the temperatures in the 90 to 100 degree range . I was easily hitting 100 MPH a few times on a straight-a way in an area known as Alligator Alley, it never even occurred to me that there was the slightest hint of any heating issues with the car.We arrived at Key West just fine and returned home with no heating issue.
Along the way I met my friend Tony and drag raced him with his G35 Infinity sedan, manual transmission and ran him to the ground.
None the less I was impressed with his cars gutsy performance.
I was impressed on how rock solid this car handled and preformed at 100 MPH. Bye-the-way I had my radar detector on all the time on the road.
Regrettably,
I had to trade the car in for an Infiniti G35 xS due to fear of not being able to use the car in the snow when going to work in the MT Pocono area.That being said, I swore I would at the first opportunity get back behind the wheel of a Z car again!!
I’m a happy camper now with my 370Z, haven’t looked back since!
Sorry for the long story,
Alex
Here’s my baby, love this car, it’s a keeper!
