This email was sent to me on 7.29.10 (same day my dad was
admitted to the hospital) from Nissan USA to let you guys know about the ZCON 2010. I am very sorry to not post this on time
. I hope you guys had a great time at the convention and feel free to post your pictures in this thread (or in our dedicated
ZCON 2010 section).
Thanks

It should be a great event for everyone involved as we celebrate this milestone anniversary for our most beloved car.
