went looking for another car/truck, not to replace the Z, but another to maybe have fun with or a bit more functional (LOL)... Got some nice comments from a dealer about the Z, it always draws comments

Monday, it was service day, got the oil change at the Nissan Dealership,
so glad that so many months ago, I purchase the Nissan Gold Service Plan, pretty much takes care of all routine maintenance, oil changes are free for 85 months along with other service items, air filters, etc.... This plan is no longer offer, maybe they lost money on it...

another Monday trip, this time it was to Discount Tire, seems the right rear driver tire had picked up a nail... and had developed a slow leak... no problem, since tires were bought at Discount Tire, along with that warrant stuff, all fixed and out the door...

Thou it is time to get some new tires to replace what I have now:
MICHELIN Pilot Super Sport
Front 265/35 19 ZR
Rear 305/30 19 ZR

is about 1700.00, good tires all around, for all weather, except below 40 ...
I think the only thing I would do, is maybe go to 295 in back...

Great tire choice, $1700 seems high though. Do they offer price matching?

I haven't check about price matching, I need to Tire Rack and see. But to tell the truth, the price really has not gone up, paid the about the same 3 years ago. They are great tires, if you compare them on Tire Rack, they are like the number 1 tire.

Need to but this on my list and start looking at, for it is time

Almost bought a RX-8 today, drove nice, but in the back of my mine, concerns about the rotary engine, kept surfacing. This RX-8 was 2nd gen, so reading the forums confirm my concern, a lot better than the 1st gen. I want something to play with along with the Z, RX-8 might offer more surprises than I want....

The sales guy, stated what a great looking car I had with the Z, always getting attention.

danegrey · 07-01-2016, 07:37 PM

The car search goes on, test drove an automatic 2003 350Z, ran pretty good, felt good, so I made an offer of 8K, considering the car had 128K and 2 accidents, but they would not bite, they counter with 9940, but that was too rich for me, needed tires, and a couple mirror fixes,

had leather/power seats .....

not bad but not the price I wanted to pay...

danegrey · 07-02-2016, 08:39 PM

forgot to add the salesperson was all over the Z....

danegrey · 07-04-2016, 12:34 PM

clean up the Z and made the old tires look new

also went out and checked out another 350z.. one owner from Calif...
looked clean inside going to look at on tuesday

also checked out a cr-z, giving that some thought too..

Happy 4th of July

Z always attracts attention. Always. And PSS FTW.

Guess what a day late and dollar short, knew it was a nice 350z, it was sold by the time I got there..... rats...

Sales person was real nice, we talked for sometime, she appreciated cars.
Liked the Z, with the carbon fiber items and wheels.... that is because she has owned a NSX for about 15 years and has BRZ as a daily driver....

just have to keep looking

danegrey · 07-06-2016, 07:22 PM

lost two of my nismo tire value covers,
so I found these on Amazon, not bad looking a little more CF

danegrey · 07-07-2016, 08:18 PM

well watching the TC class of World Challenge and taking pole and leading for a bit is a 370z.... never knew that there was 370z in that class (they are racing at Road America)

I cheated, went and looked at the results the 370Z won the race

There are 3 370Zs running in TC....

danegrey · 07-08-2016, 05:20 AM

re-checked the results this morning, and for TC race 7 and 8, the 370z, won both races that weekend..... heard a comment from one of the announcers, stated the Z engine noise was one of the better ones out there, comment about the power too...
