I wouldn't go THAT FAR.... but Seattles defense definitely held its own. Offense wins flashiness/awards/highlights, but defense wins championships.

Any of you guys going to the dinner?

rlhotka 02-18-2014 07:37 AM

Next time you guys get together I have to go, been looking foward to meeting everyone but something always comes up. Ill be gone the 25th-the 5th of march so if there is something going on soon I want to be there. I only got to see a few of you nice people one night last summer and didnt even know we had a club, just luckily was eating at Hunan restaurant and saw everyone parked by Sonic. Hope to meet everyone soon.

Yeah, that was awesome how we all met by chance that night. I'm glad you made it.

I'm looking for ideas and a place to get some people together soon. I just had shoulder surgery last Thursday, so I think something in March is a great idea. We need a big GTG to put some faces to names.

I may book a section of a restaurant off and just have it for an open house for everyone to flock to. Or we could reserve a theater and have a party there. We have all kinds of options.

BTW, I live in Apple Valley and some of us south of 494 usually meet up for short GTGs in the area. Just send me your name and number and I'll keep you posted.

ezred 02-24-2014 09:06 AM

Gtg...
 
Hey, glad to see activity on this thread I started...I have had a job change, with most weekends off - yeah! I'll be unable to meet anytime during the week, as my work hours are troublesome.

Thanks,

Saturday seems to be the best day so far. I'll start brainstorming and keeping you guys updated. I'd like to do something in the middle of March, so stay tuned.

It's funny how I'm itching to drive the Z and feel like it's close to that time, but I look around thinking it's never going to melt early enough.

Forecasts says mid march in the 40-50

Just traded my 2011 Z for a 2014 Touring MT with Sport and Nav for $37,739. Price included trucking it over 500 miles from Illinois to St. Cloud. The dealer even trucked it 90 miles each way from his place to my home in Deerwood (Brainerd area) and took the 2011 Z away. The new one is sitting in my garage with 4 miles on it. We did the paperwork at my kitchen table. It was like ordering a pizza. Sweet deal.

I gave it a try, but I couldn't even get my 2011 100 yards up my road to a sanded street. Had to tow it back in defeat to my garage with my GMC pickup. The dealer in St Cloud (Miller Auto) just said "no problem, we'll just deliver it ". Customer service+.

Second Nissan I've bought from them (wife's Murano). They responded aggressively to the "request for quote" that I sent via Nissan's website. The dealerships in Duluth and Coon Rapids did too, but Miller was all over them on the price. Interestingly, all I got from the Brainerd dealer (about 15 miles from my house and where I bought my first 370Z) was "come in and talk to a salesman". They did the same thing two years ago, which is why I bought the Murano in St Cloud. Some dealers just don't get the internet thing.

SmoothZ 03-03-2014 06:38 PM

Nice! That's a great story about customer service. Consider yourself an owner of a rare car. Hardly any Z's are being sold anymore. Kind of sad.

We are going for sure and prob with quite a few people in our group. It's an event so why not.

Just one more month and I have to drive my Z...hopefully no salty roads on my way back otherwise It's going to get a wash before I get home. :shakes head:

rlhotka 03-07-2014 03:10 PM

Got my oil cooler and still need to install it and the intake. Waiting for it to warm up so I can work on it in the garage.

Mai-z 03-07-2014 05:03 PM

Heated garage here !:) I'll be installing coils and front/rear camber arms throughout the next week or so.

Arrvaxx 03-07-2014 05:08 PM

Looks like the warmth is coming!

It's going to look really bad based on all the pot holes I've been running over.

Anybody have a a line on tire installers most likely to be able to demount my old tires and mount new ones without damage to the rims? I live in the Brainerd area but would drive to accomplish that goal.

mnz 03-09-2014 11:09 PM

took the z out..... felt so good! :)
