Entering the Z world
 

Hello and Thanks! :tup:

I'm a long time car fanatic. First car was a 75 Capri. Made me appreciate European cars. Then went through some Mustangs, a Camaro and a few other forgettable ones. I especially want to forget an Olds Firenza :roflpuke2: with the worst manual transmission ever made. The first new car I bought was an 88 Acura Integra. Great car. Since then I have had many bimmers (first was a 318ti and I must have been one of the few to luv it) and several Lexus. Can not seem to keep anything for more than a couple of years now a days

Coolest car was a Pure Silver / Lapis Blue Mini S. After an endless wait, I was the sixth person in SC to get one. Such a crazy car for the money that was so unique at the time. Hauling kids around made me regretfully dump it.

When my dad sold me the Capri when I was 16, he got a 200sx. Not a Z, but still a fun car that made me envy Z drivers. I loved Zs but never dipped in. Father-in-law had 8 Zs starting with a silver 260 and ending with a red 350 vert. Still a Nissan man driving a Maxima. I guess it is more comfy for someone in their 70's. :D

Enough of the boring bio. Thanks to all who post here. I have learned so much in no time at all. Can not wait to pick up my silver 370 and join the Z family.

Welcome!! :hello:

I am assuming your location is Scottsdale, AZ??

Yep. Any recommendations on a dealership. I have been talking to a pretty cool kid over at Pinnacle. He is a big Z fanatic himself.

Edit: Updated profile, THX

Welcome to the forum! Looks like you're a golf fanatic!

I was, now I am only a semi-fanatic at best. Was nuts about it when I lived in the Carolinas and now that I am in Phx, lots of other things moved up the list.

Two of my favorites now are jeeping and skiing:

Can't wait to start modding the Z. The JK has been a blast to work on.

Man, I have always wanted to snowboard! Lucky you! All I do is cruise the green once or twice a month and hit a high 90 or 100 at BEST. I usually nail a 110+. :shakeshead: Anyway, have fun with the Z brother.

I wish I could board as well. Done it a few times and figured I am too old to switch from skis. Just way to much work for me where I can cruise all day on skis.

The boards are my sons.

Thanks - I am psyched about the Z and appreciate all the help.

Congrats and welcome!!!

congrats.. you still keeping the jeep?

Kind of. Oldest son turns 16 in April and he will drive it for two years, then his younger brother will drive for two years. Then I get it again. :tup:

Jeeps are better with age and wear!

hopefully they have some fun with it ;)
