I look in with envy

Super Tanooki · 07-26-2010, 02:00 AM

Hi all, I'll try to keep this brief.

I'm a new member, but been reading for a while (a daily checker for me - great forum). My name's Mike. I'm 27, from London but just moved to Vegas this April.

Had to sell my gorgeous Civic in London before moving over, now I drive my fiance's Scion TC. I was looking for a car to get in America. Checked out the obvious muscle cars and at first had my heart set on a Camaro... until I fell head over heels in love with the 370Z. Now I'm obsessed. I MUST have one.

I've got lots going on right now, settling into a new American life, saving for the wedding (it's in Philippines in January so a lot of planning) and settling into work. The MOMENT the wedding passes I'll be hunting to order my Z.

But I don't have it yet.

So, it is with great envy, and a sense of inadequacy among all you current 370 owners, that I introduce myself as a keen new member. Thought I should drop in and say hi now, and hoping you guys will help with my purchasing process in around six months time.

Can't come soon enough.

Thanks!!

Me too! It's months away and I'm already talking/reading/obsessing about it literally daily. Excited is not the word...

Awesome, thanks Boricua. Look forward to it. If/when you guys have a local meet, let me know. It'd be cool to come see all the cars (plus it might help with my color decision).

Ah, yeah my fiance is Filipino, I'm not. I'm British mixed (English/Jamaican). But I DO love Longaniza and Dinuguan though.

By my math, 6 months Z time = 2 days. It's like dog years. They go fast (like the Z).

Marital years...that's another story.
