Default Hello from Texas
Hi everyone. I was visiting a friend recently who has an old 240Z in his backyard, rusting away. I sure do like those old Z's. I entertained the notion of taking it off his hands and trying to resurrect it, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized it would be too much of a challenge for me with my limited skills and shop space.

The thought of that car kept rattling around in my brain though, so when I came across a 2010 Z Roadster at a car lot a couple of weeks ago, I quickly accepted the offer of a test drive. It was love at first acceleration. It doesn't need nearly as much work as the old 240 Z, so I brought it home. I'm really liking it and look forward to visiting with you nice folks here on the forum.

Welcome Rodnich. My wife and I just joined this site a few days ago as well. We just purchased our 2013 Z a few days ago, just South of Fort Worth.
