I know!!!!!!! A couple of years ago we got hit with one of these big thunderstorms and my Altima I had at the time was outside, now it was not golf ball size hail, maybe the size of like a green bean, but I did find a few very very small dents on the car, so small I would have to point them out to someone to see them but I knew thet where there LOL. Anyway the Z is all clean and back in the safety of my garage

My Z was destroyed by hail before I even got my first oil change done. During the storm a huge branch broke off the tree across the street and smashed the trunk & spoiler too. It was terrible. Body shop pulled all those little dents out perfectly though. I have lived in my area all my 31 years and have barely ever seen hail. Since I got my Z in 09 it has hailed numerous times. Just last week I had quarter size hail fall for about a minute.

yah, sorry to hear about the hail. during PDR training ive worked on some hailed cars and it was insane how many dings i had to push out just to finish one car... it was like popping a football field sized bubble wrap one bubble at a time. (ok maybe not that insane ). no z action for me today... |

Yeah PDR seems tedious. My car was completely dimpled and you couldnt even tell when I got it back. Impressive.

I'm sitting at 1197 miles!!!! That's what it was when I parked her yesterday. Which means... today, when I get home, and take her out for a car show, I should be able to feel what it feels like to rev up beyond 4k
ok ok I admit I did go beyond 4k a few times within those 1197 miles, but never anything close to red line. I don't even KNOW what my Z feels like in its full power band.
