looked at her this am.

just now they opened up the sprinkler system at the office for the season to remove all the calcium and crap so now i can safely bring my G and Z without having to worry about water stains from their initial test run. they run the sprinklers early am so no issue getting the car wet either.

Backed her out of the garage so my wife could drive her to work. Ordered a set of Swift Spec-R springs.

ive never had the situation where i'd lend my wife my cars so never understood how it would feel. so do you folks feel that you both own the cars?

all my cars only have my name on the title...and my wife never asks to borrow them. even the dd we bought for the wife has my name on it. i rarely drive it other than to move it out of the way when i pull out my cars from the garage.

Yep, the Z's are both, both of ours (despite the fact that my plate on the Z32TT says AZ4HIM). That plate is left over from a time when she had a 2+2 that was pretty modded with the plate AZ4HER. She is almost as much an enthusiast as I am and supports the cars and the mods.

She doesn't drive the TT much now at all because I put a little bit bigger wing on it and she has a difficult time seeing out of the back window...she's short. She is an exceptional driver and has tracked my TT. The vert was a purchase/decision we made together from the beginning. She works as hard as I do (if not, harder) and the cars are a one of the passions that we share.

We had 4 Zs unitl about two months ago but sold the Z32 2+2 and a Z31 that my daughter had wrecked. Now we have 2 Zs and and XTerra. I drove all three of them to work this week.

That works for us but I have plenty of friends that have a situation similar to yours and it works for them.

Drove across the border (Upstate NY) to pick up my Fast Intentions Exhaust. I use this shipping place to send a lot of my purchases too, save a lot of money instead of having it chipped to Canada.

Nice 45 minute drive...making sure I have my clear bra on before my next long drive..

Took some pics,

JUst got re-elected 2nd assistant fire chief. I lost it for a year so I didn't have my Z when asst before. Trying to decide if I want to bling my Z with head and tail light strobes. Have a dash LED red light and might just add a second one and mount it on the little air deflector window in the back. Don't think I'll mount a siren or fire radio. Anybody else that is a chief ?

Took her to work and everyone called me out for how dirty it was. So I took her home and hand washed her.

Went back to stock exhaust so my car can pass the inspection. It sounds so quiet its ridiculous...I miss my ARK exhaust already.
