Great avatar.

Rep to you sir!

Thank you for the compliments guys, I really appreciate them. People ask me about the canards all the time and they are full CF. I can notice the difference at freeway speeds, the front end feels more planted with them.

Props to Christian for the photo, it's one of my favorites of my car.

Your right though, if either of our problems were to have arisen after a flat tire on the highway especially in bad weather conditions it would have been a lot worse
First time for me with a lug/lock. Yes could have been much worse and showed the true character of my dealer. Great people!

Christian370z, if it's too good to be true then it must be false.
Hey -- Mr. ZForce -- Are you bringing both 370's this Saturday? You should. We can take some group photos.

Drove the Z through some Napa twisties on my way to a winery for work! I'm totally not use to the feel of the car yet. The clutch, steering, size and power delivery are very different from my Evo and my old miata. Geez, I still haven't found a solid seating position and mirror settings! Maybe another month and I'll be ready to push it a little harder.

I was in the drive-thru tonight and heard a kid tell his friend "hey is that an R8?" while pointing at my car.
