Am I too old for a Z

viiv · 02-23-2021, 07:41 PM

The last time I didn't feel old was when I was 17.

Edit: LOL. . . 11 year old topic. Now I'M feeling old. At 18 I was partying, chasing girls, doing uni applications and determining what acne products are the best.

At 18. I was being trained to shooting people in strange far away lands.

And enough money to do what he did.

Despite all the ailments that come with living an active life and my body reminding me my physical age, the hopes dreams of that 12 year old is still alive and well in my head. I still get butterflies when I play softball or go to grid. I not able to sleep before opening day of hunting season or any other exciting adventure or happenings. I won't worth a crap once Seb tells me my car is ready to pickup and might even shed a tear when I do. Yes on one hand I want time to slow down on the other I can't wait for tomorrow!

Different times, truly puts things into perspective for me.

I like to use the rule of 37 for this kind of thing. If you are 37 years old or older, you must trade in the Z for a G37.

Just kidding, drive what you want to.

Blizzak · 02-24-2021, 05:58 PM

Never too old! Was cruising the other day & seen a clean white Z.... guess who was behind the wheel? Guy was at least 60-70! I just had to compliment his ride

Small reasons why I love the Z community. Very diverse in the people who like these Japanese sports cars

Eh. I got both. A G37x on a stick would have been GREAT!

If you want a Z, buy it. Enjoy life, and enjoy driving it.
