That is where i test and beat the Z/28, but I know that car well. Plus if i hurt that car, she won't care..

I knew the 350Z well too, but the 370Z, I need to put some miles on first...

If I hurt her " baby", i am in trouble, but i won't walk on eggshells.. I am taking the 370Z out..

After warming it up, I plan on some higher RPM runs...It is an Auto, so i will let it shift for me, but I will have my foot to the floor..

I hear they run low 13's like my Z/28.. Super sweet..I love it.

I was reading about some "super cars", you know, the 200MPH kind..They run around 3.5 second 0 to 60 times...???? So they go 200MPH...When will i use that in America...

Seems like the 370Z and the 4.0 0 to 60 times are just fine for a car that cost
30K..

To me, it is more use able power for the street..

There was no place for me to go..... It doesn't appear that there's any damage, but it's too dark outside to make a proper assessment.

Wish me luck.
Is everything OK, Mr. Happy?

Now he's telling me that I parked it in the wrong spot. He's right, it normally sleeps in the third bay, but today I was using the middle bay for detailing.

I'll finish off the paint correction this weekend. I'm really looking forward to trying out my new Auto Finesse Passion nuba
That is extremely cute.

Also, is this going to affect those pictures? (Just trying to make you smile. )
Thanks Tracie

We'll see about the pictures, although I suspect yours would be better received.

That's a good question Mr. Onzedge. I will inspect closely tomorrow when the sun is out.

After a nice drive I decided I needed some detail therapy. I foamed the car to strip the old LSP off, clayed, and ObliTARated, just getting it ready to correct the paint.

I don't ever want to see you germinating in the yard. I have already put my drunken ninja raccoons on high alert.
