What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

CDepp · 05-27-2013, 09:29 PM

I think I brought back half the wildlife of the Blue Ridge Parkway with me to home. I spent this evening cleaning bugs off the front, and banged out the filters; clearing them of more bugs, twigs, raccoons, and leaves.

Finally getting tinted on Friday!

Drove it briefly yesterday after it sat for about 10days and the clutch felt a little soft. Probably just in my head since it shifted normally and it still sprung to the top like normal. Or maybe my legs bulked up with all the walking I did in Boston

I drove home from work and filled the tank. $90 CAD for 60 some odd liters.

At least I was able to squeeze 350 miles from the last tank.

How bad will my gas mileage be after the supercharger goes in? I'm almost afraid to ask.

It is directly proportionate to the amount of lead in your right foot

The Z was feeling very depressed today, likely because she thinks I'm abandoning her at the dealership tomorrow. So I left the office a bit early, and drove her through the touchless car wash I purchased last week just hours before it started raining. On the drive home, I could tell she was still unhappy, so I followed up with a full hand wash and detail when I got home. I washed her again, vacuumed all of the carpet, wiped down the interior, detailed the rims, treated the tires, wiped down all of the thresholds, and a two-step metal polish on the exhaust tips. She looks so much happier now

Yep, drive it like a prius and get better mileage than you did before. More efficient. Drive it like it should and maybe 15mpg if your lucky.

I guess that's true.

By this time on my previous car, I'd had two (maybe three?) San Diego trips under my belt, etc.

Nothing on this car. I guess that's what makes it so depressing.

However, I didn't buy it to be a garage queen, so I need to

or
