Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I look forward to meeting you.
The front range canyons are truly Z territory. Before these last couple snows blew in I had my 240 up along the Peak to Peak Highway for some great curve carving. What a fun car!
Do you folks ever go out for spring/summer/fall cruises together?
Stay warm,
Aiden

Hey all,
A quick hello from Boulder, CO!
Through a series of horse trades that involved motorcycles and Mustangs, I'm now in possession of a slick new '71 240Z. Most systems in the car have been freshened up and it's really got a great presentation inside and out. Drives like a myotis-from-Hades.
I agreed to this particular trade because I thought the Z would bring a higher resale than an old Mustang GT (the Z-owner called this his $12,000 $6000 car).
I'd never given much thought to a Z before: mostly a pre-'65 Volvo guy. But something happened to me when I slipped behind the wheel of this car: something subtle yet exhilarating, like your second or third kiss on a first date. Somewhere between the test drive and pulling it into the garage four hours later, I fell hard for this car.
Now comes the learning curve, the "getting to know each other" stage of the relationship. This forum looks like a great place for advice and experience. I look forward to learning from all you Z-guys and Z-gals.
Cheers,
Aiden
