Zrush

Actually this car is in the next city down from where I live. There is a event at Z Fever tomorrow in Tampa Florida. If the guy brings the car over I'll check it out and report back.

I also didn't know he was a scientist. Are we all talking about the comedian with the dry, mono-tone humor? I believe he hails from the Boston area.

Driving is a Privilege, not a Right. You don't even need to be speeding or even on the road to cause mayhem. Here in Florida you read in the paper every day where some old duck has mistakenly hit the gas instead of the brake and gone right through a business store front. Such a shame IMO. This is when you really need to give up your license and ride the bus.

I kinda though VW at first, but wasn't sure. Now that you remind me, it does flow better...Volkswagon Scirocco. Thanks for clearing up my error.

NASCAR is about as much fun to watch as Tennis. Unfortunatley the only exciting part of NASCAR is the wrecks. I know that's terrible thing to say, but it's true. Roundy Round racing is a big bore IMO.

Don't forget about the Scirocco. I think that car was made by Honda. Could have come off one of those cars, as I remember just about all of them had louvers. Just my guess.

That's a very beautiful car. I agree, what person wouldn't be impressed if you pulled up in that Z for a sales call. I would be more apt to buy from someone driving that nice Z that a guy in an over priced caddy or something. Here's the trick........get the prospective customer outside to see your nice car, talk about the Z for awhile, then start your sales pitch on what ever your selling, and boom.......the deal is closed! Very nice car. I hope whoever buys it takes as good care of it as you have.

v12horse I have always heard that the Z was the poor mans corvette. At least thats what all my old school Chevy friends say. I've forgotten about the opel, but I can see where that phrase would fit with that car. Don't see to many of those around anymore.

Sorry, I thought someone was referencing that "other Z car" meaning the Chevy Camaro Z28.

Camaro Z28.

Thanks Optimaxtech. 4 years of blood, sweat, tears and money are in that car. Next time I'd buy one thats already done. I say that, but then I probably would tear it apart and do it my way and be back in the poor house again.

I agree, I would like a ZX for a daily driver. Early ZX that is. We won't even open a discussion on the 300ZX.

I've always thought of the ZX as fat and bloated. They put luxury in those cars, what with power this and power that. To me that was the death of the true Z car. I don't want no power crap in my sports car unless it's under the hood.

Boy that ZX is nice. But the interior is way to much red (I know I have a red car). I like the black and gold anniversary editions much better. The price seems very fair and reasonable. If I had more garage space and more cash I might be tempted. You can never have to many nice Z cars.

Most import (Japanese) cars of the early 70's were "shoe boxes". The Z design blew the market away with its stylish body lines. I remember it was called the poor mans Corvette.

BMW stands for Big Money Wasted, IMOLOL

TV today is awful, mind numbing junk. The reality shows are even worse. I enjoy a few shows on TLC or Discovery. But regular TV is for the 25 and under group. I guess I just don't get it anymore. I'm getting old and cranky.:mad:

Turns too!

I've always had just the opposite feeling in my Z. I feel like I'm going way over the speed limit (probably am). My Z is far from stock so it always sounds loud and fast.........which it is. I have no fear of any Vette, Camaro or anything else that wants to go up against me. Bring it on. If I don't take it, I will surely give it a run for it's money and I won't be far behind. Z Power :devious:

Amen to that on the Muscle Cars. I always thought that the early Mazda RX-7 was a 240Z wantabe.

Now that picture of the "Snow Couple" is freaking hilariousLOL

I like the car but I wish they wouldn't put such sharp angles mixed in with smooth lines. It does look kinda like a cross breed of a Farrari with a touch of Mustang thrown in. I know the word is thrown around today in the Dodge commercials, but IMO nothing really beats an old school 426 hemi built to the max.

God that is.........well........I don't really know. What a redneck.

Just about every rim manufacturer made some type of Centerline copy. You should be able to get center cap replacements from any shop that sells mags. :classic:
