2006 350Z Grand Touring.........





I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.

Cool Brian,
Looks like a fun ride. Cowbell teaching you how to handle it yet? I think I read somewhere he got something similar. Enjoy! JDW

I have a soft spot for z-cars:


1978 Datsun 280z.  Near-showroom condition when I sold it.  I liked the car, but keeping the body in decent shape in the middle of the "Rust Belt" was too expensive.  Fun car to drive, though.
This was the only car I ever had where someone left a note on it saying how cool it was.  Cannot recall what year I owned it, maybe 1990?  Might have had it for a year or so.

Z's definately have a "cool factor" about them.  Especially the older 240, 260, and 280s.  Nowadays I'd take a 240z with an RB26DETT engine swap over any muscle car you could offer me  :cooldude:

Not quite a Z car, but can I play?

(Pardon the PVC, these are the most recent pics I've got, and I took them to prove to a co-worker than I didn't need a pickup truck afterall...)

I knew you got some kind of sport car Noah, I just couldn't remember which one. Rx's and Z's both are cool rides that I am sure both of you will enjoy. Have fun , but be careful Brian's brothers in Blue :police: will be looking for you both! LOL!! :2funny:

Chris is right, that 280 was a FUN car except for the rusting.   I drove it a few but I have to say that my '99 Miata doesn't rust and it's a vastly underrated  sportscar with a following that is just like Valk owners.  Miata owners also do their own work. I had a blast following 98T and Mad6gun through the Snake, the Miata is light and handles tight!   I'm going to do a few things to it like Intake and exhaust mods.
