Hahahaha this is spot on!

LOL I miss having a turbo car with an external waste gate. The looks on peoples faces when it roars open.. especially when it's some dumb honda/mustang owner trying to be cool.

For me when I was living in southern california, in Irvine, where if it makes noise it's probably illegal.. I had to be very careful with my BOV and especially letting that waste gate open. There's always the right moments to enjoy it, though. Just be sane and logical about it and you'll still have a blast. Especially some spirited canyon runs. Love twisties :)

Sounds like you've talked youself out of it. If you have to be sold on something like this, maybe you shouldn't do it.

I could get into plenty of trouble have a lot of fun when the Z was stock. After boosting it I can have the same kind of fun I just get there much faster, and with more noise. :tup:

Plus exotic car owners/drivers don't suspect a thing until it's too late. :stirthepot:

In MA was tuff( Roads SUX) But was a blast :) Same as early, On and off ramps and fun when some tries to cut you off, Just a little gas an your gone, AHHAH

Part of me really wants to do it. Then the safe part of me worries about the 7AT and that I will hardly get to enjoy it after sending all that money.

It is great, and there's plenty of power at half throttle when under boost. I honestly don't floor it that much unless it's to catch up with traffic after merging from a standstill.

There are times for some fun, but then I have to reflect on it and try to be more responsible, keep my nerves cool, and ignore provokers. I picked up a daily a couple of days ago, so it's not too much of an issue. So the Z is not a DD anymore.

Here is a fun story for the day, just happened.
Was heading back to my office, needed over to the left lane to get onto major interstate (I10 by gessner for those in Houston). Truck was being a d1ck and not letting me over at all, kept speeding up if I sped up or slowed down. So I pushed the throttle a little and mister jacked up truck loses and I get over....glad to see his face get all upset in my side mirror.

This is why we all need boost!!!!!!!!!:driving:

If you are OCD like me, you wont hammer every time...

Its hard not to hit 3 digits in this car before you notice anything... This car is so well built that it masks speed quite well.

Statute of Limitations: I once upon a time in a galaxy far far away called mexico, top ended the **** out of this car (on a closed private track of course) before FI, then after a hand full of times... the difference is staggering. This car wants to keep fking going!! (and it handles nicely up there too)

I enjoy the power, but I like when i can take it easy and just enjoy what its capable of and just chill.... Im trying to think of engine health 20k, 30k, 40k ahead. I get into it on occasions though

Rule of thumb, dont treat your expensive *** baby like a shitty rental car. But occasionally let it breathe...
