Most of it missed us too. Radar looked like we were going to get smoked by storms this morning.

Well, needless to say, I didn't get by to look at the Magma Red Nismo.... :shakes head::shakes head:

Damn delivery company didn't show up until 2:15 pm and by the time I got done with testing and set up, it was 3:30 and I had a splitting headache...:ugh2:


I got to the hotel and did some reading on the car, it has a salvage title and I'm not sure my insurance company will cover the car. Now of course, the people selling the car are more than happy to sell insurance for the car.... :icon23::icon23:

I'll pass...

old guy 08-21-2018 08:54 PM

Bummer, the magma nismo is special IMHO, so many in white, black & silver.
Good luck in the future.

Red flag with that title. Too many headaches to deal with.

More than likely. With how projects go at my place, I am sure you could build one from scratch and have it installed before me. :icon17:

That's kind of what I thought. I'm leaning towards a magma red, midnight blue pearl or black cherry... Those are my top 3. What I'm seeing so far is that there are mostly automatics on the market, not too many from the church of three pedals.... especially in those colors. :confused:


I might just get a white pearl or mag black and wrap it in MARPAT digital camo..... :stirthepot:

The black cherry & midnight blue were my top picks when I was shopping for my Z also, they were very rare, and when I pulled up in the dealer lot and saw the magma gleaming in the sun, that was it SOLD!

As for the rebuild title....... run, don’t walk away

I tried to find a midnight blue when shopping for the Z but there were none within 1500 miles of here. Bought a magma red without ever seeing it in person. :eek: Good thing I ended up liking it. :tup: :driving:

I had looked at two grey ones ( not silver ) in a row & they just didn’t pop, and then I rolled in and that magma was sitting there in the sun.... game over!
Now I’ll admit in the barn the color is ok, but clean & in the sunshine, it’s gorgeous

yup, in the shade it is just kinda dull red looking. The copper and metallic really makes the color work, when the sun is out lol.

Did you read the news story of the Snap on tool guy not applying the money to people's accounts? :eek:

BoneZ 08-22-2018 05:42 AM

Dern... I just noticed I'm nearly at half a million on my RepZ. Thank you all my friends. This inspires me to deliver some Wednesday morning RepZ to y'all.
