Nissan 370Z Forum  

Why did you choose your forum name?

I don't want to say, because I might end up on somebody's 'watch list'.

I made mine because of a lot of different reasons. Being a fan of Kawasaki is the main one though.

Love to golf and initials are BMW. I have had it as long as I have needed a user name. Which for me is a LONG time.

Everyone thinks it is the car. I do luv bimmers but I am not brand biased for my autos. What ever fits the need and itch the best is what I go with.

I use to have a Cobra mustang, then i bought a Mini Cooper S. When I installed stripes on my hood, my friend made a comment like, "look it's your Mini Cobra"

Yes, for now, but I've been trying to sell it. Although I took her for a ride last night and I'm having second thoughts. LOL :-) This car is so fun and easy to drive fast, it is really connected to the road, I'd almost venture to say (I'll prob get booed for this) that on a really tight short course the 370Z would have a hard time keeping up. Even though the Mini is Turbo, it makes a lot of power in the lower rpm range, for a 4cyl it has a lot of torque. It's 700lbs lighter then the Z, I'm sure that has a lot to do with how it handles the tight right handers and S-bends ;-)

Supercharged up through '06, then turbo for '07 onwards.

BTW he's not lying about the MINI in the tight stuff, so no boos from me.
