Ok here is the Cars & Coffee Plus Cruise Info:
Meet at 11:00 AM-12PM:
Starbucks
680 W. North Ave.
Elmhurst, IL 60126

This is intersection of North Ave. and Kingery Hw

we will cruise around the area after that. (Mostly highways) but it will make for a good video footage.

Hello friends. It is with great sadness I am announcing that I will be parting with my beloved Z soon. I hoped this moment would never come, but my wife is pregnant with our first and she's already having a hard time getting in and out of the car. And when the baby comes, obvious issues exist. I am hopeful to get back into the z in the years to come when my family situation changes.

Anyway, this is a feeler if anyone would be interested to trade their stockies (plus $2,500 cash) or sport rays for my exceptional-condition oem nismo wheels and tires with less than 2,000 miles on them. I am giving you guys first dibs, because I know these wheels are usually a hot item. Message me your offers, if interested.

A couple of you will remember me from our first meet and saw the wheels on my black non-nismo. There are a couple pictures of 'em from the first meet.

Congratulations to you and your wife :tup:. Though it is unfortante You Have to part with the z. That's a tough choice to make but the 2 seats will become problematic Like you said. Hopefully, you'll be back soon. Any idea of what's the next car?

Gl with sale/trade of wheels. I Would go for it but don't want to trade away my 40th colored wheels.:p

Thank you! Next car (for this family man) will most likely be a GTI. Although I might end up with a TDI. Diesels are really efficient and am thinking is the way to go for my situation right now. (diapers are expensive I hear:D). But i know that the seventh generation of golf is due so I'd feel bad if I were to get a 6 and a year later 7 comes out. So still many open questions...

Gti is a fine choice. Its high on my list to replace my DD next year. I didn't realize they are coming out soon with the next Gen, ill have to look into that.

You are quite right about diapers being expensive. don't underestimate them, along with baby food :ugh2:

There was a decent size meet yesterday in roughly the same vicinity. Portillo's on 83 just south of 64/north ave. ~11-2pm. Had a good showing too, ~20-30 cars showed up.

Don't recall if it was posted here, but it was on chicagoz.com .

area3z 08-20-2012 10:46 PM

after consulting a fellow member, I decided my asking price was a little high. Therefore, asking price has been dropped to $2000 plus your sport rays.

We have a 2010 golf tdi and its an awesome little car. Great mileage (45-50 mpg). Its not as fast as the gti but great for a DD.

Can't take delivery of new Passat TDI (golf was just too small for what were looking for) until wheels are swapped. Dropping the price to $1400. 773-490-4260

Just as an FYI, the forecast says 60% of rain with thunderstorms. I'll check again in the morning, but if the forecast doesn't change, our cars & coffee meet is cancelled. The big car meet at 2:00 PM however is rain or shine :tup:

This is Isaac (G), right?

Did you get the Nismo wheels from Mo with the white Nismo?

One_Quick_Z 08-27-2012 10:20 AM

I dont think he did, there was another member that had a sport pkg 370Z with them and wanted stock sport rays for a trade plus cash on top.

Correct. Much better deal tthat way. It'd hard To sell our sport rays for a good price. Not much demand, though most people just don't realize how nice if a wheel it is.

By trading he upgraded to the better nismos and didn't have to worry about selling the sport wheels.

Ah I see. Good purchase, G! I think those would look even better in dark gunmetal or gloss black.

Yeah, ZMan, I'm going to hang around here more often now, but I'm not going to trade my Z33 for a Z34 anytime soon. Lol.

OK if you haven't seen on the FB page, i'm getting a feel for a Starved Rock cruise on Sunday Sept 23 we already have a few people interested so lets see if we can get a good turnout!

We would leave around 10:00-10:30 AM from Schaumburg (same Barnes as last time). The usual stops would happen.
