Fellow Z members, I just wanted to start a new introductory thread about re-joining the Z owners clan after a long timeout. Z fanatic eager to read about and share your Z stories.

Welcome back to the fold. some may only own one in their life but if you buy a second you are hooked for life.

birdmanx1 · 12-19-2010, 08:47 AM

Thanks for the welcoming words kellyefields. I guess you could say drive them Zs till they kill you

OR once you go Z, you never come back

red6spd · 12-19-2010, 09:35 AM

This is my first. But I'm sure its not my last. My dream would be to own every GEN.

kellyefields · 12-19-2010, 10:07 AM

I think I would like to own more than one at a time, I am looking for an 83 280zx since it was my first love but I hear the rumor that the Z may get the AMG engine in the next model so I will need to be saving my pennies for that. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Mercedes-Benz-Powered Nissan Z - Car News - RoadandTrack.com

red check out this article. Road and Track is reported this in July but I have not heard of anything since. still the Pic is pure sex IMO.

birdmanx1 · 12-19-2010, 10:39 AM

Thanks Triple's. The 280zx just don't die; I still see some racing on the highway though beat up...Truely Z spirited cars.

birdmanx1 · 12-19-2010, 10:48 AM

Very nice kellyefields. I highly doubt that Nissan would risk placing a 500HP in a Z without the risk of killing its GTR niche... "Is that the new GTR ? no it is a 375Z and it is half the price of a GTR but the same power"

BTW, I love your profile pic ,simply awesome!!

kellyefields · 12-19-2010, 10:52 AM

and before you ask yes I am the STIG! not really but that would be a great job.
