My new puppy has been ordered!
 
Hi folks,

When I was a little girl, I fell in love with the 280z (I didn’t know about to 240). I have never had a particular passion for cars except for this one. My black 370 complete with sport and navigation pack has been ordered with delivery due for mid March. As I live in Montreal I figured I would at least spare it one horrendous winter! So from now until then all I will have is this site to keep me drooling! I have read all of your posts regarding the Z in the snow but when you live in Canada, restricting yourself because of the snow is like someone from California who restricts himself because of the sun. It’s just a way of life! Besides, it also barely has a trunk and has no back seat. Only a surf board would have been less practical! So I said “SO WHAT!!” and threw caution to the wind.

Come March, the practical Saab goes away and the dreamy impractical Z takes over. I’ll just have to make sure I do a big grocery run before getting rid of the Saab as I will never be able to fit anything but my purse in the new car!!

Congratulations on the order!

The hatch actually hauls quite a bit of groceries so not so impractical a car. As far as snow.....order up second set of wheels and fit with good snow tires. Quite a few people here run a winter set and do pretty good.

Thanks Nikon.

Actually snow tires are the law here so I will definitely be investing!

Congrats. You'll love the Z even more you got it. BTW I love Montreal.

Congrats Lynn, i actually spent $200US on groceries yesterday and it all fit without problems, the hatch has more room than you think!

Excellent decision! The puppy will be well worth the wait. And yes you'd be more surprised what you can fit in a Z than what you can't. Ooh, and don't forget the passenger seat... and floor. And little shelfs behind the seats. Hey, it adds up! Fer serious

Congrats

A FEMALE?!

Just kidding. You should go to DC or any of the other cities around here that have no idea how to drive in snow, its a comedy and a half. After seeing that video of the Maserati with some GOOD snow tires, Im sure the Z could handle it just fine.

congrats and welcome aboard!!!!

Hi Mightybobo,

Not a female, a woman ;-)

I do understand the reaction though. Most of my female friends stare blankly when I tell them about the new purchase. They do however ooh and ahh when I show them a picture. It definitely is pretty and it goes well with my Prada frames! The men I know however are not much better at fueling my excitement. They just swallow hard and nervously proceed to explain to me how their minivan makes sense. That only leaves me with only teenage boys who understand my excitement!! *lol*

This made me lawl. I like you, you can stay.

Ironically I know a few women who like my 370, but Im not sure if any of them would buck up and get one for themselves...one of them just bought a new Mazda3, and I think thats the limit to her driving excitement she can handle...
