I was driving my Hyundai hatchback with the now Ex-Wife and kid in the car going back home from a Sunday drive. I was in the Military stationed at Fort Lewis (Tacoma, Washington) at the time in 1990. Topping a hill crest, there it was infront of me. The most unusual most beautiful sports car I was to behold... I had no clue what it was at the time, but my neck got a crick in it turning all the way back as I passed him. He was certainly enjoying a nice easy ride through the countryside... that was the moment for me. I knew that someday, somehow, I was going to drive one of those... whatsits... Then I found out it was a Z32. Left the Military in 1992 and went to civilian life. In my office, I hung a poster of Steve Millen's Z32 on my wall...

This was my dream till 1998 when I finally could afford a used one - a Twin Turbo Z32...

Kept it till 2005 when I sold it to a friend in the Z Club. Then, waited a few more years and then pulled the trigger on a 2011 370Z... These were very difficult years in between waiting to be able to get another...

Now, I am back in the saddle again with my Z34... Lovin' every minute of it!
