That sucks.
I think about it every once in awhile, but I’ve had mine for almost 14 years and spent entirely too much money on it, so I just can’t let it go. Still gets good smiles to the gallon.

My wife and I are moving to a retirement community downtown. Costs $200/month for each car you want to park, so we decided to go with just one. The Z is obviously not the practical one to keep. On top of that, the parking is valet only. I don't think I trust them to be gentle with my 6 speed manual. I've loved it for the 7 plus years I had it, but I found it a good home.

Finally. Easy part done. Deal with routing the ducts another day.
While I have the bumper off, I may add a pair of air intake duct. 50/50.

Kinda like it, kinda don’t, easier on the eye when it’s just the brake ducts. Good thing I have a spare front bumper.

Undo the mess from the previous owner.
1. Fixed the radio (it was all static) 2. Fixed the back up cam (it was cut and thrown away, and harness from head unit was missing) 3. Put the correct brakes on. The rotors on there were the wrong ones and were wayyyyy too small, the pads were barely sitting on there! ![]() ![]()

Finished the Flex Fuel retune with Seb. The car is running great!
Next up: New Z1 Forged calipers and pads to replace my very worn akebonos. Just waiting on some other stuff to come in. |

Can’t figure out (again) how to post a photo…but in April I gave up my beloved Z, Harry.
Columbia BMW in Columbia Missouri sold it less than two weeks after I traded him on a 2017 Grand Sport Z51 Corvette. If you picked up Harry I hope you’re treating him as well as I did. I miss you Harry ![]() Last edited by blackcherry20; 06-30-2023 at 04:39 AM. |

Congratulations, Cindy. Enjoy it! That is a proper move from a Z34 to a Z51. Lots of smiles per mile.

Passed my first 10,000 miles on the Z over the weekend! It’s been my daily for the past 10 and a half months, and it has easily been my favorite car to own. Flew to another city to purchase it because they had the exact spec I wanted and drove it 4 hours home. Definitely worth it. Crazy how fast time passes
