That's awesome that you had a good time and lucky nothing damaged your Z during the entire trip. Knowing my luck there would be a metal shelf laying in the road that had fallen out of someone's truck and I'd nail it. I've seen this happen before!! It's ridicules! I am extremely paranoid. I have hit a dead deer at night on a motorcycle that was laying in the middle of the road. It was a small one and only made the bike jump straight up real quick; it really pissed me off. I drive my old Ford Explorer as a daily and nothing bad ever happens but as soon as I take the Z out for a spin there is **** everywhere in the road that I have to constantly dodge; It's quite stressful.
Benibiker and old guy like this.

The first two years I owned my Z felt the same way, now I'm less paranoid and I enjoy it more! Ps. I have two deer kills and one of those totaled me first maxima! And as for dodging sh-t on the xway ... That's what great handling is all about.
