P.S.S. He sounds young, I sure the heck couldnt afford a Z in my early 20's.

Bear in mind I'm so old I'm saving up for mods for my coffin. Think I may do the vented lid, carbon fiber sides and maybe the Volk roller wheels on the bottom. Can't decide if I should go Carbon Kevlar for the bed back or just straight carbon. Titanium hinges are definitely a must though!!

Dude, a car-themed coffin would be sick. Make sure to get the stick-on fender vents, too lol.

Anyway, trust me I understand your situation. And from the sounds of it, you have that cash to blow if you want. Younger guys just don't generally, its just the way it is heh.

Its all good...

Tell us again why your working on Christmas? Guess I can't blame you, I have 40 emails from our Hong Kong office that I can't get myself to respond to yet. Today's a day to relax and not feel pressured to do ANYTHING!

Time for a beer yet?
