BACK TO THE Z SIDE!!

Assuming that you would leave us behind...you would be sorely missed on the boards. I know, I know..go ahead...you guys can begin the flaming! Here, I'll even get you started!

That comment of mine was

haha... thanks Happy. Yeah, the A5 was just too "soft". Our Z's are loud and rough... and fact is, I LOVE that aspect of our Z's... The "raw-ness". I think you guys know what I mean. If I explained this to a non Z owner, they wouldn't get it.

What's a jnext, Ken? Either way, congrats!

It's a sport coupe, not sedan

Yeah if I were to replace my Z with something with a back seat, it will have only 2 doors

That's a must for me. But yeah, the A5 looked great, but still love my Z way better. Only cars I think that "might" replace it would be an M3 (used), a Stang shelby (used), a Stang 5.0 new (let the flames begin), a G37 vert used, and that's about it.

Now about the quote regarding the week, yes, it's been a long and difficult week. I am ready for this day to be over. Buddy is visiting us this weekend, so I'll be giving him a ride in the Z. Haven't seen him in close to a year.

Please never mention Stangs that much in a post ever again, thank you

G2Z- JNext makes these mini fender trims painted or non-painted. I always thought the z looks good with decent offset on the front when looked at from the back but it sticks out too much when looked at from the front. So going to give these a shot and see how far out I can push the weds. My goal is landing at ET24. Weds recently released a 19x9.5 ET24 so I'm wanting to get those next. (Mine are 19x9)

Going through withdrawal. Haven't driven the Z in 8 days - been driving the Altima. Drove it today, missed rowing through the gears and stomping on the go pedal.

You are correct, sir. It is a "sports coupe". Hope I didn't offend anyone.

Have fun this weekend and remember my motto... "No tickets and not body damage!"

It is great to see you guys having good results with the repairs!

Had my first experience with a "camera ticket" a couple of weeks ago.

It was in my name but it was my son's car. They had stills printed on the letter of him making a right turn on red without the "stop" part. They also had a great quality video online to view with laser verified speed posted in the corner. There was no doubt he was guilty. In our area, it cost him $50 and no ding on your license or insurance. You could fight it if you want but he would have lost.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention... I hate that I can't own a radar detector!!!

got a ticket for 80 in a 65. thats the second ticket in 2 months on the same road about the same place and about the same speed. These guys are getting smart about it. I never saw the cop this time and my radar never went off....

this is why i dont speed

FromG2Z · 09-09-2011, 09:57 AM

^ how is that possible? The only way to get a ticket without your radar going off (even if you are "caught", it should still go off, that you were detected), is to get a camera ticket in the mail. Maybe you need a new detector?!?!?!

I have the Bel RX65 and it has saved me many times, im not sure how he got me but he did say my average speed was 80. I typically dont speed much but 80 comes up without me even noticing it.

They were policing that street heavily that day, 3 laser cops and a few more patrol cars within 10 miles. Dont speed on the WestPark Tollway if you are in the Houston area!
