This is my second black “Z” car 08, 350Z Touring , when I ordered my 010, the dealer asks me what color, I replied as Henry Ford did with his model "T", I told him ”I really don’t care what color it is as long as it’s BLACK”!

Best,

Alex

a-holes have no car brand. i've seen it from all types. it just comes down to the driver who feels he/she's entitled.

i choose to be an a-hole to drivers who deserve it (slowpokes, cellphone drivers, overly aggressive drivers, etc)

On my way to a car show today, as I was entering a construction zone on route 33 with the left lane closing, I noticed a beautiful black Porsche, Cayman S , just as glass shiny and well keep as my black "Z"car, we were side by side looking and admiring each other's car, as the lane was closing I on the left slowed to allow him to go in front , he excepted , in doing so I fell behind him but a white Mercedes Benz would not allow me to slip back behind the Cayman S, I had allowed in front, insisting in getting me to get behind him or at worse to make me come to a complete stop..

Then the Cayman S slowed in front of the white Mercedes Benz blocking his advances to cut me off, making the white Mercedes just about come to a full stop, waved for me go in front of him.

We waved at each other as I took the next exit.

Thanks stranger, in the great looking black Porsche Cayman S, you made my day!

Alex

Nice story!!! If this happened to me it would sure make my day too

I like the '09-010'.

Q: "What year did that happen?"
A: " Oh-ten."

I always thought the C in C Class stood for "Consumer grade". No?

Some people are always going to think there better than the rest just due to a status situation. It's just a matter of time before there humbled. Been there, seen that, someone sold the T-shirt!!
