the link to the video is dead in that post Red

Red__Zed

yes, but we've all seen the video, and the goal is to keep the discussion in one thread.

So its ok to keep rehashing mustang prowess 2 dozen times but not ok to see our ZED twice??? Ok I'll buy that.

Well in case anyone missed it? Here it is... hope someone enjoys???

Red__Zed

have at it. Starting a whole bunch of new threads is technically against forum rules, but it's not my job to enforce that.

Just trying to put in some new stuff in here. topics that are way more Z focused. The social Z threads have boiled down to talking about other cars. That's kool but when other cars become more of the main topic than our cars. It gets corny. Yeah I started 5 new threads today. All extremely different topics. All directly Z related. The only thread that's any fun but is already dragged to hell is what have we done witth our Z's today? Then the mod sections. But those threads are made like once a month. Most are old and get miniscule posts these days. I don't even think people go there anymore. I was just tryin to help get enthusiasts enthusiastic again.
In a bad economy and rapid social change. These convos are fun. At least imho. And the threads I posted are doing rather well. I get a few party poopers but most guys are talking about there cars and not someone elses. I like hearing about what you guys do as Z owners. Not what Joe shmo pulls in his audi, vette or mustang.

If forum rules means I can't create multiple conversations about the Z, then so be it. I call it a stupid rule but hey... its not my forum. Last thread I make for a looong azz time.

AK or whoever can close my threads and we can go back to talking bout mostly about other cars and less about Z's again.

You missed the award given out to the first person to respond with "REPOST".
There is also "Internet Pride" for doing this and beating you over the head about it... Always somebody in the bunch to get on the high horse.

The Z never had a chance against the Beemer on Top Gear. Clarkson is notorious for his Europhile bias when it comes to cars. He's never really liked the Z.

I think he was pretty fair and accurate in his review

did you watch it?

I did. Top Gear is one of my favorite shows, so I saw this when it first came out. It kind of shocked me when I first saw it that, after all the good things he said about the Z, he ended it with JeffBlue's sig:

"So what we're saying is: buy the BMW because it's slower, less exciting, more expensive and less well-equipped."

Now that may have been just a bit of a toss-off for a funny, but when the Z beats a car in nearly every category and you choose its opponent... well, sorry, but that's just not playing fair!

And please, the Z4 does NOT look better than the 370Z, yet the Top Gear crew was all gah-gah over it. To me, at least, the Z4 looks
