Just called and put insurance back on the car. Purchased it the end of September, drove it for a month and then put in away... It will be nice to get it out, drive down the road with the top down again... I only had it for a month before I put it to bed, but loved every minute!! Can not wait for 80 degrees and sun this summer!!!:happydance:

Winter here in Minnesota has been rather tame this year. I had the opportunity to drive my Z in December and January. Seen 2 350z zooming about too. :)

Here is to another great year! :driving:

My winter driver was 2001 Grand Cherokee also... until cooling system problems...head gasket...many other problems. Also the sadness every time I walked by my Z. NOW... I sold the Jeep and drove the Z all "winter" with snow tires and enjoy every day :)

Just pulled my Z out of storage. Even with winter tires, it feels like when I drove her off the lot the first day. Love her!

Z was out
 
of the barn today. 2 hrs plus. I dont know if anyone notices but the longer you drive the Z the better it feels. Tires break in. Engine warms up. Fluids heat up. Just feels good the longer you run. I lined the hatch area with a insulator and it helps to. Another note, the looks you get, that felt good again. And lastly, threw in $20 of gas and after paying and walking out the area where you pay . Looked up and man was she beautiful. It was dark and she reflected the red and yellow lights of the gas station against the shiny black finish. :tup:

Wow...it's true then..almost all Z owners must experience that same common bliss every time they walk out and look at their car, cause I get that same feeling everytime, fall in love every single time, which tells me I made the correct choice 6 months ago..:)

We had the same here in Michigan, I was able to get out on my Honda CBR for the first time in January and February, that's pretty much unheard of here in Michigan. This might be the first time that I ride my motorcycle in every month of the year. :tup:

My winter ride (and Home Depot shuttle) is a 200 Ford Ranger.
Man, I've missed the Z.
Today is the day.
