Saw a silver GTR out here in the sticks. I was like

.

Then my car decided to act weird pulling into work but it could have been user error, I'm hoping.

I saw one near Mopac and Wells Branch earlier this week. Wonder if was the same one... I seem to remember a fair amount of sticker action on his windows.

But it sure sounded sexy

What kind of weirdness? User error is often a problem with humans.

I was up on the 130 Toll and they were down on 685 going into Hutto so I couldn't see any stickers. I saw what I thought was a Z first, so I kind of sped up to look over the ridge and saw the GTR come around the corner. The silver gave it away, it was so shiny

.

Well I was going no more than 20mph on the road leading up to the parking area and the car seemed to almost stop then lurch forward like it wanted to speed up and then almost stop again. But it all happened so quick, my foot was probably not all the way on the accelerator as I was focused on making a right hand turn into the parking lot and still thinking about that damn GTR. I'll probably take it around the block around lunch time to see if I can replicate it.

Why do you want 18's? Most want to go +1 or +2... Is it because of the money you've got invested in your rubber? Just curious.

Last night I was in my 370z taking my wife to pic up a couple of things. There was a new blue gencoupe in front of me. Very nice shade of blue. It was almost violet. The car was spotless. So we cross intersection 1. And are heading to the next light. In between those lights was another street with a stop sign. There was a lot of traffic on the road going south. We were headed north on the road and traffic was clear. We we're both doing about 30 in a 35, maybe a little slower actually. The south lanes left the intersection open at the stop sign so traffic can pass... well, this Silver Gencoupe Plowed into the brand new blue gencoupe. It was horrendous. The silver gencoupe had to be coming at 40 to 45 miles per hour. Who comes out of an intersection stop sign that fast???? I couldn't see if he ran it cuz traffic blocked my view... Both gencoupes went barreling into 180 degree spins. I slammed on the brakes to avoid the gencoupe dance... then I pulled over to see if the guy in the blue car was ok. No one was hurt thank goodness I gave him and the cops my info as a witness. I really felt bad for the guy. He had his gen for a month. Beautiful ride in that color.

Out of all the cars to get hit by... he hadda get hit by another gencoupe. Gens aren't as rare as 370's out here but are pretty rare in comparison to all the other sports cars. Those odds were slim for the area. Then I thought... how would I feel if I got slammed by another 370z? Lol. Id probably NOT BUY another 370. Id feel betrayed. Lol. I'm just glad it wasn't me. I was one car away. Had that happen to my baby last year. Don't need it again.
