I'll be able to give it a good cleaning later this week. For now the Z is back in the warm dry garage

I was going to fill up the tank to make sure the Fuel senders are working properly but I remembered that I want to run this tank out so I can put some 91 octane so I can add a 91 octane map to my existing 94 octane map, just in case...

Good too hear they made a small ramp for you. Sucks about the oil. At least it will help keep the dust down.

Have you ordered the Sonic yet?

Mr. Kenchan, if you really want a small, economical hatch, check out the fiat 500 abarth. The more I read about it, the more I like it. It seems to have the that "fun factor" in it (similar to old GTI and Mini S)

Hey mr.zman.

. Yah, I've been thinking about the abarth but it wont be able to carry anything. I need utility... so this is why the mazdaspeed3 or GTI has been on my short list. I saw the new CX5 this am... not impressed. It looked like a hyundai.

I am not married/no kids so I guess utility isn't a concern for now

But between GTI and MS3, I prefer the GTI.

This is the 500 Abarth we saw at the car show the other day. Dealer guy started it up. Sounded pretty responsive!

ZCarMan's wife bought an Abarth - we saw it in person at the last meet up we had in Columbia. It looks nice, and sounds nicer! I'd buy it in a heartbeat if it fit my requirements on a vehicle.

Ran my Z to the dealership, getting my fuel senders replaced today. Took the techs some nice donuts too. I know when I was in similar type of work, the little things like donuts were always appreciated.

OFC!!!!!!!

Mr.GaleForce, I think Steve has done his pre-celebration by buying the Recaro seat... LOL

Good afternoon Z fellows, I didn't have a chance to drop by here early today, was in a health care function promoting eyecare information, was production and fun

giving out business cards...

Mr.kenchan, sorry to hear the G is getting all the dirt on its shoes...

Hope you will get it all clean up tonight

Mr.GaleForce, do you really notice a difference between 94 and 91? Or you need to re-map the ECU to do the trick?

Mr.kenchan, if you are going for the Sonic, take this one:

Mazda3 is a nice one

Golf.... reputation of VW reliability ==>
