What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Great story man...if got to spend time at the dealer, good company is always welcome. I left mine at my local shop for an oil change, 0-40 Mobile 1.

While eating lunch update. Modern Nissan in Cornelius, NC took care of the guys lock failure for free and took real good care of my tpms problems. Talk to Brent, seems to be a decent fellow.

Never underestimate those navy guys! He doesn't carry a cell coz he uses all the high tech stuff like Telegram, Radar, Sonar, GPS and so on. They can detect you picking up nose thousand miles away and send you a missile to stop you. You think they don't know how to get onto a forum?

BTW, great story. Thanks for sharing man

I'm not certain which NC personalized specialty plate I'm going to get, each are available.

Wow, I have been away a long time and I love coming back to find this thread still at the top of the forum!

What's up slackers? I have been spending a lot of time on my bike so I haven't even been lurking. Good news is that we will make ZDayZ this year so I will be getting the roadster cleaned ready to go over the next couple of months. Hope to catch up with some of you there!!!

Dealership just agreed to pay for scratching the hell out of my powdered wheel. Whew.

Sort of a funny story. The dealership initially said "well you can't prove that the damage wasn't there when you brought the car in". My mechanic and the powder guy took one look at the wheel and said, "The only way you could get a damage pattern like that is if the car itself was stationary while the wheel was spinning rapidly. The only time I've ever seen anything like this is during a tire balancing"

Dealership gets quiet at that point.

1 day later I get an email telling me that they're going to take care of me because I'm a good customer.

Edit for sad pictures. How the heck can you screw up balancing a wheel o_O :

So, anyone found an older Z driver? My find: 81 with a birthday in 2 weeks. The guy served in Korea, on one of the last wood-deck aircraft carriers.

Drove a 2010 Roadster, 20000 miles, and a bird sticker on each door.

The guy I bought my Swifts from had to be in his 60s.
