Waiting for Msster Cylinder to come in at Dealership...clutch has been sticking to the floor
Drove with the wife last night for the first time in a long time, and she finally experienced the "driving a modded Z Phenomenon" There has actually been talk about maybe getting rid of the Z as we need a 3rd car so I can drive my 10mth old to daycare and drive in Winter Well last night in the span of 1 hr...4 stops...I had 6 people emphatically compliment the Z...and twice walking back to the car, a group of people standing around it She was like "crap...everytime I think your car is useless and you should get rid of it, something like that happens...I couldn't do that to you" ![]()

I just started a xbox 360 car club list here:
Xbox 360 Rollcall for Forza4 Hop on if you want to be an xbox live friend for forza4. (bring your microphone for even more fun...) if we make a car club we can all drive together and share our garages. It is a pretty awesome game for car people.

Took care of the less glamorous aspect of vehicle ownership..paid the property tax bill. (2 Civics...1 Z....1 M-109R...$1,016 later and they're all retagged)
The kind of fun that isn't. LOL |

Needless to say it catches you off guard on how light it is when you pick it up. Service manger said to be sure not to drop it hard, a single chip and the driveshaft has to be replaced. ![]() Pic of almost finished wheel. Scoped up a set of 235/35r19 and 295/30r19 V12's for $200 with only 1k in miles on them that came off a R8. ![]() Then before I left I had to check out the GTR they just got in. Service manager mentioned it was the only 2013 Black edition that is done this amazing white pearl. Not even preordered. Sitting there in the sun outside waiting for a buyer. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() One dealer came walking out on the phone talking to someone about it and describing it to them.
