Sorry I know the GTR is a top performer in all categories and the launch control is to die for. But for $130k I should want to have sex with it everyday and to be honest, it just isn't sexy enough. It should be so sexy I can't get my azz out of it. The Z is so much sexier than the GTR it almost saddens me and at the same time I grin.

OH yeah and dropping my baby off at dealer now.

I totally agree about the GTR my friend. With the money I use for it I'd rather make my Z the sexiest thing alive. I wouldnt find myself as comfortable in it as a daily driver. However, Id still take one in a heartbeat!

I still need to reload my car with spare tire etc after a track day at Thunderhill Raceway. Extra bugs on this trip. My poor car needs a wash like you couldn't believe.

con-tact shelf liner in matte clear. i covered my entire front end/fenders before my drive down to buttonwillow. removed it when i got home = no bugs. the adhesive is even lighter than blue/green tape adhesive and leaves absolutely no residue.

best part is its only 7bucks for 18 inch x 24 feet at walmart

Getting ready for a nice drive to wine country and a weekend getaway. Took the car to my tire shop for balancing and tp check/correction. While the wheels were off, I added 3/8 of an inch on the front to get her raised up a little bit.

3/8 of an inch of freedom is better than none. Car drives great. I could hear her tell me "that 3/8" you just gave me was just wonderful".

Got my HKS hipermax IV GT installed today (@Karl Performance). Not too low yet.

Tire Pressure --
No alignment -- only 3/8's of an inch -- we'll see -- should I have?
The scuff's been there before I placed the skid plates on so it is there for good until I get it buffed out.

It is definitely a beast (to ride in, that's all I get) and still looks pretty badass, but you're right. If you're going to pay the $100k for it, it should look more exotic.

However, when you pay $65k for it, it's pretty damn exotic.

Oh, and the launch control on the Audi S4 is amazing as well. I get to compare it to the GTR in a week or so, hopefully.

Again... from the passengers seat.

Getting my oil changed and perhaps resurfacing the rotors.
