Walking out in the parking lot I noticed a granma car that under the lights had a lot of orange metallic very similar to magma red. I tried to get a pic but granma car didn't really show its true color. I hadn't noticed the similarities until Kenchan said that and I see it a lot more now, the jerk :icon17:

I never heard of granma red until I read this thread. However, interestingly I did realize that my magma red is almost same color as my 70+ year old neighbors Sonata . So I do see a slight sick connection .

I must confess since owning an auto I do find work for my idle right hand.

To be able to shift by using a third pedal it's just so much fun and rewarding since driving stick does require skill. Plus you can sit without your feet on a pedal rather than pressing on the brake the whole time.

I bet the next manual Z won't be around for a long time, look at what Porsche did, isn't the caveman only available in Auto now?

:facepalm: always go to be one hater.

It happens to the best of us unfortunately. I feel bad for motorcyclists these days. In the 80s and 90s they had drugs and alcohol to worry about distracting drivers. In the year 2014 their is unlimited distractions in any given car.

That's why I quit riding motorcycles after 12 years. Too many close calls from distracted drivers on their phones and playing with their navigation systems.
On the Brightside all of that is why im in a Z today :rolleyes:

The good news is you are in a Z. I can't wait to finally get mine!

I respect motor cycle drivers and feel for them as most people don't respect them. And as I states before now days their is to many distractions on the road. I drive a tank basically and I still don't feel safe on the road at times.

I'm not hating just pointing out why it's not always a good thing to have an automatic tranny sports car.

A butter churn will also ensure that butter is made in the "proper" laborious way...

Yep, I was noticing dark metallic reds and the grey haired drivers that occupy them whilst driving today.:tiphat:
