Goodbye fellow Z's

davidyan · 10-12-2014, 08:53 PM

Hi all,

I just wanted to say goodbye to everyone here. Some of you may or may not know me. I've been on/off this forum over the years but was most active during 09-11.

I've owned my 370Z since June 2009 (Platinum Graphite, Sport Package, 6 speed MT). About two-weeks ago, I totaled my car. I've thought about buying another Z but I'm at that point in my life where I could use a bigger and safer car. I bought the 2015 Acura TLX. Its a new Acura model that blended the previous TL and TSX models. It is a nice car but it will never be like the Z. The Z turned heads everywhere I went even after 5-years and even if I hadn't washed the car for months.

I'll still hop onto the forum once in a while to catch the latest buzz with Z-cars. Enjoy your Z and be safe. Unless you're tracking your car or live in Arizona try not to sweat the little stuff we all used to worry about in 2009 like oil temps, cheap plastic, etc. Just enjoy the car while you got it.

Take care everyone,

David

I saw a motorweek show today talking about the TLX. Sorry about your Z!

Never got to talk to you via the forum as I am a newb compared to you. However good luck in the future, and glad to hear you survived the crash. What happened?

kenchan · 10-13-2014, 01:48 PM

yah, sorry to hear about your z.

i saw the tlx in person the other day. it's not a bad looking car. was surprised to see that it was not boring as it appears in tv and magazine ads. whoever's doing the ads is killing the car (as in bad).

but i'd take the is350 f-sport if AT sedan

I wish you nothing but the best

Mine never stopped biting...sold my z in august and im still here...However, the TLX is a great car, I 200% agree you have to see it in person to appreciate it...hoping for a 6mt version, but I know it will not happen...the 4 cyl 8 speed dct is a hell of a bargain at its price point..but a 6mt awd drive would be yummy.

Sorry to hear about your Z and glad you're OK. Enjoy the TLX.

TLX is a very nice car overall, so you made a good choice, best of luck and be safe
