I got spotted last night, entering the freeway from Weslayan near Greenway Plaza in Houston. A silver Carrera 4S whipped around me with his engine screaming, hoping I would give chase. I'm still breaking in the new roadster and don't street race anyway.:shakes head:

I finally hit 1200 miles this weekend. And hoping someone would spot me. I drove fast that speed limit see if i could catch anyone, i drove at the speed limit to see if anyone could catch me. And nothing. I'm thinking...Am i the only Z driver out on Friday night?

Saturday was better. I flashed a few 350s but they kept going at the posted speed limit. LAMERS! But was able to play with an SVT F-150. And on George Bush [183] a Ford GT found me. And went the fastest I have ever gone. Scared myself. I can tell you who won, but I think you have to p.m me so i don't get in trouble. :)

You were going north, just when both Hwy 399 and Hwy 5 merge together. I was going opposite direction toward 75

vipor 01-04-2010 03:06 PM

I've seen a few recently, a couple PG's and a black on 75 in richardson during rush hour

vipor 01-08-2010 12:16 PM

wasn't me. haven't been in Dallas recently. no idea where 45N is?

kdo2milger 01-09-2010 12:49 AM

sktvietdragon 01-10-2010 11:34 PM

i saw a black one without sport package today at academy sporting goods by the parks mall. i was driving my red DC5

oo7mech 01-11-2010 06:23 PM

I finally spotted Caravanshaka ! He was stuck in a long single line of traffic going north on Greenville in Fairview.

It was me who honked at you in the turning lane. I was in my wife's Maxima though.

Dude those lights look soo much better in real life instead of pictures!

antman22 01-11-2010 06:48 PM

Saturday or Sunday, I forget- Saw a white sport model in addison, off the tollway service road and belt line. funny enough i was behind it, so it must have looked like a 370 mini caravan. if the driver of that 370z is on this board, i was the goofball in the platinum graphite 370z sport.

marcelo929 01-13-2010 09:29 PM

spotted white 370z on UTSA BLVD and turned right at the shell gas station thats near the university oaks apt. was behind him in a black altima coupe. had the370z.com stickers on rear quarter windows

theDreamer 01-14-2010 09:42 PM

Spotted a black 370z on Eldridge around Clay.

ya, at first I was like "wtf, who is honking at me??"...then I saw where it went, and realized it musta been you in the wifes car. :hello:

That line sucked....75 was shut down going north and south, took me 15 mins to get home from there and I was ~1 mile away.

antman22 01-14-2010 10:33 PM

Spotted a white 370z Sport going southbound on dallas north tollway this morning. looked over, driver didn't look to happy. i just went on ahead on my merry way

vReath 01-14-2010 11:49 PM

drove to work in my Z on 45 north and right before the richey exit, i noticed another Nismo (PG) on my left side. did a triple take to look at it in my side view. slowed down to see it and it had California 562 plates =D.. for those that dont know 562 is for long beach, cali and i just happened to be raised from there.

if anyone spots a PW Nismo in Houston with an I <3 LB sticker, that'll be me =] need to get the forum's decals on x[

I took the right turn onto Stacy, then went through the 7 11 parking lot. Skipped probably 20 cars and maybe 2 lights.

Zaggeron 01-15-2010 07:35 PM

Austin: Silver 370Z spotted around 6:30 tonight stuck in the traffic going south on Mopac. Saw it around the Camp Mabry exit. More or less right next to it was a silver 350z. And it must have been the night for sports cars stuck in the rain and traffic ... I also saw a blue S2000, a few new mustangs, a nice BMW 645ci convertible.

I was in my Mazda 3 so I was invisible

ya, I went through the silhouette neighborhood to bypass about 50 cars, still took me forever once I got north of stacy though, I have no shortcuts past that since there is only one entrance to my neighborhood :(

Could have been me - have been driving the Z this week cause the Mazda got broken into last weekend and it's too cold to drive without a passenger window! And no, not happy about it ;)

I see a PG heading south on Tollway after work every once and a while, NWHY to Wycliff exit. Pulled up once to say hi, but got the "WTF is this ricer in an orange mazda looking at me for?" look :tup:

darkROAM_1 01-16-2010 06:16 PM

Saw a Chicane Yellow 370z sport about 2 lanes over from me heading towards I20 on Matlock. Was at H&H Tires looking over some options. I tried waving but it prolly looked like I was flicking you off.

antman22 01-17-2010 01:23 AM

@TXSpeedDemon- nope, not me. I live in Addison, so I'm northbound going home after work. mornings, I basically take the stretch of DNT from 635 all the down to the end of the tollway (then back to head home).

If I see an orange mazda, i'll try not to give a WTF look. No promises though, haha.

Zcott 01-17-2010 09:45 PM

Saw a black non-sport on FM3040 in Flower Mound Saturday afternoon.
It pulled into the PetSmart parking lot...

dalparadise 01-18-2010 05:48 PM

White Coupe -- Sport on Highway 6 in Sugar Land today at about 11:15. Looked nice and clean. You pulled up onto the Southwest Freeway and observed posted speed limits all the way into Houston. Not sure I could be that disciplined in that car.

I was riding in a colleague's car, or I would have waved.

dalparadise 01-20-2010 06:12 PM

Saw a white Roadster this morning on the South Beltway. It was very foggy and I'm ashamed to say your top was down and mine wasn't.:tup:

oo7mech 01-21-2010 12:57 AM

wow, 2 in less than a week? It took me 7 weeks to see Cavanshaka who lives 1 mile away from me.

MarkeZ 01-21-2010 01:32 PM

Was chased by a monterey blue 370z with NICE sounding pipes on US-75 by George Bush Turnpike last Tuesday night at around 11:15ish. He caught up to me and rolled his windows down and we gave each other a thumbs up. I wanna know what kind of pipes you have. :)

corbin09 01-21-2010 02:07 PM

that was me... hahah i was trying to catch ya... I have test pipes and a custom single exhaust. It is a 2.5 all the way back with a resonator and a topspeed muffler. :) loud huh? ps you have a reallly nice z i love the black!

vipor 01-21-2010 03:33 PM

sweet lighting there corbin :tup: took some pics with a blegh camera at the airport but i haven't found a sweet spot to show off the PW paint yet. haven't really taken the time to look though.

corbin09 01-21-2010 04:06 PM

thanks man.. i didnt take the pic my buddy brandon did. he is a friend of mine that works at awdtuning.. the shop with a dyno that i think i reccommended you.. haha we should get them together for a shoot with him.. he loves to do it.. and i havent seen a nismo up close yet :(

vipor 01-21-2010 04:13 PM

met a guy on here "omnomz", named Andrew i believe (i'm terrible with names), and he works at an awd performance place. i think it's in tyler though, so prob not the same dude.

corbin09 01-21-2010 04:22 PM

i thnk it was in tyler but they just moved and got a new shop in flowermound..like 2 weeks ago and they just put a brand spanking new dyno in there.. with a sweet lift to put your car on it.. they have an AWESOME set up. its off 35 near 121 business. Maybe ill have to go when you do so i can get some comparison dynos...

vipor 01-21-2010 04:24 PM

it'll be the 30th or some time in feb if i can't get it done that weekend

i could get it done this weekend, but i wanna give the oil/tranny/diff some time to swish everything around when i change all the fluid this weekend.

corbin09 01-21-2010 04:41 PM

sounds good... well pm me when you decide you want to get it done.. like i said i know someone who works there so we could prob get a discount.. and it would be fun to compare!
