And what.. chance scraping on the curb?!?!?!

I did notice Eddie parked RIGHT up on the curb.. perfection

Note to others: if you are still breaking in.. beware of road rides... peer pressure to accellerate and corner is too much to ignore

Default Yes.. 12 Zs in a row draws attention

Shot of a driver-by who stopped by to check out the Zs

Damn this car was sweet.. the paint finish was awesome. Interior is much nicer then on the boxster

Check out those pipes!

Thx everyone for coming, it was great meeting y'all. I think overall we had 15 Zs, although never more than about 12 at a time because people were coming and going. We had every color except Pearl White and Redline. Having now seen all the colors (cept those 2), I still really like the Blue, but IMHO the Brickyard is really hard to beat. Still living in the stone age, I don't have a digital camera, hopefully someone can posts the pictures we took of the drivers standing by their cars. BTW a friend of mine just moved out here from Texas and stopped by with his viper (its the red car at the top of several of the pictures -- which I managed to lose the rear end within a few seconds of driving it, but that's another story). He is totally into cars -- he also has a completely restored '68 Barricuda -- and he was REALLY impressed by the Z. He said the lines on the Z maked his Viper look old and from another car generation.

There is a very nice, very curvy and hilly little 2 mile course that we took our cars for a spin on. Most of the roads didn't have any traffic so for those of us who hadn't broken our cars in yet, we tended to yield to the peer pressure and go past 4K RPMs. I would get mad at the peer pressure because I only have 350 miles on my car, but seeing as how I was in the lead and it was my idea -- I guess I'll just have to yell at myself. Thanks again for coming everyone, hope we can all get together again sometime. Maybe next time we can meet in VA or MD.

Hey all, that was a nice turnout. I was hoping to finally choose a color...? They all look better in person.

VA Gentleman, thanks for the Nav demo..

I took a ton of photos, please see the link below.

Cheers,

George

Wasn't able to stay very long but I enjoyed the meet. Only problem is now after seeing the Brickyard and the Le Mans in person, I need to figure out a way to add two more Z's in those colors to my collection. Maybe I'll save some money and go the diecast route instead.

Thumbs up

Good meet everyone.. Just too damn cold with all that wind!!

I got an email today from a PPW Performance owner requesting info on the next meet.. All we need is a Redline & we can get the first photo of every color together (has it been done yet?).

Looking forward to the next one....

-Mike
