That car looks so good on the road, it looks even better when being driven than it does sitting still...but the roadsters still look like ***.

All this is embarassing. You guys have no idea how many haters will love telling me about our defective Z's. I work with a bunch of red-neck narrow minded individuals that hate anything japanese. It's hard to defend the "Z" when it has such a major flaw. There has to be a fix. It may be an expensive fix for Nissan but they need to do the right thing. In the long run, this is going to kill them and the Z's image if not corrected. This is my 1st Nissan and probably my last. I've contemplated trading her in several times. Don't get me wrong, I love my Z. I just wish she was as flawless as she looks.

It is good to see this issue is getting more public attention. Stay tuned! Tire feathering sucks if you have it. I have it.
