My touring sunset with burnt orange interior will arrive in Feb in time for my 51st birthday. Have been driving a 84 300zx that I will keep for winters and learned to drive on a 67 2000 datsun roadster. Wouldn't buy any other brand of car!! Can't wait for mine. Got to test drive a track model and what a joy this car will be to own and cherish!!!And thanks to this awesome forum I have learned so much~!!!

My husband is 52 and a grandfather - I guess you could say he is a co-owner (that is if I let him drive it once it gets here!) I'm 45 going on 25.

Yea you could say that about me too. My wife actually bought the car herself.
The manual says I should not place a car seat in the Z so grandma said "No Way." Oh well, by the time he is big enough to ride in the car he will allready be racing quater midgets. opps....his mama just said " Not no , but Hell No!"

The 94 reference is to Mr. Katayama, the godfather of the Z and the Director of NNA when the 1970 240Z was introduced in the U.S., due in large part to his committment to our Z cars. He is currently touring the U.S. with the introduction of the 350Z. He is an icon for Z enthusiasts and on a par with Zora Arkus-Duntov's role with the Corvette. Mr. Katayama's tour with the new 350Z is a triumph for the visionnaries of Nissan and the return of the company's heart, the Z. I am not exaggerating his contribution to Nissan International and the importance of the Z as a symbol of the company's re-birth.

Besides, he is a hell of a nice man and a marvelous representative for Nissan in the U.S.

Default Eldest Z Owner

I'll be 69 in four months, although there are probably many other Z owners who top that. My Z was delivered mid-September; "performance w/6spd and all options from port".

Thumbs up Guess I'm not that old after all . . .

Looks like am in the middle of the pack. 55 and my first new car was a 1973, 240Z. Kept it for 15 years. I hope my new (week old) 350Z serves me as well.

LeMans Sunset with burnt orange interior, 6M, all options except aero package. Enjoying the GPS, my toy within my toy.
