Recent moving in with girlfreind, major knee surgery(hosptal bills, surgery cost, physical therapy, etc.) , purchase of bed and couch, and other various bills have "forced" me to part with the Z and have to get a lowly, yet reliable, Honda Civic. I still want to cry about not driving the Z anymore. It was the best daily driver in this city and almost always turned heads. The custom plates and DVD/Cd/XM radio/TV/everything else head unit and subs just won't look as good in the Civic. One day I will own a Z or better again. I promise. Pics for such a dreadful event are needed:

I will stick around as well as I love the Z. Once bills are taken care of and I have more money, it's back to the Z, with TT of course.

BY....at least you can find it in the snow. LOL! I'm sure it'll end up in someone's hands who will take good care of it.

but it’ll be OK. You have years ahead to get back in the Z-saddle again. I’ve driven the 350Z for 20 months, and met plenty of fellow 350Z drivers. The car is great, but the drivers are way cool. The driver makes the car, the car does not make the driver. You can get a new care later, but you can't get new knees.
While you’re laid up and your lady friend is bringing you breakfast in bed, the 350Z won't seem as important as it once was.

The good news is it looks like 06 will have a brickyard-like color. So hopefully you will be able to get the same color, just newer ![Big Grin](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Just as an interesting factoid, North Dakota is the #1 rarest license plate to see in Cali. Hawaii, Maine, Alaska, Vermont, New Hampshire, I've seen more of any of those than ND...
