So you're saying that they're going to come out w/ a new SMZ based on the 350Z....?

For those that don't remember the SMZ, here are some pics. It was my understanding that this was one of only a handful of SMZ's that was exported to Canada. Sorry they are so blurry, they were taken with my first digital camera back in 1998. The car was stunning- and had about 400hp. You see a lot of Z32's with Stillen kits on them - but this is the real deal.... I believe they made an SMZ back in 1995 to celebrate 25 years of Z cars - so maybe we'll see something in 2005....



















(so can anyone guess who that guy is with the beer gut?)

Hey, I've got nothing bad to say about the SR-71. Got pics of one of those too....at least I think this is a "real" one...can someone confirm...? And yes, at this point we should probably move this thread- but b/c VQ started the thread w/ 350z related info, I guess we'll leave it....

Pic was taken during a NASA HPDE @ Limerock... That's just some blue tape- to protect the car from rocks getting kicked up & to keep glass from getting all of the track in the event of an accident.

If he's modded it then it's not a true SR-71! =) What a great car though... 450hp? I'm going to try to find the article on it.

EDIT: Too many SR-71 articles at TT.net so just go search over there but I was off by about 100hp
