Talking Everytime I drive my Z....

...its like getting in it for the 1st time all over. I bought my 07 PPW in March and can only drive it on the weekends, due to the fact that I travel for work Mon-Fri. I beat the Sh*t out of all the rentals I have had, and then coming home Friday night and jump in(my Z)and floor it! Its the best feeling in the world! I always have a smile on my face when I come home!

Anyone else have the same sched or feelings??

I don't drive mine much during the week to save on gas, when I do I love it, doesn't feel like the first time, but seems like its always been to long.

I can relate i work in boston so i commute by train so mon-fri i hardly drive her i keep it covered to avoid bird**** and whatever else.I just dont think the Z was made for to sit in traffic trying to get into work on time.I know alot of people depend on there Z as a daily driver thats fine.But im happy i can take the train save time gas and miles on my car.I rather be hopping in it on friday after work and just enjoying the car it is definetly my weekend warrior and i never could get sick of her.I had a 03 traded in for an 07 i could of got something else used corvette or etc but im def a Z guy.

I feel the same way. I look for an excuse to drive the car. My Pathfinder isnt too bad and holds me over cuz its got some power, but my wifey drives her company issued Malibu all week. So she goes nuts when she gets to drive the Z. Her Bu is a piece.
