actually a very good idea, Ive seen a few Zs and I wonder if they are from my350Z or any online forums or not, particularly now that Im home for the summer, in my home area I see lots of Zs, never see em in athens.

but can you make them fly??? I ussually see them driving, not parked. maybe cause we all like to drive so much?

I really like this site & think ya'll do a really good job.

Having said the above, you can not be serious about this post!
Go around shoving pseudo-biz cards in peoples' cars? I don't think so. LOL!

Default This is great!!

Super idea ... I'll be glad to do it! Thanks!!

Sure wish I'd had these this past Saturday. I'm still parking about two miles from everyone else when I go shopping, etc. When I ran in a strip mall's Hallmark store Saturday, I held the tradition and was parked all alone by a pole at the end of the parking lot. When I walked out, in addition to my DB Z, there was a LeMans and Chrome parked right next to me - skipping a space of course to not allow for accidental dings. I didn't have time to hang around and meet their owners but I'd have gladly left the my350z.com card.

Be carefull! Most injet printer inks run if they get wet. It might just make people so pissed they'd never visit the site.

VQ, very smart idea.

I'm willing to bet you came up with this idea as more of an advertisement for the site rather than really caring if the Z owner is on the site

We talked about doing this over 6 months ago. I believe Scafremon was the first to mention it. He even made some of the cards but when the sites started to split up so did the idea.

I personally like the idea and would have no problem putting one on another car or if someone put one on mine.

Up to you,

I agree...its disrespectful, and another thing - what if they are already members or dont care to be? That will get a little annoying to always have these on my car when I come out of a parking lot.

I think it's a good idea. I get stuff stuck under my windshield wiper all the time. This is an invite to a club with no cost...... Sounds nice to me. Can you remember ever getting an ad on your car that is not asking for $$$$. This is the best forum I have ever belonged to and I am proud to share it with others.

Personally I think it's a cool idea, BUT after a while, and I get like 40 other Z cards , it will get annoying.

VQ Great idea man, will defintly look into printing some out, I don't have the business cards yet but now soon will . I have been wondering about the 3 other DBs in my neighborhood if they are a part of this site. Also I did have an idea about the cards, this is more for if you put it on another members Z so you know that there are members in your area, leave a spot where you can put your member name, so it would say something like " Your Z has been spotted by ZRiCaN of MY350Z.com" and then all the rest of the stuff you put on it. I personally think it would be a cool feeling if you were a member and found one on your Z. And maybe start a thread where members get them from other members can meet. Just an idea.

Ricky, that shouldn't be a problem once those vinyl stickers are made available, right Vic?

Personally, I've already printed off a couple and I can't wait to see my first parked Z.

Default Good idea

I think this would be pretty fun...try to spot the Zs...let them know when you found them.

There aren't too many around Topeka, KS, but it seems the few I have seen have been parked right around my office. I'll definitely have to try to get them to this forum.

Thumbs down

if anyone puts that on my car ill kick there ***.
i think its kinda gay.

after all do you think its cool when you get car wash fliers or anything else on your car i dont.
plus maybe an eldery gentleman will think its a ticket and drop dead on the spot.

its a blatent advertisment for takeo and its rather takeo if you ask me.

how abought simply saying hello when you see someone always worked for me.

Instead of putting them on other cars, why don't you modify it a bit to mention that you are member of this forum and place it in your car? That way we will know who is "on" an who isn't. If another Z owner checks out your car they should be able to figure out what "my350Z.com" is.

I think it's a good idea. I live in Pittsburgh and have yet to see another on the road or parked. For the ink running problem, you could always get them laminated--I don't think I'd need too many around here for it to become a big expense. They laminate at Kinkos.

I think it's a good idea, but I think the card should have your member name on it. That way that person can come online and let you know that they got your card.
