Yep...buy a beater and drive it for a month, then climb back behind the wheel of the Z. Take a road trip and find some curvies.....smile because you own an awesome car.

I think it you do anything for awhile, it'll get boring! I say change up your routine, like use it for a getaway car while you rob banks! With that money you can buy a car over 40K and get bored with that all over again!

Took a buddy of mine for a quick ride in the Z last night. Haven't driven her that hard for a while. Made me really appreciate the Z again. Sometimes you do get accustomed to the way it drives, and you really need to get on her w/ a passenger to get that 'rush' back. Anyway, it always feels good to hear your passenger say 'Holy ****!" when you punch it.

Did you move to somewhere where you cannot drive very fast?

I hit a cat or raccoon Saturday night going about 50mph and it cracked my front bumper. Maybe this will be something to get me back into the car. Maybe a body kit?

Great Classic Sports car at a great price !
Do like me , do ypor mods and then just drive it on nice weekends, or maybe trade it in for a new Z Roadster, or newcolor , something different,
With all the attention I get with my Z , Although I'm not avocating higher prices I am Beginning to think that they probably should have had a lot higher price for the 350 Z , It seems that a lot of the forem members reflect loving the price but then can't understand the attention , looks, and feels expensive that goes along with owning it ?

So if your not a performance guy, are u a music man?, or maybe u should get a double din or flip screen? Navigation? Playstation!! and Navigation? or just get a nice JL audio sound system, and Alpine head unit, i have an Alpine and i always use it, im constantly using it, (like changing tracks, switching back and forth to the radio, etc)....and if u are still bored trade the Z in and get a loud V8. Sometimes u got to get creative man.
