I know, the cars across the street are some old honda's. what's up with the neighborhood? I know he listed all the cars and has pics, but somehow it just doesn't add up

Man, that sucks!! I was hoping to go by there tomorrow and take a look at it (noticed on nissans website that Stevens creek had a black track) I guess I should have went after work like I was thinking, but I was too lazy.... Oh well. congrats on another great car, if I'm lucky maybe I will see you driving around while I am waiting.....

I will show up at Starbucks @ El Camino & Lawrence as other Saturdays after lunch time. You can spy my 350z there tomorrow because I am sure I am breaking it in tomorrow. But no talking to me from behind, please

thanks for letting me know (and I'm sure *$$ thanks you too, for the extra business you bring in when you show up there ) too bad I am heading up to the city around that time. Maybe I will take my girlfriend to Flames down the street for a late breakfast, and see how long it takes her to figure out I am trying to stall....

It's so frustrating that I can not go that fast yet

I found the ride is a little more bumpy compared to my other cars. You feel it when you go over 80mph or so. But still the handling is good even on 90mph....

Clutch is getting smoother a little bit. I still don't like how the reverse works. It's hard too.

It's fun to drive

Yup Tako's car is pretty darn good looking in black.

I've gotta say those brakes are awesome, much better than the ones they put on the 300ZX.

I can definitaly feel the potential with the 350Z

My 300ZXTT and 240Z(soon to be Turbo) Below


Thanks for letting me check it out Tako

Reverse is easy: just push it down (i.e. towards the ground) and move it into position (right and back). Lots of cars do reverse this way, where you have to push down so you don't engage it by accident (like finding reverse instead of 6th at 80 MPH!)

You have the most sought after car by me.... the Lamborghini Murciealgo..... how does that compare to the 350Z...... And how much did you get the Murciealgo for.... Did u save anything or pay the full sticker.... Just curious.... My Z comes in about Sept 19... Hopefully sooner...

So, I have a question. Did you ask the dealership not to drill the holes for the license plate frame? Those two little holes in your bumper look painful.

Damn tako thats a CRAZY car line up ... I have to say I don't know any one that has a line up that can battle yours. Props on the 350z track finishing it off. MORE PICS OF EVERYTHING!!!! especially the lambo.

I forgot to tell dealer not to drill it, so it's my fault. I may order another bumper and paint it.......
