Actually...I am going on short test drives. Every few minutes another coworker sees the car in our lot, finds out whose it is, and comes to talk about it. Then we go ride. It handles sooo nice, but it is sooo hard to keep under 4000 rom and when you are driving casually, you can look down and see 60+ for a speed.

Neither actually, just a weather "nut" - and yes, sometimes I just sit and watch the Weather Channel - I'm sure there are several of us here

Count me in on that. I watch the radar praying for a wicked thunderstorm and would love to see a tornado or a hurricane.
I'm weird like that...........ufo would be cool too, long as those
little green ***** don't get near the Z, then again, I would just
pull away...........

Haha! I once heard the Weather Channel called "Old Folk's MTV"

One thing good about it, there's no re-runs!

Ok a few details about getting my Z.

1st...get there AS SOON as you car gets there. My dealership has been average and I made sure they followed all my requests for the new car PDI....but still they had at least 5 potential customers "drop by" while I was waiting for the final detailing to be finished. One little #$%@ salesman even said "I am just gonna take this customer for a quick test drive before you buy the Z"....umm...no. I had a nice long talk with the customer giving them far more info than the salesman ever could (no he did not drive it anywhere). And then the salesman and I went to have a little chat with the gm about how to handle future preordered Z's. I am sure if I had not been there I would have gotten a nice apology later after they had taken a test drive but it is just proof of what could happen. (it had 6 miles when I got there) In all, still happy with the dealership as a whole, and my salesman in particular. (aside...had to finance through my credit union as the dealership could not even get the numbers close to those that show on the nissan driven payment estimator website. I know I am rambling but it is 2am and I just got home from driving.

2nd...the car is phenomenal. I can give a variety of reasons for that opinion but that is the bottom line.

3rd...I am positive I will get a ticket/tickets (have not had one in the last 10 years). This car is so stable it feels like you are barely moving at 40mph, and I can easily find myself at 60+ on "backroads" (meaning 35 to 50 mph areas).

Move later.
