This is a video that my family and I made a couple years ago of us surprising my dad with his dream car.... A 350z. He had been diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer, and was basically given his death sentence. My dad really wanted a 350z but didn't want to put the financial burden on us, so we did it for him. I contacted a car dealer buddy of mine and told him what we needed and he worked non stop for 2 days to find his dream car, and shipped it to us. Please read the description of the video before watching the video. And before anyone rags on the car for being automatic, that is all he could drive do to the fact that the cancer spread to his liver and he couldn't shift due to the swelling. He only lived a couple more months after this video was shot. He would have wanted me to share it with fellow Z lovers. Please enjoy. And please excuse my wife. She was videoing and couldn't contain her words. (holy cow, holy moley...)She can afford to sound a little silly, that is me and her in the bottom pic.

Saw this a while back before I even bought my Z. It's awesome what you did!

 

I figured I would post the video up in here so others can see the joy that he got from the same car they all love. I now have my own 350z and can really relate to his love for this car. My brother now has the Z in the video. We don't want it to fall out of the family's hands.

 

This is so touching! Rest In Peace. he's in a better place now. I showed this video to my father as well. God bless you guys.

 

wow can't believe its really you. I saw that video a while back. Great job what you did, thanks for sharing :]

 

RIP, touching vid.

 

I know the video has been out there for a while now, but I truly feel people need to see this video. We never intended for it to be so popular, but the life lesson that can be learned through this video can't be bought! I'm glad everyone has enjoyed this video! I hope it touches as many people as possible.

Its really nice to hear from the family that recorded that video. Im sure your father is very proud of you and your family, may he rest in piece. Im glad to hear the Z stayed w/ your family. This is an excellent example of a true enthusiast.

 

Awesome video. I got goosebumps.

 

i've seen this a couple of year back.

that was a good thing you did for your Dad man.

 

I also watched this video a few months back before I got my Z. Very touching story. It's really great what you guys did for your father. Later that week when I visited my folks place for dinner and I pulled up your video to show them what a wonderful thing you guys did. They were very touched as well. Good job! Take care!

 

Saw this a while back, it made me tear.

Are you keeping the car in memory of him?
