Default Turned 76 today

As the oldest 350Z owner on the board I am announcing that I turned 76 today. Both the 350Z and I are running great. No major problems. I have had the Z for 6 years and put a little over 76,000 miles on it. Major trip over the past year was to the LA Auto Show, which I wrote about in an earlier post. If my health holds up I expect to keep the Z at least until I turn 80 and then for as long as possible after that. It remains my daily driver and still gives me a kick every time I get behind the wheel. Love flooring it and passing thos Priuses on the open road!

How fast does one need to go to get to Country Kitchen Buffet?


Haha, but seriously - wish I could keep up that boy-like enthusiasm at even half your age :-)

But seriously - amazing to see your reflexes and need for speed at this age. Godspeed!

Bob, there is a trim fit looking gentleman down the road from me who I met at social function. I was totally shocked when he revealed his age of a ripe old 92. Not only did he participate in several physical activities, he also announced that he had bought a new Jeep SUV that week. Although he said he didn’t see much benefit in purchasing the extended warranty.

As a relative youngster and given the rate that you rack up miles on your Z, I’d say the Nissan dealers could look forward to many more sales to you.

Truly inspiring. My dad is 65 years old and would never imagine owning any car like the Z. He had his list of cars back in his younger days, but it's great to see someone your age still enjoying life to the fullest.
