Default Played with a silver 350z today in NY on the hutch

Just wondering if you were on the forum.. First time post.. Car looks a lot better in person then I thought.. For those of you that are wondering, I don't drive a Z, I own a TT.. It was kinda funny.. I get on the highway and noticed the car in my rear view, and started laughing.. (because it looked like he caught up pretty fast and wanted to have some fun).. Yeah, had a blast except for that little incident before you rolled your window down (i don't think you saw what happened)

And what if this Z owner you saw isn't a forum member. Does that mean we will never get to hear the rest of your story?

the reason I dropped in was becuase I just wanted to say whats up to the guy (if he was on).. Its funny how the forums works.... Im on audiworld, and there were a bunch of times where I posted... I played with 'X' car today on such and such road.. and Ive gotten replies.. its pretty cool.. My thinking was, this guy is probably an enthusiast.. I mean, how many non-enthusiasts got the z this early in the game? and how many of them are going to push the car? Just trying to play the odds.. would like to hear about his car.. model.. etc.. he had xenons, looked like leather interior (a light color, silver exterior)...

I second that. The 300 was one of the finest sports cars in its day, but the 350 is an improvement.

You're right, in that there is a decent chance he visits this forum. Hopefully he will see the post.

You have peaked my interest in what happened; the incident before he rolled his window down. Just hoping you'll finish the story soon in any case.

I checked my database, and it looks like we have at least 6 members with silver Z's who live in NY/NJ, and have rec'd their cars.

thanks guys, but I love my car... Ive been waiting for it for almost 2years, and its everything that I wanted and its exactly what I expected.. Slow in stock form... lol.. RWD just isn't my thing, if it was.. id be driving a vette... With that much hp and rwd.. that would keep me real busy.. as for the Z I saw today.. he had CT plates.. sub, not trying to start a war or anything, but what class would that be? What TT did you own? Was it stock? I got a 225TT coupe.. For me.. its the awd. I love it.. soo much fun, and there isn't any other way I would want it.. I just can't live with rwd, or fwd again.. Since I snowboard, awd is the only way to go.. Its just a whole different world in good and bad weather.. Yes, the 350z and TT are somewhat different, but no matter what they are competition.. Im sure you guys had some heated battles comparing the two cars.. lol.. yeah, don't worry I know the weak spots of my car and Im mature enough to admit them..

Finish the story. How can I go on without the ending?I know ! The alleged incident must have been when you were awestruck by the site of this marvelous machine.

Hmm, interesting. I own a CS Zfrom CT, and I was on the Hutch today!


Too bad it wasn't me. I can't finish the story.

I saw a bunch of TT's, but they were all driven by older guys...or women. I did pass a Ferrari 512...nice.
