Thumbs up Met with stungeon last week and took some pics!

Just wanted to share. I PM'd stungeon last week about our drive through Cary/Raleigh (we were on our way to an event I coordinate called the DragonBall Run in Alcoa, Tennessee) and wanted to see a 350Z in person. Thankfully, he was able to meet up with us and I got my first good look at a new Z.

You guys have an awesome ride. I loved the entire car! Looks fantastic and it was great to finally see one (and touch one)! Of course, I just returned from Miami on my vacation and saw about 5 350Z's but I was driving the Pilot!

Here are some pics I took. . .











Thanks again stungeon and a big 'ole thanks goes out to this great board!

I got to meet the old Stungeon myself this weekend. I think he felt pity for me so he let me sit in her and rev it for a while. My first impressions were exactly like that of my Dealer's Sales Manager:

1. The car was crafted by an angel.
2. The rear end is smaller than in photos
3. The front is bigger than in photos
4. The size is perfect, not too big, not too small.
5. The cabin is roomier than the Audi TT and you feel like you are sitting low because of the tall doors.

So a big thanks to Stungeon for letting me get up close and personal for the first time.

Incidentally, I went to lunch today with our Customer Service Manager (who is a SUV driver in her late 40's) and she commented that she had seen Stungeon's car on Sunday. Her comment:

"It was unmistakable. There's no other car like it on the road."

I couldn't agree more. Now all I need is my Daytona Track for Xmas.

Damn, that's gonna be a great time for you!

We had well over 50 S2000's last weekend. It was one hell of an event!



The rain let up once we arrived at the Dragon and after about 45 minutes or so, the sky opened up to georgeous blue skys and the road was dry in minutes. What a great time!

I'll be returning from yet another vacation on the 13th. We have an S2000 meet in Hudson Valley, New York that will bring in 100+ S2000's.

You gotta give me some feedback on how the Z handles the Dragon.

That's mighty kind of you to say. Thanks!

I also coordinate the Outer Banks Run. This past March, we had 48 S2000's and 75+ enthusiasts attend the event. A full day of great drives and socializing. I even arranged for aerial photgraphy. Here are some pics of that event.





The aerial shot. . .the Ferry's capacity is 50 cars but with the weight and size of the S2000's, they were able to allow a few more folks in the rear.
