Default Boyd Tinsley drives a Z...

I saw Violenist Boyd Tinsley from the Dave Matthews Band driving up to a Starbucks in a Super Black 350Z and I asked him what model it was and he replied track and we spoke about how he likes the car and how his Nissan experience was and he spoke pretty highly about the car...just a tid bit

How could you own a Track yourself and not recognize another one?

Maybe this Tinsley fellow bought the Z from one of those dealers who adds expensive wheels to increase MSRP? That's just a stab in the dark.

Maybe this was just a conversation starter?

He's got enough $$$$ to buy every one of us here our own DMB edition Z!

I wonder if he ever parks it on Grey Street?

Drive In, Drive Out..........

I asked him if he had a track to start conversation cause hes usually a shy guy and dosen't like calling attention to himself. HE says he loves the car, but wants to replace the bose system cause he says its weak...I Agree! I am from Texas but am on a project from my company for 12 weeks in Charlottesville, VA and I took my Z and pocketed the Rent-a-car money. He says he comes a lot and says he hopes to see me around... I love the band...they very talanted...

the track doesnt come with Bose... you should know... you have one!

he's a shy guy? driving the coolest car on the streets now... pulling up to a starbucks? sounds really shy to me.

i am with you brad.. this story seems fishy..

And "pay off down the road" is a slightly mixed metaphor, if you really want to be picky.

I gotta disagree with this. Boyd has a very loud personality. Look at the way he dresses for god's sake.....it's got rock star written all over it. He's *always* the most approachable one at the meet and greets, and always very receiptive to the fans. If you were talking about LeRoi then I would definitely agree, but certainly not BT.
