Yup, at 61,000 miles, Marilyn is looking as good (better?) as ever. Here she is in all her glory reposing in 109 degree temperatures here in Phoenix, Arizona.

damn...nice drop....what spring?

 

This is the first 350 in the USA to get/install the Eibach ProKit made for the 350Z. She has finally settled @ 1 1/16 front drop and 1 3/16 rear.

How many miles u got now Jim

 

I have really slowed down, but Marilyn hasn't! She just rolled over 64,000 miles. All is well, no problems and she still runs within 2/10's of her all time best of 13.901 @ 101 mph! Not bad for an old girl w/ 5AT!

Here is my Z. The first time I ever saw the Z in person was in this color, and I was sold.

 

Jim, you take some of the best pictures I have seen. That LeMans glistens in the AZ sun! Do you have any high resolution pics? Looking for 1024x768.

 

hey guys,

anyone have any pics showing the le mans sunset with the burnt orange leather seats? im thinking of having them installed...and wanted to see some pics of the final product before the install...

thx!

 

Jim,

I've been looking at your Z pics and ure car looks awesome! What kind of tint do u have on the car (Brand, %)? also, what color interior.

thx.!

 

Thanks for looking in on "Marilyn!"
Here are a couple at the size you wanted. Note how the light changes the LS. I think it is the only color that can change so dramatically when the sunlight changes that is falling on it.
Two of these shots I did for a magazine layout they did on "Marilyn."
I have since added a Kaminari rear spoiler.
Thanks for asking.
Regards, Jim

Thx for the props on "Marilyn!" You know, I have long since forgotten the name of the tint, but it is 20% on the sides and 5% (limo) on the back. It is a real hassle trying to get any of the tint installers to break the law out here and give you 5% on the sides that I finally just gave up and went w/legal 20% on the sides.
The interior is the burnt orange and it is nice, but I am in the car so much that I had to go w/sheepskins because the leather is hot out here in Arizona and I like to be comfortable when "Marilyn" and I are out profiling!
One of the mods that makes her standout (I think) is the Eibach prokit that drops her about an inch all the way around. This is the first 350 in the states to have the kit installed and the first to have this set of Privat Fahren wheels installed. I like them because they don't look like every other set of after market rollers.
Regards, Jim

 

Jim,

20%..damn thas nice...i think ny is 35% or something to that effect. I was told if I drop below 35%, I would get ticketed and have my film cut. I was thinking of installing the huper-optik film on mine because ive had good experiences with it on the e60. Let's see what happens.

Jim,
I love your pics but how were you able to get 1024x768 on this website. Everytime I try to upload pics, I have to use Photoshop to reduce size to 640x480 or less and pixels to less than 75kb. How do you do it?

BTW, Marilyn is why my Zeta is that beautiful Lemans Sunset. Your pics helped me make the choice.

Thanks

 

You know, I can't answer that! A previous poster asked if I could post any of that size and I accomodated him. I normally don't insert larger than 640x480 though.
I am pleased that Marilyn had a hand in helping you make the decision for LS!
Regards, Jim
