Default no verts drivers around here?

I've seen a lot of coupe Z memebers writing about their Z but where is ZR members?? I know its the same car and Z is a Z all that stuff but I want to share about ZR with you guys too.

I guess my boat starts sinking..

^^ Nice! I love driving through the Smokies. Especially RT129 to Fontana Dam. I used to live in Knoxville but that was before I bought the 350ZR.

You might want to consider mods to the suspension just so you can enjoy those nice curves a little better.

Default Where are the Roadsters?

I was wondering the same thing....I drove 300 miles today from my place in Glendora CA down to a meeting in San Diego-took the Honda Civic Hybrid...

Saw ONE Z coupe and no roadsters. Man, what a perfect day in So Cal to be out with the top down....crystal blue skies, sparkling ocean, 72 degrees, no traffic....

On this DB I am guilty as charged about not posting. As a newbie, I have lots of questions, but have been spending what time I have lurking, trying to find answers before asking questions!

Tonite I am going to search around-I hope there is an 06 Roadster owners manual here on PDF...NOT going to pay $29 at the dealership for one!

Cheers,
Steve

^^ Nice Yogi. It's good to see members step up so quickly.

Was that an owner's manual or service manual you are looking for? I'm guessing that every possible question for the owner's manual has been asked on here at some point.

Hey,

Thanks for the PDF...I cannot believe the dealership wanted $29 for one...

BTW, I went onto that Nissan website and registered. Thanks again!

Default Agreed

I have been spending time on the 'regular' board because this one is so slow...

Anyway - I was out today - top down as usual. Advantage of being in northern TX - top is down for 9 months or more every year

Today it was in the mid eighties, light breeze and pretty much perfect Vert weather...yet every ragtop I saw was top up....I don't get it.

Tomorrow J and I are gonna ride up to Big Bear Lake and take advantage of another fabulous So Cal day! Only decision is do we take the Z or the motorcycle??

Cheers,

Steve in So Cal

Well I should represent the great white north. Top still going down every day. The temps are starting to drop into the mid 50's but its hard to cruise with the top up when guys are still riding around on motorcycles.

Same here in DFW area - very strange to have these picture perfect top down days....and a bunch of vert drivers have the top up. I guess it makes it harder to talk on the cell phone w/the top down (a very big problem in this area - and one of my pet peeves!).
