it taught me that if i work hard i can do the same... so i do. it's all about the
example that parents set for the kids. i mean let's face it... what 15yo would
honestly reject a Z if his parents offered it to him.

for them. you will teach them the value of money and hard work.
at the same time so many parents rather throw money at their kids rather than
raise them. no to go too off-topic, but they let dead presidents raise their kids.
so kids grow up thinking the world owes them something.
i work damn hard too and have three kids 3yo and under. i'm 30 and it does
bother me when i see parents of my friends who give them things that they
should be working for. for example a 30yo girl whose parents are buying her
a house and making payments on it. wtf. make her earn it like everyone else.
the same girl charges major $$ on her CC that her parents end up paying. i
know wtf right?
it bothers me, but it's reality. who will learn more in the end. the girl whose
parents gave her the house and continue to pay her CC bills, etc or the guy
who worked hard and paid for the house with his own $$? sure i could run to
mommy and daddy and ask them to buy me a house. but i work for it.
b/c that's what they taught me.

BTW-if you just took these pics with your new camera why in the exterior shots does the Z have that stupid exterior mounted guage and no headlight covers, and in the under hood pics it has headlight covers and no exterior guage by the windshield? Something seems fishy....I coulda swore Ive seen that engine bay on these boards a while back, I remember the STB going through the engine cover, I could be wrong. Also on the exterior front end shots the FMIC is not visible and with the ATI kit it is highly visible, its not like the Turbonetics kit where the FMIC sits kinda back and is hard to see.

yes those pics were takin a while back, the ones with the date on them, those are the ones when he found it, the new ones (top 3 i beleive)were taken yesterday and yes i think that engine bay is in some magazine
That kid didnt do any of those mods.. that was ALL done by a fellow G350Z member named SPYDR (Rick) here in Massachusetts.

That kid bought the car "as is". It a beautiful Z, its really too bad he had to sell it, and its REALLY to bad it went to a young kid. That Z rocking allot of time and money, i forsee it being totalled within a year.. hope not tho.
lucky bastard!

Just because he got his money from his dead grand mother and didnt have to pay the "dead" aka estate tax because Bush f*cked it up, you dont have to smere it in to the people who actually paid their **** with their OWN f*cking money
WOW...
There are sadistic ***** out there...

What does Bush have to do with a 15 year old obtaining a Z and modifying it? I know what, if something bad happens or something you don’t like is in law. It much be Bush’s fault. Look I am not the biggest supporter of our president all of the time, but WTF. It takes more then one person to run this country thank goodness. Congress is there for a reason.
P.S. Using financial aid to pay for your car is not working for it
You must have removed the gauge off the hood. my friend called at lunch today and said he saw my z at pt's grill and the hood gauge had been removed. I was at lunch up the street from their and really pretty sure my car was in my garage. I thought it was probably you. When did you get the car cack from the shop, and those rims look oddly familiar. Car looks great - see you all around the hood. thanks again for bringing my wheels back from the shop. Rob Collins
