Excellent pics..............James is a talented photographer.

Ravi, the car looks awesome man. I know we exchanged a couple PMs about your plans for the car and other options. I think you are doing the right thing. Good luck and stay safe.

Ron

Wow, those are some great pics. Especially the last one with you holding the key. SF skyline is such an amazing back drop for a photo shoot, and James is an amazing photographer. Either way, you have a very clean and a nice Z Ravi. From the 1st time i saw it in Walnut Creek, i was like damn, thats a really nice Z. Best of luck on what ever you get next. I am sure it will be as nice, if not nicer than what you have done to the Z.

Always been an unspoken fan of your car
Correct me if I'm wrong, but a good while ago, you thought you of selling your car? This time its official?

The "key" pic looks like something Nissan could use in an ad. Very nice.

As far as that "last pic," James came up with the concept and thought it would be fitting for a "goodbye" kind of post. His style of shooting is definitely amazing to me.

Thank you everyone for the compliments. It means a lot to me. I'm glad some of my friends were also able to chime in. I really appreciated that. As far as the next car, I'm still testing a few of the options--making sure it will meet my goals for power/looks/etc. I was gunning for a final model NSX for a minute as I love that car, but the power is just lacking. Also, I'm not looking for a car that needs 20K mods in FI just to keep up with an AMG sedan. Lastly, I'm not a huge believer in doing FI to cars that were not originally intended to be. Before anyone asks, yes I know its not a drag racing car, and have driven my fair share of them--including twin turbo and supercharged variants. I still haven't ruled them out, but that was one my ideas...I just can't shake it for some reason lol!!!

I was definitely considering selling the car before, but I decided to at least drive the car some more before making a decision (I still only have like 30k miles). That, and seeing Alex's Z in person made me want to keep it. It sounds gay but the Z has a lot of sentimental value for me, and I'm still trying to figure out if I can keep it stock as a DD. The Z is an amazing package for its price as far as everything is concerned, and in order to make a true "upgrade" besides just marquee, I wanted to make an informed decision.

I want my next car to be even more loud, and have significant presence in the streets or parked. That, and I want its power to be around double what I have now =).

Thanks all! I'll post more pics soon. I appreciate knowing that this community is so cohesive.
