Default Senior Citizen with a new 350Z

I will soon be turning 70 and decided the time had come to get one of those great sports cars I always dreamed about. I picked up a 2006 350Z on Monday. Its an Enthusiast, Silver, brand new, and automatic (please don't throw anything at me). I am still walking 6 inches off the ground. It is an awesome car in both looks and power. My friends are drooling. My wife is very kind and is very happy to see me happy. Bless her. Glad to be part of the group although I have a lot of years on most of you.

Regards,

Bob

when a riced out car gets behind you, drive very slow, and leave your blinker on....he won't even know you are messing with him

My neighbor was 73 when he bought a beautiful 300ZX. He is still thrilled with it and says it was one of the best things he has ever done. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Zzzzzz & my350z. I'm not to far behind you, I'll turn 65 (can't believe it) this year. Enjoy the hell of your your new ride.

Good group here over-all; just ignor the few young punks who don't get it on the age thing!
