Let me introduce myself...I'm 47, live in Upstate NY near Syracuse and have been lurking this site heavily the past two weeks. Ever since 1981 i've wanted a Z car but it was a little out of my range then. In 1981 i bought a new Camaro and a friend bought the 280 Z two tone -brown and tan. I've wanted a Z car ever since i drove his. Well...A wife and two kids later it's time to search out my car. I've watched the evalution to the recent models and decided a new 06 or 07 was right for me. I'll be picking up my new 06 Base 6mt in Black today. My wife and i went back and forth between the Roadster and the Coupe but decided with two kids getting REAL CLOSE to college i'll stick with the left over 06 and i'll sell it in 3 or 4 years for a Roadster.

I posted last week that i was close to purchaseing a new Z and thanks for all the great advise. I decided to purchase the 06 Base 6mt that was sitting at a local dealer and i test drove it a couple of times. Even after some of the warnings regarding the "oil issue". My car will be garage kept and only driven on nice days. It's defintely not a daily driver for me.

I'm not sure if i'll mod it or not but i know where to look if i do !!!

Thanks
Peter
