Hi folks,

I'm new to this forum and after 53 years on this earth, I figured it was about time I owned a new car. I decided on a 2007 Nismo. My first new car. That's right, every single part on this car is new. That's a nice feeling. I can almost say that about my 77 280Z.

The new car seemed a little out of character for me, but I am getting used to it little by little. I do like this car very much but sad to say, the seats and the stereo are junk (in my opinion) but nevertheless I really wanted the Nismo Edition so you take the good with the bad. But the seats and stereo really suck. Did I mention the seats and stereo really suck?

So anyway, this one's a keeper. The only option I ordered on it was an extended warranty. There is no way I can work on this car other than the non computer mechanical stuff. Thanks for taking the time to read this and don't hesitate to drop me a line and talk "Nismo".

John

PICS!!! lol

 

Here you go. Thanks for the interest.







My other two Zs

 

Congrads, great looking Z's

 

Congrats. Anymore pics of the red z?

 

Red? You mean the burgundy Z right? LOL. Thanks for asking. This puppy had 48K on it when I bought it in 1986 from my best friend who put all the miles on it. It now has 54K on it, hence the title of "Garage Queen". Thanks again for looking.

Thats awesome. I would love to buy a 240z and restore it.
Maybe in a couple of years...

Your 280 is nice.

 

What an absolutely stunning 280. Z enthusiast for sure.

 

Thank you all very much.

John

 

Nice addition to your "harem". I expect I'll be seeing them at Midwest Z Fest. Looking forward to it.

 

Congrats! Awesome purchase

 

BluHvn,

Yes I will be at the Midwest Z fest. I am president of the Tulsa Chapter of the Oklahoma Z Car Club. I make my wife call me Mr. President for that extra tingle if you know what I mean. I will be looking forward to meeting you and may I encourage as many of you who can make the trip to do so. I just came from a meeting to finalize the particulars and it looks good. It's not really me baby, this one belongs to Ken Frakes and Peter Pitchford. They're the guys behind the curtain. I'm really looking forward to the car show on the bridge! Scream at you later and thanks again.

John

 

I'm sure we've met before, maybe at Branson. My "other identity" is Lt. Dan.
I'm friends with Ken and Pete.
I'll be the first to volunteer to drive one of your cars to the car show.

 

Welcome and congrats on the purchase John.

Do you have any more pictures of the Red one?

 

Blu Hvn,

I've seen your "Lt.Dan" posts on the Oklahoma Z Car Website. Nice to run into you here. Funny you mention that as I'm short a driver since my wife is unavailable. But relax, I'll find somebody else.

Hey R Seng, I purchased that 83T from my best friend in 1986. After 22 years, spent mostly in the garage, that 83T is finally going up for sale. For a cool $14K you can look at it all day long in your garage. In the meantime I'll dig up a few pic for your review. It turned over 58K on the odometer just today. See you all later.

John

"0 - 60 _ FASTER THEN YOUR FIRST SEXUAL EXPERIENCE" That cracked me up. My first experience was really scary---I was all alone.

 

r seng,

I took this one yesterday. I got the 83T out of the garage after about nine months. Man was it dusty. Check out those reupholstered seats!

Thanks for looking.

John

 

Nice John.
