The Ferrari I rented was fun but i need torque and all Italian cars Ive driven are to HP heavy...my trans am destroyed that lambo on 394 a month ago, and while I had fun as Fk with the 430 scuderia F1, just doesn't touch my TA.....which makes me feel great on that build....however, Ferrari was faster than the stored Z . storing Trans am next week after buds funeral, good friend died the day I boarded

Big Ron, I just bought my z a little over a week ago, it's a bummer I'm about to store it but I got a little truck like a month ago for the snow. Can't wait for spring! If u can find a decent deal get one.

Well I am a college student so money is somewhat tight I'm hoping to find a 350z for around 10k or so. But don't know if i could afford to garage it for the winter and run a beater over the winter. Is it possible to run a 350 everyday in our winters? I have read things of people getting snow and driving and just needing to slow down and be careful (as should be done in the winter regardless) but I mean is the power and rear wheel drive that much as a danger and hassle during our winters? I have seen no one comment about snow driving on the infiniti forums or otherwise that has winters like our winters up here.

Yeah the more i look the more it sounds like i'm going to have to wait on a 350z and save my money for a good one (Under 100k) and be able to afford a second car for winter. Or move.

If you lived in the cities and never left I'd say you could do it with winter tires. But you're up by fargo where they have shut down i94 on more than one occasion and in an area where snowplows take longer to get to certain roads and I don't think you want to be the one doing the snow plowing in your z. You have the right idea wait another year and do more saving and have a spare vehicle. Accidents happen.

Yeah. I unfortunately think a z is gonna have to be something i get later on in life when i have more money and hopefully move down to the cities eventually. I guess i'll just have to stare and be jealous til then. Hopefully going to have something worth writing on this thread about soon. Since I haven't found too many minnesota particular threads on other forums. You guys seem great. Minnesota nice i suppose?

My Saturday is booked. Devin turned 9 today, and we're hosting a party and sleepover tomorrow. I'm also coaching basketball in the early afternoon.
Now if I can just coach Devin to be like this guy: http://kstp.com/news/stories/S3219696.shtml?cat=1

Wow, the last 24 hours has been crazy in my house. I'm ready to start drinking the hard stuff and rock myself to sleep.

I was simply throwing it out there to let local owners know, I don't post on here because I have a G and I post on the G forums. Got a rude response so I decided no need to share. Thanks guy , enjoy your long days and drunken nights

No, I think you need to go back to your forums and chill out with your G owners. Don't really need your input about how we spend our quality time with our friends and family. Besides, I think your G crew does a pretty bad job of inviting us to their parties or ponying up for the parties that Z owners host.
