Sounds good. Thanks all for being so hospitable. I'm certainly not expecting anyone to go out of their way to hang out or anything.

I'm leaving here at 07:30 est this morning to fly up and will arrive at 1:00 or something. See ya!

Default even quality is too much

even if you wanted quality...doesn't mean that it has go over the expected price
no matter how much quality they put into it...there is always a limit of pricing things in a reasonable way

Then that is personal opinion. What would you pay to have a perfect running machine? Maybe you'd pay $10, and I would pay $20. It's personal opinion, totally irrelevant to the topic at hand.

Why are there people selling and buying PS3's for $2k? Because there's a market. Is it overpriced? Some think so, some don't. Is it unreasonable? Then why are there people buying them?

Scott Performance used to charge a lot more to build an engine than Zcar, but there were customers as well.

You seem to have an "expected" price for quality. It's not like a salary cap.

Just something to think about.

Alex called and said no one was at the shop, so I guess we'll have to hang out another night. I'm gonna go over to the Bennigan's and kick back a few for the game. Ahh well. Maybe another night.


Its hard to believe but I think this place actually has more Z owners than in Tampa. Hahah. I saw a good 5 or so while I was sitting outside eating lunch. One was SS with wheels, a nismo kit, and a loud raspy exhaust. lol. Maybe it was someone from this site.

I saw some modified Z's around today. One guy was parked in the parking lot where I'm doing classes. Silver Z with veilside lip/ings sides, nismo exhaust, and racing hart wheels. Seemed like a car I've seen here before but I'm not sure. I also saw a Z drive by with a custom darker metallic blue paint job and a cf hood and wheels.

So far I'm pretty sure Santa Clara sucks. There's really nothing to do here. I'm looking forward to getting outta here and making it to Vegas.

Too bad I just saw this thread....I agree with the "manjose" statement all the way!!! The majority of chics here all fat and think they are hot. And the ones that are hot have an attitude. My wife is from Colombia, south america and she thinks it's ridiculous the way some of these fat chics show of their "bodies." We were at the Shakira concert(who is colombian by the way) this summer and the amount of heavy chics showing off their bodies was laughable. She also can't believe how these women call all the shots and control their men.....Another reason we call it manjose, cuz the "women" here are now men with skirts!!!!! Just my 2 cents

hey guys,

sorry for bailing, especially since i was pushing for it on the thread. my foreman at work quit and i had to take over his slack. didn't have anyone's number too, so i couldn't call.

turran, you have my #, so call me next time and i'll definitely take you to some rocking places.

Nitrouz, give me a call and i'll take you to lunch / dinner.

Kit
