Random moment staring out my window

SB North on 87 at 10:29 going past San Carlos/Santa Clara exits, you have a cop car about a minute behind you and gaining, you did not look like you were speeding but, I can't always tell from my vantage point. Be careful.

3 Z's during this morning's commute 815ish

All on 280N SF Area

SB w/Body Kit and aftermarket wheels... Just got a quick glimpse since I was in the fast lane. Tinted. Looked like an Asian guy.

Silver Z.. I think it was the new Silver color. Had satelite radio antenna on top. Tinted too..

CS/LA Track on the 280 N King Street exit. Stuck in traffic of course...

Where are you guys seeing all these cars? I drive around the San Jose area a fair bit and there are a bunch of stock Z's, but fairly few modded ones.

I presume that, as a whole, a very small percentage of 350Z's are modded. Most I see are stock. If I see a stock one I don't even post here about it because I figure they are usually not on the board.

I know it wasn't Lou or you would have recognized him, but I'm sure he surprises people.

Followed 2 Z's on south 280 all the way to the Serramonte Nissan dealership this morning. On DB mostly stock, and one heavily modded silver one. Both had rear window stickers that read something like "slamspeed".

Even though my car looks stock you can hear me a mile away. If someone crosses my path there is no mistake who it is.

Same here. I still have those "beautiful" 17's (note the dripping sarcasm).
