I saw YOU (Think I saw you get off @ Ashby) and the Redline! Saw the RL yesterday too. I was in my 87. Hey Yobri, your car looked a little dirty. Time for more Zaino?

Hey, that was me off at Ashby (finally someone saw me on the roads... ). I saw a Z32 and the previous gen 300Z also this morning... that must have been you.

My Z isn't a little dirty.... it's A LOT dirty. Needs a wash at my next earliest convenience.

Yeh, I saw a fairly nice white Z32. If the Z31 you saw was drk red it may have been me. I saw a really nice red Z32 yesterday. It had a TT wing on it, custom exhaust & custom wheels. Beautiful car.

I saw you (the dark red Z31) on virtually the entire way from the Hilltop Exit down to Ashby... I saw the white Z32 only a couple of times and the RL Z33 only the once. It was, you can say, a Z morning. Next time, throw some props (a thumbsup or something).

How about Saturday, 11/08? We can meet up in Fairfield around 10:00 AM & take the back roads to Napa & maybe over to Sonoma too depending on how much time people want to spend. Lots of curves On the way back we can stop in Rutherford & have an early dinner at the grill.

680 N after the Sunol grade. A CS or maybe SS with Injen SES exhaust and maybe wheels and lowered. We cruised together all the way up to 580 & 1st in Livermore where I had to get off the freeway. We had a little fun but too much traffic @ 6:30PM Thursday night. I have a feeling it was you, failsafe!! In any case I have a gut feeling it was someone who posts here.

Default 7 Z's in last 24 hrs.

Yesterday morning at 6:45AM, a white Z with a black lady on 880N, then a SB on richmond bridge going towards berkeley. On way back saw a CS with what looked like a stillen hood going on 101N near Petaluma (5:30pm). Then another CS near marin on 101S. And another ppw on 880S without any plates near newark.

Today saw a redline coming on 101S near Novato. And SB going south also within 5-10mins. Been seeing these redline & sb going on 101S or on richmond bridge for last few days on my way to work in petaluma.

I saw a SB Base or Enthusiast this morning on southbound 101 around the SJ airport. It had a ghey Mashumaro sticker on the fuel door. I guess he's trying his damnedest to turn his car into a civic.

Ok, time to update. I see Z;s all the time. Theres a PPW on San Bruno Ave, I always see it when I stay at my gfs place at Shelter Creek, but I dont drive my Z there when I stay there. I dont consider it safe to park there. This past Friday 280 North, girl driving a ss or cs, but no love. Girl with glasses license MZ VZZBZ. Saturday saw a DB near Franklin and Geary, and another DB turning onto San Bruno AVe.

Saw an SS Enth. in the J-town garage tonight at 9:05pm. Was AT with leather seats, Nismo license plate frame, and a sticker in the back side driver's window (some sort of detailing place promotional sticker).
