“Hey, I couldn’t find the “add rust” option on the configuration page. Could you ask the rep about that?”

I owned three 370Zs all convertibles (two red, one black) and my friends owned a 240Z and a 300ZX so I feel that I am informed/educated enough to discuss the new 400Z. To my eye it looks like a mashup of the 300ZX and the 370Z more than the iconic 240Z. The 240Z was longer and lower and the interior is completely Read more

So, a few things in play here.

There’s nothing in this world I love more than a good cross country road trip. Once this rona is over, I’m flying out to California to buy the first cool car the pops up on Craigslist and driving that sucker 1500 miles home.  Read more

That’s a nice collection of cassette tapes there. Pretty diverse music genres. Good listening.  Except for the Madonna tape. Read more

If you have an auto-reversing tape deck in your car, these things need to be modified.
