That has to be a fun car!!! I've all ways had a different view of my cars, than most of the west coast people. Over here they would rather look good and be slow. First thing people usually do over here is rims and a paint job. Me figure out how to slap a turbo on it. My 3kgt has seen better days. Clear coat is flaking off, rolling on like 5 yr old 17 rims, bald tires in the back, After I cooked em, switched em to the back, The interior is a little dirty, wires from the gauges and e-manage everywhere. But lift the hood and you can eat off my engine, Not a speck of dirt anywhere. Everything there is done right. I could care less how the rest of my car looks, as long as the engine is perfect. But with the 280 ZED. I might actually take the time and do the total car, inside and out, under and over. Well at least maybe paint her 1 color.

Just thought I'd chime in with this. If you pay attention to the speedometer on 2F2F, you will see that they aren't even breaking 40mph. However, they got that whole NAAAHHHSSS vision going on. I thought it was hilarious. Oh, and as for taking people on corners/turns. There are 2 turns in SD that I take at insain speeds, but only one of them is 2 laned. If any of you know this curve, you will know what I am talking about. It is right where I-8 East hits the 163. I had a Civic messing with me while I was in my N/A. I need to install my new clutch, so I wasn't going to stomp on the gas. I just cruised along. He eased ahead. But, then we hit that curve. I didn't even think about the word "brakes". I saw him start to lose it a little while I just cruised by. I actually laughed out loud when it happened. My N/A may be heavy, but that weight sure makes it stick to the asphalt.

That's a great ramp Jaffi! I know it well. I almost died there when my buddy took it too fast in his Maxima. Now he drives a 350Z. Another great one is the ramp from East bound 8 to the 15 North... You know, the one that is posted "20 MPH". That thing is a killer. I hammered it at 60 in my Z not too long ago and it scared the caca outta me! I made it around though... No Honda could EVER pull that off. They would be in the weeds at the bottom the canyon.
