Just got a new Z

Ok so I have been wanting a Z car since as long as I could remember and I finaly got one this last week end. I got a bone stock 94 twin turbo, some little old lady owned it. It has high miles (201,300) but runs great. Now Im looking to learn about Twin Turbo's and Z cars. Just wanted to introduce myself.

a little old lady... owned a TTZ!?!?!? hmm.. if she really owned it she probably drove it like an angel but like most old people i know hate spending money.. so you might wanna start getting that thing check out see if it has gotten teh 60k... run a carfax or something.. and 200K!!!! wow... thats high but doesnt necessarily mean it isnt healthy.. and you wanna learn about it after buying it? hmmm.... well you got alot to learn... ALOT... and you probably should have learned quite a bit prior to purchasing... that sorta goes for any car though.
how much you pay for it though? and got any pics?

congrats on your purchase. like snwbrdr tried to say...since your z has a lot of miles, it is recommended to do some maintenance on it....new spark plugs, filters, fluids, check connectors, hoses, check on maintenance done by previous owners... etc.
also, how about some history on the car. whats been replaced on it?

i would imagine the turbos on a car with that mileage would be due for replacement.
