How are things in Zdom? I know I haven't been around much, especially since I got rid of the S130. Been all kinds of busy with a variety of projects. One of which, has been writing automotive articles for a few different outlets. I've also been in the recording studio working on a couple of different albums for friends.

Since you're all "Car Guys", I thought you might want to check out what I've been up to on that front (Please forgive the spam). I got to evaluate the new 2012 FIAT 500 yesterday (Some of you may remember I'm a huge FIAT fan) and I wrote a quick review for the examiner.com. You can read it here if you're interested.

Aside from all that, still lovin' the GTR and wishing I could drive it more than I do.

I shut down my myspace account (Because it's sooooooooo 2009), but you guys can hit me up on facebook if you want.

I'll try and stop in as often as I can.

Cheers!

 

Hi Rod!

everybody is selling their z-cars.

 

Hey Rod, nice to hear from you. And no Bleach, not everybody is selling their Z cars. I don't plan anytime soon, to get rid of my cars. I know I am going to restore 2 of them, and sell one, so I can get an S30. Anyway back on topic.

And why did you get rid of Myspace? I hate Facebook, because everybody is on there, and it is a fad. My friend's tried to get me to go on there. But I didn't want to. As people that know me. Know I don't follow trends or fads.

Anyway once again, nice to hear from you Rod. Please stick around and watch my progress on my Z's. Take care.

 

yeah bleach is just finishing up the resto on the fairlady so hel can sell it to me for 2000 on a payment plan like hoov did isn't that right shady?

 

huh? howd i get dragged into this, i know nothing. good hearing from you rod, ill have to facebook you

 

That is correct except for your missing zero. The price is twenty thousand not two thousand.

 

20K pesos? You got yourself a deal. I'll even bring you a case of your favorite brew.

Glad to see you're still around Rod! I barely drive my Z these days, and I'm probably going to be parting it out here shortly since I really don't have time for it anymore. It's been fun, but life's priorities are pulling me away from my hobby sadly.

 

Ugh! What is with people parting out, and getting rid of their Z's? Pretty soon, I will be the only one left on this site, that has been here for 5 or 6 years. That still has his Z's. I really don't want to be a loner guys.

 

Yeah where you been? sheesh

:P

 

Sell your Z Skully!

 

Hello no, that things going with me under ground!

 

dont worry wildman, ill never sell mine, so you me and skully will run the site. lol maybe we can convince nismopick to keep his if it doesnt make him mad again.

 

hehe mine has sentimental value too much to sell, so even if it turns to dust in the garage, thats whats gonna happen!

 

Thanks Shady, now I don't feel so alone. Anyway, yeah so are you saying a site takeover? lol

 

And welcome back Skully. Haven't heard from you in eons. How have you been doing bro'? And post pics of your Z, if you have any new progress to report.

 

Wow! Rod, Skully, and Thxone all make an appearance in the same week!

Ah... the good ol' days. Welcome back!

First $10k offer takes my Z!

 

Nismo, if I had it I'd buy it. Then when you wanted it back I'd sell it back to you lol

I'm never going to get rid of my Zs (Tho I have been VERY temped to!)

 

Dinosaur, CO!

 

That was a great review Rod. I didn't know Fiat was still around.

 

They weren't in the US for a looooooong loooooooong time. been in europe forever though. I kinda like that car a ton

 

I might be around my Z more pretty soon, I gotta job where I work 21 on and 13 off and they fly to where you live and i have a chance to take my moms house of her hands since she is moving back to europe, this would work great as my Z is in her garage along with everything else! hehe. One thing is i gotta stop spending money on the damn truck.

 

no more super charger upgrades lol

 

No more! Especially if I move into the house, I cant afford to throw away money, the 280 needs few more parts but it wouldn't even be over 1000$ to get it all! So no more spending on anything, just gotta pinch back the wallet! I need a good financial manager or something Im baaaad with money haha.

 

Wow! Some blasts from the past here. Good to see you guys!

Since I did the FIAT article, I posted another on the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Juke. The Juke was worth its weight in gold!

I'll be working on the Hyundai Genesis coupe next!

 

the gen coupe is fun! the flyby wire throttle can be a little odd at times though.
