OK...venturing waaay off topic here, but...
Well, one doesn't buy a Z for
practicality.
And if he wanted to have some
real fun in one of those, he should have opened it up some more. Hubby and I just returned from a weekend driving trip in his 300Z to Death Valley with a local Z club. Driving on open, empty desert roads in one of those is something else!
Hubby is suffering from a broken clutch foot these days, so I got to do all the driving....I'm a bit more conservative in my driving style than he is but still managed to keep it fun for the both of us.
(If you're terribly interested in a recap of the trip, check out my blog here

No complaints at all from the 350Z drivers. We had a 240Z, a 300Z 31, two 300Z 32s and three 350Zs on the trip. Granted, we all had to get out and stretch a bit from time to time, but those cars are more about passion than comfort.
And not to worry...while we were in Death Valley, we were scouting out things that we wanted to see that require a 4x4 to get to...and are thus planning another return trip...next time in my Patriot! Only a few weeks to go 'till I can order...
