March 11, 200520 yr comment_116175 Do not sell it; you will regret it, you have not sold it yet and regret it. Save your pennies and spend it on the Z.Like Tomohawk said they have the worst side impact rating. Do you really want a car like that when he is around driving at break neck speeds with a helmet on?I could understand if your delema was over an E36 M3 Bimmer but a Neon? Front wheel drive? Stay loyal to the brotherhood. Do not be a lost sheep in the sea of mundane modern non rice burning rice cars. TAKE THAT CAR OFF EBAY!

March 11, 200520 yr comment_116179 I don't remember ever making a claim that I drive at "break-neck speeds." I hardly ever exceed the speed limit. I'm too busy looking cool.

March 11, 200520 yr comment_116182 Come on Tomohawk, Cleveland is not that far from the equatorCleveland, Ohio:lat 41,28 at 12:00 noonSounds like you're breaking the speedlimit while watching Magnum in the livingroom!!anything over 40mph is breakneck, remember, the speed can't kill you, it is the rapid decelleration trauma, or the centripital force that puts you in harms way!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/15260-faithfull-brotherhood-of-all-that-is-z-guid-me-in-my-moment-of-temptation/?&page=2#findComment-116182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 11, 200520 yr comment_116191 hahahaha good one will. I love how you added Magnum in there aswell. FWIW I have a similar set of glasses Tomohawk I'll upload a pic one day Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/15260-faithfull-brotherhood-of-all-that-is-z-guid-me-in-my-moment-of-temptation/?&page=2#findComment-116191 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 11, 200520 yr comment_116197 I leave the racing to cars on TV. Remember Mr. Magnum drove on closed roads, with all the necesary permits to break speed limits.

March 11, 200520 yr comment_116198 O.k. not break neck. I think a helmet should serve as the necessary requirement to drive at "break neck" speeds. You could add the HANS for good measure too.Now back to selling the Z, DON'T SELL IT!

March 11, 200520 yr comment_116204 It just looks like Tomohawk's driving at break neck speeds 'cause of the AFDB he's wearing.

March 11, 200520 yr comment_116206 Please hear my plea for guidance for I have sinned...My son, you have committed a grave sin. But since you have confessed your sins, Mr. K's spirit will have mercy upon your soul. For your penance, you must await a beautiful, sunny, spring morning. You must fill up the gas tank with premium. You must drive until you find a twisty road. Then you must drive that twisty road until you find the most beautiful oak in the forest. You must pull off, sit under that oak, and look back at your Zed and imagine how the ride you just had and the sight you are now seeing would have looked and felt if it was a Neon. Study that oak above you and that Zed in front of you and think about what is beautiful and what is worth preserving.Now, go forth and sin no more.

March 11, 200520 yr comment_116214 As I've said before, owning a Z is like dating a very beautiful and very tall woman. It's fun to do go out with her once in a while, but you must be extremely confident of yourself and devoted to carry it out for a long time.There will always be "cute little" women out there that will entice you to stray. But, once you've basked in the envy and admiration you receive from others who see you with that woman, it's a rush like no other. You find you love the woman more and want to take her out more often.A "cute little" woman is good too. However, now you're living within the "box", and doing what everyone else is doing.Me, I'll take my Z. While there are other cars out there that have ~some~ appeal, nothing compares to the Z.Aside from all that, the reference to the Neon's side-impact rating is a non-sequituur. The Z, let's face it and admit it, as far as the Early Z's go, has a woefully and incredibly LOW Impact Safety. That's simply because the cars were NOT built with the safety standards inherent in their design that cars built in more current times have. You definitely DO NOT want to be in ANY kind of accident in a Z.Now there will be some who'll try to nit-pick this, but if you've checked out the structure, sheet metal and safety crumple zones in a Z, you'll know that they're simply not there for a "safe" accident. (What an oxymoron!)So, if current technology as far a safety is the issue, or higher horsepower, or handling or...... Why not buy a 350Z? They DO have everything mentioned. Then at least you'd still be in the family.Enrique Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/15260-faithfull-brotherhood-of-all-that-is-z-guid-me-in-my-moment-of-temptation/?&page=2#findComment-116214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
