Every time I visit this site's Home Page I am amazed by how the owner of the red Z pictured in the center of the page was able to get that tree to grow through the Z's sunroof opening. It must really mess with the center of gravity on tight turns.

Astounding! :)

Great observation, Den; I was thinking about the

13'6" clearances on underpasses more than the CG.

At least the guy doesn't have to be concerned about

being thrown to the right on hard left turns--he is

held firmly in place!

FWIW,..........All Z Best,..........Kathy & Rick

It possibly messes with the radio reception of the Z on the far right also. That would explain the extra stout antenna.:D

From an ecological point of view, I'm guessing that the tree reduces the Z's Carbon Footprint considerably. However, it probably doesn't help the gas mileage.

The "extra stout" lighted antenna would make that Z easier to find in a parking lot at night. Might consider one....
