Not a Z but so charming

I'm trying to come up with a plan to scrape together $4,500 to grab this cute little guy, a gem. It's only an hour north of me.

 I like it. However, in my 520 there was a couple of things I didn't like. My knees would bump the bottom of the steering wheel whenever I used the brakes or the clutch and the upright seating position wasn't comfortable. I'm 5' 7". I doubt this little gem has much legroom either.

Another in Calgary...if Jim has not picked it up for winter:

Oh I probably wouldn't drive it much, I just want to take it apart and put it back together,  yes I was one of those kids, my Mom would never leave me alone with a multi driver.

 It'd be fun to renew one that old. My mom never did understand why I HAD TO disassemble and reassemble my new bike and anything else I could get my hands on. The urge lives on.

It was mom's Kirby vacuum cleaner for me.  But she was smart enough to to challenge me.  Lady never had tangled up necklaces.

Every time one comes up for sale, I think, "yeah, do it".  Then I remember I don't fit in one. Not even close. Like Miata's... 

I could turn it in to a club cab and drive from the back seat I guess.

I swear that looks like the red one they had displayed in the bed of a Titan this year at the ZCon host hotel. I just looked at my phone for pictures but couldn't find any. YO Boss, I NEED A RAISE.....

Similar, I suspect the red one is the same model but older
