    I really dislike old automatics. New ones are pretty good when it comes to performance, but old ones really suck. I was driven in a 2+2 auto when looking for my Z, and frankly the difference between it and a manual 2 seater was astounding. It all depends on if you want a sports car or a cruisemobile... (admittedly, as we pulled out of the driveway of his B&B with the stereo on and the open sunroof open, this metallic blue 2+2 with immaculate tan interior really did make me smile)

    Today, 24/05/03, at 16:08, I handed over the keys to my Z. Yes, I am now officially Z-less. Didn't last long, huh? I just want to say, I know I have this so called Z bug, but I will try to fight it as best I can in the years to come! Not to say I dont ever wanta Z again - as soon as I can afford it I'll get another, just at this time I simply can't. I'd rather it went to someone who would be able to put money into it and fix it up. So, guys, please dont rub it in too much. I mean all those latest pics in the gallery will be more than enough (thank you Alan!) without your taunts ... :disappoin I can beat this thing, dammit !

    Not sure about the American companies, but in Australia if you go to a specialist car stereo shop (there are heaps around) they don't really care what car it is. That said, I would beg to differ that in fact old cars are easier to install a stereo in! New cars seem to have plastic panels everywhere, and every last bit of space utilised with hundreds of multi-coloured wire going everywhere. Old cars are just plain and simple

    That's a heap. Usually here they charge between $80 and $200 (Australian!!) for an install. But it is always a good idea to ask the place you buy the hardware from to install it, that way you can get a good deal Usually they will at least throw in the install for free...
  17. hehehe another C110 fan, horray !

    Sounds like the indicators on my 240K ! They get faster as you do more RPM ! How about brake lights that get more intense the harder you're stepping on the brake? (dont credit me for that, Jaguar came up with it I think with its F-Type prototype, in other news, the F-type project is back online, with an expected release date of around 2006!) (trying to veer off from the subject as much as possible, tune in for my next post where I talk about Antelopes!)

    Yep, with the current state of SPEED CAMERAS, these blinking dash lights really make you aware of your speedo AT ALL TIMES. I just can't get my eyes off them they're so distracting! That's what the cops want, isn't it? :cross-eye
  20. Is that 1/2" per light or for both??
  21. hi! Actually ,that's not a ZG! What's more amazing is that it isn't in Japan! And perhaps even moreso, it's not red!!!!!!! LOL It's a member of this forum's car, Eric B. Have a look HERE for another pic, plus click "See all of this user's photos here" to see some more! But you're right, it is one AWESOME car.
  22. I thought they came with 185s? OK I'LL SHUT UP NOW What's the deal with that, George???
