Every now and then I see a really good 240 specimen up for sale, and have to keep myself from buying it. But I don't have the garage space, and these babies need to be cared for. If we had the space, we'd have one, and then Krissi and I would fight over who got to drive it! (She's a big 240Z, and classic British sports car fan.)

Now that I think about it, the Z4 was a natural "go to" car. Why I didn't see that, and buy a Z4 off the bat! I don't know. Duh. At heart, I guess I'm still that kid who wanted the 240Z. That probably explains the very odd attachment I have with my car.
Damn.....
Unbelievable how close that is to what turned my crank growing up.
I actually made friends with a kid in school 'cause his Dad sold Datsuns.
