Anyways, I love the cars dude (all of them actually, regardless of the decals). I think the S2K can pull off the vinyls, the DB 350Z's Nismo is a nice touch because its OEM, and the white 350Z is just so fuckin clean.

When are you coming up to NOVA?

I'll be up there on Sunday actually, shopping with the girl but we'll be taking her car of course. Other than that, I plan on attending the next Evolution Meet up in Chantilly. That's usually early Spring.

honestly, i dont think it's *hate* towards the Z, but perhaps it's because people are sick of seeing you whore your ride? personally i dont care, as i think the pics are nice. also you tend to get really defensive and take things in the wrong context.

between the S2000 and 350Z, i'd have to say the Z is the bigger bandwagon car. just look at how many posers buy them (im not saying YOU). just like S2000s "with everything painted black" look at how many Zs have deep dish rims in the back with customized plates. again, not directing this at YOU specifically.

It's a meet at Evolution Autosports parking lot where a lot of cars meet. A LOT of fuckin 350Z's. For a guy living in NOVA, i'm surprised that you don't know about this.

I use to be a service and delivery manager with unlimited access to the dealership and its assets. Actually, my boss just likes me and lets me drop by and do whatever I want and use whatever I need.

I purposely left my car out of most of this photoshoot. Not only do I get tired of taking pics of it, I didn't want it to be the center of attention. I've got nothing against the S2000, you should know that. If it weren't for the dealer attempting to screw me on a higher APR, I would have kept my Formula Red. But I'm happier with the Z as my 2nd choice anyway.

In my area there are way more modded S2000's than modded 350z's. Stock for Stock, I have no doubt that there are more Z's on the road. If you've ever been to VA, you would really see how many personalized tags there really are. I've never seen so many in my life. I've had personalized tags on a lot of my vehicles so it's not just a typical Z thing, but I can understand where you're coming from.

Me being defensive is just the way I am. I don't let people talk shit to me especially when they are in the wrong.
