My first car ever is one i'm so proud of having. My Dad was trying to get me to get just a putt putt for now, but i knew i wanted something i could cruise in and be proud of. It's a 1983 Datsun 280zx (2.8L Fl Turbo). apparently only 21% of the 83 280 zx's had my engine. I'm just over-joyed that i have the opportunity to drive around in a classic car like this (technically not a classic but hey). It needs work on the interior and some new paint. Anyway, I just wanted to welcome my car back onto the road and into the community so say hi to her!!! lol

Sweet and welcome to the club. You will learn in time to keep 240Z/260Z/280Z owners away from the rear of your car. Lol.
