My First Z! It's a 1996 5-Speed with 81,000 miles. I'm the third owner, and this car is really clean and straight.

I don't know much about these yet, but it's a blast to drive. I have found that when the top is down in the morning, the car doesn't seem to want to take me to work...

EDIT: I'm wondering were to get OEM parts. Right now I need some odds and ends like access hole plugs and covers. Thanks!

Even WORSE!!!!

Some moron put the tyres on the wrong rims! They are uni-direcrtional, so the only way to fix them would be to have them dis-mounted and moved about. How stupid is that?

I was, however, THRILLED to find a sticker under my hood that said the Timing Belt was replaced by Nissan at 60,000 miles!!!!!!! I have >82K on my Sports Car, and I really didn't want to pay for a t-belt! Now I can just ask a rep. to check out the car!!!!
