Hi there, My wife and I recently purchased a Pearl White 1995 300zx twin turbo, with a T Top and automatic (her idea, but if momma isn't happy no one is) transmission.

I have wanted a Z since I was 16 and our next door neighbor brought home a brand new 240Z. So one day last year we were at a Nissan Dealership and they had just taken a 300zx in trade and my wife saw it and decided she needed a "fun little sports car". After a couple of weeks looking at cars in CT, NY, NJ and Pa. we found this one and have been in love with it since.

The guys at RDZ told us about the club and we just had to join. Once we get a few things done to the car we are looking forward to attending some of the events.

Welcome to the CTZCC family! It always amazes me how everyone has a Z story to tell from their younger years! Anxious to meet you and your wife at one of our events!

welcome to the club. nothing wrong with owning an automatic twin turbo. just picked up an automatic 86 turbo myself it made the wife happy knowing she could drive it too. you could always buy a 5 speed Z car in the future for yourself... :roll:

Welcome Dave! Glad to have you aboard, and hope to meet you in person soon. Thanks for joining us (and THANK YOU, RDZ for recruiting him!).

You're a sly fox ~ keeping your wife happy by buying a 300TT :twisted: !
I hope she likes her 'little sports car' and all the attention it's going to get her (no joke).

It gives us great satisfaction to read of a life-long dream-come-true; you wanted a Z since childhood and now you finally have one of the best ones they ever made. Time to start having fun!

I hope you'll find the CTZCC as friendly and helpful as I have. This is a great bunch of guyz and galz in here, who are always ready to lend support to their fellow Z family. Really glad to have you among us.

Z ya!
Frank

OR A 6-SPEED :!: :!: :lol: :lol:
The more gears the better!
But I don't think a 13-speed Road Ranger behind a 650-horse twin
turbo Cat or Cummins is the answer for a Z...............................

Oh, yeah, Hi, Dave, and welcome to the Club.
You and your wife will love it here-------we definitely do!
What's her name; we want to get her involved, too!

BTW I need help on the pronunciation-- Is it like Roger? Or Logger?
Or KoJer (soft G)? or KoGer (hard G)?
At least I didn't have any trouble with David........unless you say it
the Israeli way, Dah-VEED.......................

All Z Best,...............................Kathy & Rick

Dave,
It was really nice meeting you yesterday and being our cars are so close we should probably stay close too. Please don't hesitate to call me with questions of how best to deal with this or that. I'm very proficient with the NA and am starting to come up to speed on the TT.

It was nice to meet Dave at the Middletown meeting last night. A cool guy, and we're glad to add him (and his ZX!) to our roster. Dave, I hope you had a good time with us last night?

Frank

Dave,
Are you going on the Colins run to the RI airshow this upcoming weekend? Also, please fill in your profile e-mail so that I or others might be able to get a hold of you easier.
Taylor
