Hi,

 

August 30th 2006, what a day it promises to be! I've traded in my Renault megane diesel 1.9 for a 350z GT (8months old/4k miles). A bit of a change I think you will agree.

 

Mind you, I did drive a Porsche 944S for 10 years; the Renault was ok but what the hell, I'm not getting any younger. The acceleration of the 350z is amazing; way better than the 944S. Mind you, 2.5 straight 4 vs 3.5 V6, not exactly a fair comparison. (Not to mention how heavy the 944S was!) :p

 

I'll tell you a story about owning a 944S. When I first got the car, I went along to the local club evening. I parked my car in the pub carpark and entered. Approaching an individual whom I believed was a member I said, "Excuse me, but are you one of the owners of the Porsche's outside?"

 

"Why", he exclaimed, "Have you HIT one!!"

 

"Er,no I've parked mine outside and wanted to find the members" I said.

"Oh, execellent, what model is it"

"A 944S " I replied.... stoney silence... no one else (apart from one other brave 944 owner who had also ventured in for the first time) spoke to me for the rest of the evening.

 

Suffice to say, I never went back. Funny bunch 911 owners. (Still like the car though, always have, always will).

I was thinking of Dave "Lucky Bastard" Baker! Do you have a yellow Zed too, Sarnie? ;)
