Message	I'm so disgusted by the way people treat beautiful cars that I hardly ever park my Z out of sight anymore. I'm cautious (read paranoid) about bad drivers in front of me, behind me and to both sides. Too many stories of people having their Z's smashed for no reason by dumb drivers. If you insist on parking your Z in questionable places, you'll have to forego any flashy mods. If you want to own a nice Z, you'll have to sacrifice some time behind the wheel. I've come to accept that. _________________________________________________________________________________ Im n0t Sarcastic (Kenny): not to over do it, but you're certainly the source of high-class Z mods ZEngineer24: what do you mean by that? Im n0t Sarcastic: I just mean, your Z is one I really admire "The Z is the cause and the solution to all my problems" -- Me "If your car was my car, I'd think it's broken"
