Nissan Z at DC Auto Show.

Haha. I looked at a used C7 Z51 that the dealer added wheel locks and “nitrogen for life!” (the most abundant gas in the atmosphere) to the car. All for the low-low price of $695.

I’m planning on double-masking and braving the plague to go next week. Anyone else going. Any idea if a Z will be there? Nissan is on the floor map.

The ZF-8 isn’t bad at all, but does dampen the fun of the Supra for me. I was able to get mine new for under $49k (3.0 Premium), and that was an easy call for me. I’d gladly give up a few tenths in the quarter mile for a manual, however. It’s really a wonderful car to drive daily. I like the...

0-60 in under 4.5 sec for a porky truck is not bad.

Is “over-creaming your butter” a euphemism I should know? Is there a video on the dark web?

I think the Supra is producing hp dyno numbers in the high 380s, which would put the at-the-crank numbers above 400, so I’m not sure if the Z will actually have more hp. Please correct me if I’m wrong. The hard part is putting the power to the pavement without prolonged wheel spin.

Seems to have already largely lost that monicker.

Seems consistent with my experience as an owner. The car is huge fun. I’ll say it again, the problem with the looks isn’t from the haters, it’s from the general public who will stop you to chat, ask for a photo with the car, and race up to you at a light to ask questions and pay compliments...

It’s a market. Who’s to say paying above sticker is stupid? Now, financing negative equity ain’t a great idea, but what’s so magical about paying sticker? I’ve bough virtually every vehicle I’ve ever owned well below sticker, but does that mean I can call anyone paying MSRP stupid? People who...

Lots of images of female naughty-bits in this interior. Or maybe I just need to get out more.

I have a 2022 Frontier Pro-4X and I am (almost) entirely extremely pleased with it, and that’s coming from a Taco guy. I say almost because of the backup camera. The backup camera is like vintage Atari 1200 stuff. Think 1990s cell phone camera. It’s great if you’re into Minecraft, because...

Looks like the same size to me.

I’ve been teleworking for two years now, but that will change in the late winter. That said, it looks like we only have to be in twice per every two weeks. That makes the decision even that much easier. Not only will I be commuting less often, because it will be so much less frequent, I can...

I know this makes some folks howl, but I’d sure like an all-season tire option even in the performance trim level. In both my 370 and Supra, driving gets to be no fun during the cold months (undrivable when significantly below freezing). Good enough for a base C8.

Zero leaks. All combusted. Moved the M240i as well (I quite like the new one).

Just returned mine because of oil consumption. I was going to keep both a new Z and a Supra, but alas that is not my fate. I look forward to getting a manual Z, but it doesn’t diminish the joy the Supra provided for a year. A (mostly) phenomenal car. Hated by internet warriors but loved by...

It sounds like the climate is changing or something.
