I had the Performance, the lightest of them all and 0 to 60 was 4.3s i recall.

I wanted all the luxuries. :P

I guess it should be no surprise that I had a Nissan Z car as well. Like Horseman it was the luxury model, a 300Zx 2+2. Hey, we like what we like! The new 400Z looks pretty interesting.

It does, but I already made my choice. Even if a 400Z becomes a vert.

I'm not so keen on the new design of the new "Z." Don't think they officially named it the 400 though. Looks good, but considering that the 370Z was deemed as a highly unreliable car, i hope to hell they turned back time and make the new one a much better vehicle (long-term) than its predecessor.

I like the retro look, but if I could only have one it’s still the Z4 convertible although it’s comparing apples to oranges. For me they would be two completely different driving experiences.

It's almost like.. having a Supra or a Z4... :P Same car, different experience.

I never liked the 370Z body style which is why I kept my 350. It was hellah reliable.

Agreed... the 350z will go down in history. I still see those driving around quite a bit. Not sure where they went wrong with the 370.

"Duke" gets introduced to Enchanted Rock State Park, a Texas hill country gem right next door. "Glacier Silver" paint really lightens up in the sun.

Hugh dome of red granite shoots up 450' into the sky. Comanche Indians considered it sacred and haunted. Many have reported hearing eerie sounds coming from the summit at night. Eco system is unreal with 1,000's of flora and wildlife. Spring fed creeks, hiking trails, primitive camping, picnic areas. Entry is by reservation only due to the huge interest.

Awesome pics. I need to head out that way too some day.

Thanks. Couple of cold fronts and it's a real treat. 4 mile loop is awesome if you're up to it. Give me a holler when you do.

There are some really nice picnic spots under the trees with a table, grill, etc. The view from the summit is unreal.

One shot here is of peach trees courtesy of a turista spitting out local peach pit, backside of the summit Cave there too.

Finally took the car out to the base’s parade grounds to take pictures. Been wanting to do this since before I got my car. I just keep forgetting to go on base!

Also went and saw another out in the wild today!!! Spoke with the owner for a little bit.

Happy Birthday to the Air Force. They just turned 74.

Nice photos!

Very Nice shots, like the SR-71 and A-10 the best.

Thanks. I wish that the giant mound of dirt wasn't in front of the A-10 like that. Leave it to the Air Force to do something that makes zero sense like this. Was hoping to get a good shot because my brother was a loader for A-10's (now B-1s).

My father worked on the F-4 way back in the day, so that one is near and dear to me too.

I'm pretty partial to the SR-71 .. err.. X-Jet too. :P

TAZ007 · 09-20-2021, 09:53 AM

I'm partial to the F-15 but didn't like the colors.

After viewing those beautiful pictures you could also say that the AF just turned Z4!
