Thanks for the comments everyone. ND2RACE - I'm not going to lie, the new Challenger has become stuck in my head. It may just be from a design standpoint, or the specs on the SRT8 model. Either way... very nice. ImUrOBGYN - Love your car. Before I had the Nissan, I drove an '87 Supra Turbo. I loved that car so much.... still consider picking another one up if I had room.

Hey all, Me: My name is Mike. I work at a local advertising agency by day, and by night I'm an obsessive car geek. I moved to Columbus almost exactly a year ago by way of Dayton (originally from Cleveland), and have just now found my way to the local scene. I frequent quite a few other car forums, and find myself addicted to discussing the details of this hobby that consumes so much of my time and energy. I am a moderator over at 300zxclub.com, so I am happy to say that I am not the typical noob who can't search, find his way around the internet, or understand the finer points of criticism. The Cars: I picked up my 1992 Nissan 300ZX in December of 2000, and have driven that both as a DD and now as a weekend car ever since. It has been my obsession, my pride and joy, and continues to be my rolling therapy session most days. I am more than happy to discuss the details of modifications, but for the sake of not making a ridiculous list on my introduction thread... here are two pictures instead. http://www.flux21.com/z/zdayz07/DSC04641.jpg http://www.flux21.com/z/zdayz07/DSC04814.jpg My other car, my DD, is worth mentioning because it has connected me to the VW crowd... a first for me. It's a 2005 Volkswagen Jetta GLI. For a car enthusiast, finding a mint DD with Recaro seats, 6spd and BBS wheels stock, was completely awesome. My commute has never been so much fun. Yes, I have a (teaser-like) picture for this too... http://www.flux21.com/bora/DSC06432.jpg Wrap-Up: I really like the idea of becoming involved in a multi-make, local car forum. I have been active in local AutoX events for the past seven years (minus last summer for all-around maintenance) and hope to seek out others in that circuit as well. I like the idea of an introduction thread being a feeler for regular members to accept or deny privileges; hopefully I can become a contributing member. Thanks for reading.
