I HEARD THAT!!!

AHA!!! I FOUND YOU!!!

Playing with all those little dolls...(you looked like E.T.)

I'm hiding in Garys bike's exhaust.

I hope he doesn't start his bike!

P.s. I had to go visit Prof Szalinski to find this hiding place!

Hi Freak, what'd you find out about the Z4?

And why am I not in your avatar anymore, have I done something to offend you :lol:

Ok, you're not in the avatar anymore because you made my good side!!! You had fallen off of your bike remember!!! :lol:

The Z4...the dealer couldn't tell me much about it.

He did guarantee that it would have a switch for the airbag though (he said that the very first Z3's didn't have it and a lot of people were scared off from it because that's when all of the "airbag injuries" started surfacing).
The first wave being released will NOT have the 3.0 engine in it.
Just the 2.5 litre for the first 6 months. Base MSRP is low 30's (he said probably 31,000 for a decently equipped (and I've seen what they mean by "decently equipped"...pretty much loaded without foglamps and a nav system). The 3.0 will have an MSRP of 33,500. But, that is pretty much all that he could tell me...I am not buying one until I can drive one...because when I test drove the Miata, my head hit the roof when it was closed.

:wave: Hi Darrel. I don't know why I've got no power, it sounds like something's blocking the exhaust.

Thanks for the info Freak, for the price difference, I'll probably wait for the 3.0 if I get anything. I just read that the Z3 has a "cheat code" that allows you to pop the clutch at 5,000 rpm for some burn-out take-offs.

Give the engine a good rev, see if that helps!

That reminds me of the billboards when the New Beetle first came out..

It showed a beetle...and it just said:

0-60? Yes

Where'd you go Darrel? I think it's headed for you next. I couldn't see what it was, looked like some kind of Barbie Doll or something. It seemed to be wearing a plaid skirt.
