240Z

as i pulled out of the bank parkinglot with a check to purchase the car that would soon replace my 20Z as a daily driver, a skin-colored mini pulled up next to me with the windows rolled down.  a middle-adged couple looked over and smiled. …

i was sitting in front of the bank, talking on my cell phone to the dealer in utah who had the red volvo i would soon purchase. i needed to get a cashier’s check. while i was on the phone, two boys stopped their bikes …

a silver bmw 330i pulled in right next to me at the ralph’s parking lot tonight. “is that the 2.8L?” asked the owner as i was rolling up the window. as i stepped out and answered, “no, its the 2.4, a 240” he complimented me …

one red Z, one green Z. i passed a very nice red 1971 or 1972 240Z with very “period” slotted mags today on the way home from work. got a big thumbs-up from the gentleman driving. his wife seemed un-affected. they were older, maybe 60ish. …
