2015 has been full of beautiful sunrises and sunsets. This sky has certainly made it easier to cope with being at work at 7 am. The Z didn't want to start up this morning. Took 25 minutes to jump her and get her going in 4° weather. I'm still thawing out. I need a new battery. Hopefully your days start out better than mine!

That's ridiculously cold! I love cold weather, but it's a bit less fun when your car refuses to start haha
What schools are you lookin at? You thinking of transferring outta MO State?

Damn I always miss the sunrise because I'm already at school. Either that or I'm being blinded by it driving in the morning and can't really enjoy it.

This was one of the few days a week I have to wake up early for work and I wasn't even mad because the sky looked gorgeous haha

Fellow Z car owner here. Love the pic. A cheap little battery tender will go a long ways for your cars battery that sleeps in the snow.

Ya, how's your Z? Haven't seen anything about it in a while here!
My Z sleeps in the garage at night, but all the weather stripping is old and deteriorated so nearly all the heat escapes. I keep a tender on it every night but I completely forgot last night cause I went out drinking with friends haha

Mine is under the knife at the moment. LSD Clutch type diff just sitting next to the car waiting to go in.. and then my 6.0 liter is about to be torn down and given to the machine shop.. I thought I was going to be lucky and just throw my cam in the 6.0 and run on down the road and turns out that the cam seal was bad ... So now I get to rebuild it.. I also have my 5.3 waiting to go to the machine shop or become a coffee table...

Nice picture, great car. This guy up the road from me has his 280z just sitting, didn't even bother cleaning the snow off it :(
It was about a -10 windchill this morning, thank god for heated seats!

Thanks! That's a shame that his Z sits out uncovered. You should go tell him to cover it or forfeit it over to you haha
I greatly envy your heated seats. Standing in the cold for 25 minutes then driving another 10 in an unheated car was not a great way to start my day.

I'm just trying to figure out how to ask this guy to sell it to me. He doesn't drive it!
Heater broken? That sucks. I could not have survived this morning without heat. My door took a good yank just to get it open.. I thought I was gonna rip the door handle off!

Do you know if the thing runs? If so, just straight up ask him if you can buy it haha
If it doesn't run, ask anyways! These cars are hilariously easy to work on. The 280 is a bit more complicated than my 240 because of the FI and more electronics and stuff, but it's all pretty simple.
My heater was broken so I just took it out haha. Added lightness I guess. I wasn't planning on driving the Z daily for so long, but my Subaru is being fixed so I have no other choice!

no clue, aesthetically it looks great so I'm hoping it runs as good as it looks. As soon as it warms up I'm gonna leave a note. I neeeeeeed this Z!
Haha that's a good way to solve the problem! More lightness is always good.
