Probably not going to be the 400Z. I hope they just call it the Z.

Why would you sell it if it isn't broken?

I don't want to put any more money and time into it knowing that I will get something newer in a few years

Why would you get something newer in a few years if you've got a (future) classic?

Newer tech, better safety features. I won't ever go electric though.

Just carry a gas generator for charging in the trunk - if you need to feel gas dependant.

Made it to Colorado Springs. Had to stop and blow out the fuel filter in Trinidad, but I've had worse.

@Jehannum is considerate enough to slide a sheet of cardboard under the car to catch the oil leaks.

my cars don't leak oil right now, because I drained them before I parked.

The 240Z made it up and down Pike's Peak today, from 5000 feet to 14000 feet.

Kinda surprised it didn't foul out the plugs doing that.
