I had my Roadster out on Sunday taking the kids for Ice Cream (frozen custard) 
and we got several rubber-neckers.  As I was getting back inside the car after 
dessert, this lady walks up next to me and says, 'That's a REALLy nice car.  
But I guess you hear that alot..."  I said, "Sometimes, but it'a always nice to 
hear"  She then says - as she lugs the door or her car open "Sure beats my 
minivan..."
 
I slapped a smile back on my face and tooled-off into the sunset.  These are 
such great cars!
 
Come to think of it, I haven't had the car out once yet this year when somebody 
hasn't stopped to talk.  That's always nice.

Hey Roadster dudes/dudets

We need to educate Nissan people!! 

Driving to work yesterday in my Roadster and coming out of the gate on the
arsenal, a new 350Z Roadster pulls up beside me, I go through the gears and
he just hangs there. So, I look over and this guy looks like he saw a
ghost! His eyes are wide, his jam is dropped, mouth wide open....his look
was so funny!! I give him a thumbs up and he did not even see me, just
looking my Roadster over in detail. Keeps this look on his face and stays
beside me for a couple minutes until he has to exit off.

In every owners manual for Nissan sports cars, there should be a flyer with
a history of Datsun's sport car efforts. If nothing else, for hwy safety.

Have a great Roadster day!!

PS. drove my Roadster in again today. Someone slap this grin off my face -
people here think I really like my job....
