Hello all:
After a month of keeping the new (to me) 97 green Z3 at home in Philly, and having some 55 year old dad fun on the occasional sunny day, 'twas time to take it north to New Hampshire where it'll reside.
Drove like a dream the whole way Philly to NH, including dropping the top near the Tappan Zee bridge in NY, and keeping it down all the way to Treehouse Brewing in Charlton, MA (a MUST-STOP for beer drinkers). Sweatshirt on, sweatshirt off, windows up, windows down, traffic and 75 mph--all to the lovely soundtrack of Dire Straits Live 1978-1992. Was a tremendous afternoon late drive. Even on the highway, I never felt overexposed with the low profile and top down, and had plenty of passing power from the M44. Figured "when's the next time I'll be able to do this?" and was happy with the choice.
A great day, and now it's garaged and due for a cleaning and buffing next time I'm lakeside.
Happy driving!
