I want another Dark green 1971 240Z with a tan interior, and twice pipes, just like I had the Summer after I graduated from high school....it evokes a time in my life that I would love to re-visit with the knowledge, and the money I have now. I still remember the grin I had on the cold November day I bought it.

Alas, Thomas Wolfe was right...you can't go home again. Only memories of the past remain.
