After the amazing turnout yesterday at Z Car Garage in San Jose we were able to gather up around 40 cars (mostly Zs of all years!) to make the trip of about 2 hours out to Sacramento for the next stop. The quality of cars was top notch as usual and the company of other Zs on the road is always appreciated.
With the Z faithful set to head out, the HIN crew and Nissan and the two 370Zs (with our own Robert Fuller at the helm of the blue car) set out on our way to the show just outside of Sacramento. We were able to get so much great footage taken by the Nissan/HIN/ZCG group that I just want to share all of it with our readers and friends. Impressive is an understatement.
The caravan to the dealer was a blast and went by all to quickly, and after driving along side the new Nissan 370Z for an hour and a half I am definitely more than impressed. I should get a first hand driving experience tomorrow but Rob’s long stint today behind the wheel did nothing but impress the Z car aficionado. Rob quoted, “I couldn’t be happier with the improvements that the new Z has made. The next Z car is here and it will rock!” Enough said.
With the 370Z and the 350Z side by side it is easy to see how improved the new chassis and power delivery are. Along side our powerhouse cars on the drive today the 370Z held it’s ground! Go Nissan!
Here are a few pictures to hold you over until I round up all the media from the different sources on the Follow The Nissan Z tour. There is so much more to come and we start the next 9 hour leg of the tour all the way to Las Vegas tomorrow!!
ZCG Crew For Life!!
Today is the day that many of us have been waiting for and working towards for a long time now. Both 370Zs showed up last night with a small army of support. As I opened the shop this morning I was greeted with the beautiful blue car so I snapped a few photos to start the day. I also have some more information on parking and today’s other events.
The event is going to start between 2 and 3pm today with free food and drinks for the first couple hundred people so get here and bring your friends!!!! See you all soon. ENJOY!!
There will be some street parking available but we also rented a lot about a quarter of a mile from the shop with parking for a few hundred cars. There is a map of the location below.

Sorry for the lack of updates on the upcoming 370z events. We have been crazy busy getting the shop and all the best Z Car Garage cars ready for the festivities. Those who are attending should be ready to see some amazing vehicles as well as the two 370Zs.
We hope that as many of you will be able to join us as possible to celebrate the release of the newest Z car and also on our trip to the next tour stop in Elk Grove on Saturday the 22nd. Below is a image of the route that we will be taking on our way to the Elk Grove dealership.
We would prefer that you come down to Z Car Garage on Friday for all the Nissan Corporate displays and the EA Games Need For Speed: Undercover setup that will be at the shop but if you can’t then we hope to see you on Saturday. Don’t forget that there will be free food and refreshments on Friday at Z Car Garage. Long Live the Z!!

With the release of the 370z just a couple of weeks away at the LA International Auto Show everyone is out to get the first hands on experience with the new Z. Z Car Garage will have your fix on the 21st of November with the coming of Nissan’s official “Follow the Z” tour!
There will be TWO pre-production 370Zs on show at Z Car Garage on November 21st from 3-7pm. Other attractions include gaming stations staring the newest installment of EA Games’ feature “Need For Speed: Undercover” which stars the 370z! Sponsors will be supplying the show with a DJ, giveaways, free food, and other attractions. There will also be a chance to win a trip to the next Tokyo Auto Salon! Who wouldn’t love to be in Japan for that?
SPEED tv is also rumored to be following the tour across the country to make some sort of a show out of the whole deal. There will also be celebrity appearances such as race car driver Tanner Foust to add to the entire driving experience.
Of the 15 stops on the tour, Z Car Garage is the only Z ONLY shop to be included! We will be going all our to prepare the shop and all of our best cars for this very important event; AND YOU BETTER BELIEVE THAT THE ZCG R35 GT-R WILL BE HERE!!
If you live near the shop make sure you take the time to check this event out. It is going to be amazing! More info to come as soon as I get it.
Check the link below for the official tour site. I will be adding more links to sponsors as I receive the information.
