Quick intro. My name is Tom and I live in Memphis Tennessee. I've got a '95 Cutlass convertible that I've had for almost a year now. I'll post up some pics when I figure out how. I already see some familiar faces on here so I already don't feel like a stranger. Looking forward to the discussions. Cheers!

^^Thanks for posting these Nate! That was my favorite pic for a long time too. I actually did that photo shoot on spur of the moment...just had my camera and drove by that park. I'm gonna go again and take the wheel shine this time lol. The 4th pic down is my screen saver at the moment. Cheers!

Not a problem. The first one used to be my screen saver for a while.

He hasn't mentioned how many miles are on it . Once he says you'll be quite surprised I'm sure.

Hi SofaKing. Very nice Z34 you've got there. Lol, you might be suprised as well Nate regarding the miles. I've been driving the car a lot. When I bought the car almost a year ago, it had 202 original miles on it, so basically it was a brand new car. Still had the window sticker in the window. Now I've got just over 8k on it. I really will have this car forever, so I'm not really worried about the mileage anymore. I absolutely will baby the heck out of it though.

Omg 8k miles in less than a year?
I've had my cutlass going on three years now and I haven't yet put 5k on it.
Unfortunately, Sofa's Z34 was in an accident and he bought a Blazer.

I've already slowed it down. I just couldn't help myself.
5k in less than 3 years is really impressive. How many miles on yours?

Mine has 129,496. I bought it at 125,507.
It doesn't get out much. Sits all winter, spring and fall. Bought it from the original owners in South Carolina.

Why does it sit in the Spring and Fall? Is it too cold or still snowing then?
That's awesome that you got if from the original owners...something I didn't get to do. I'm the third owner of mine.

Usually early spring and late fall the weather is crappy here. This car hasn't hardly seen snow. I try to keep it that way.
Two other people bought your Cutlass and didn't drive it. That seems like a waste to me. I'm glad your enjoying it.

Yes, please keep that beauty of yours out of the snow and salt. So you only get about 4-5 good months per year to get it on the road? No wonder you've not put many miles on it. I bet you just go out to the garage sometimes and just sit in it don't you?  I would too! It is sad (for them) that the prior two owners didn't drive my car, but I'm glad they didn't. Of course it will be really sad for me if low mile examples of these cars become highly prized one day and all of a sudden I've got tons of miles on mine. Then again someone told me to enjoy what I have...not what I hope to get. I actually think I'd be a miserable person if it sat in my garage under a cover all the time and all I could do is look at it. With all the stresses of daily life, driving this car has actually become very therapeutic for me.

I agree, I love getting in this car and putting the top down. It's enjoyable and fun. Some times in the winter I will sit in it and look at my HUD or DIS. Lol
About 5 or 6 good top down weather. I try not to drive it in the rain. I haven't driven it in rain since I've owned it.
