Bought a car

[Raza]

This isn't the 2 by 2 version, is it?  T tops, right?

While I lament you not getting the new Z car, this is a great choice.  With the 2 seater and T tops, it fits my definition of a sports car.  Lucky you! :)

2+2's don't come in turbo form.

Mine is a 2 seat turbo model, and i think all Z's came with T-Tops(or like 98%).

Personally i don't like the T-Tops, i never use them and they are more prone to rust(due to the drains coming out in the wheel well and the tendancy to trap dirt in the drains lines).

However with any good Z you don't have to worry about that, good meaning well cared for garaged Z's. Most people wont even drive them in the rain(SOME traction issues in rain :D ). This one is pretty much spotless.

Congratulations.
Now, I've gotta go play catch up on the rest of the thread. :D

[FlatBlackCaddy]

Thanks FOL and Bobwill.

Speaking of "lead foot" i had a hard time not downshifting to forth and punching on the way home, i restrained myself and drove the speedlimit.


Its just so much fun watching that boost gauge spike up to 14psi.

Here's a few pics of the car, its all i have right now(my dad snapped them when we went to pick it up).

I'll have some more later when i use the better digi, and get it cleaned up some more.





I will be pulling the "bra" off before i drive it anymore(which will have to be next year, the weather is getting bad tonight).

You know, it's amazing how gracefully the 300Z has aged.  I mean, that body style came out in like 1989!  It still looks quite new.

[footoflead]

It does not look that old at ALl...amazing B)

[FlatBlackCaddy]

For a 15 year old design it does still stand out to this day.

In my short trip home i had a few stares. Even more second looks.

[FlatBlackCaddy]

I know many would disagree but i like this style better than the 350's(which was what i was going to get).

the main problem with the 350z...is its just plain akward looking...imo

[FlatBlackCaddy]

I'm more of a 80's / 90's smooth and sleek sports car fan, the 350 is a rather bulbous(sp?) design. Not bad(in black) but not as stunning as the 90's Z's when they hit the streets(imo).

I agree.

Oh come on, can't you put like a half inch of wax on it and get some hooey dooeys with some studded tires?
