Ellz - I'm from Traralgon which is about 1 hour 40 mins from Melbourne. The good thing about living here is that my Z will be very unique. Particularly because I got Chicane Yellow. The dealer had a yellow auto as demo but some vet brought it the other week. I ordered a yellow manual. I better take a few manual driving lessons
nismostu - I'm a clean freak also and think i'd look after it enough not to need this extra protection. I think I will get them to tint the windows and i'll buy the mats at a later time. Thankfully this stuff can be added after I pay for the car to avoid LCT on these things.
I actually own an Impreza RX, but it looks like an Sti :P It's a really nice limited edition blue and will go nicely in the garage with my yellow Z. It's a great car and i'm going to keep it for the practicality reasons.
MrBMW - Congrats! I look forward to seeing some pics of your Z... and same goes for everyone else
It's good to see more people replying here ... this forum has been invaluable. That's another advantage of owning a Z over some other cars I was looking at - the support in the forums is very helpful.
irishboy - I was also gutted we didn't get the 19s, as you all probably know from my other posts. I still plan to buy them from ebay or something if I get the chance but they are still hard to come by at the moment.
