Now for some pics and a little background info. I bought the car through Nissan's VPP pricing provided by Robert_Nash (thanks!). I had been looking everywhere for a PG 6MT touring/sport/nav and there was none to be found in the country at the time. I finally decided to pull the trigger on a Monterey Blue which apparently was the only 6MT touring/sport/nav model with in a few states. The trick was that it was in a dealership in Dallas and I was in Houston. The dealer offered to drive me there and for me to drive back as opposed to paying for shipping. I did just that and have been having fun with the car ever since.

Pickup day



Literally the next day after I signed the papers, got rear ended stopped at a red light... the car behind me got rear ended and hit me. I'm still not sure how the other car didn't see a line of cars stopped for the read light... I'm just glad the car he had was insured because apparently he didn't have a driver's license...



The car behind me got hit hard, then it hit me... I got the car to the local nissan bodyshop the next day. It took them over a week to fix it and their paint guy was horrible, leaving some dust particles in the clear coat.



20% tint



FI Exhaust. I was a little worried about how close the tips are to the bumper but now after 22k miles, I haven't had any problems at all (knock on wood).



Stillen G3 Intakes.



EVO-R CF B-Pillars



Backup Camera installed from the plug and play harness group by. Very simple install.





Second Skin sound deadening the doors. I did the trunk too but didn't take pics of that.





Volk GT-S, just got them put on last Friday (2/11/2011)









Z snowed in during the superbowl week storm



Hottest day last year
