LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL Yeah pretty much haha.

Well, I dunno if it's this whole wheel fiasco that's triggered it or not but I'm getting a sudden urge to move to a Vspec 2 or nur if possible. I like the idea of something that came out perfect from factory lol.

I tell you what though, buying the first model of any Nissan ain't ever happening with me again...

If you're going to move from your Z, I might as well buy an Audi or porche with my payout!

RACV are fantastic! They only deducted my excess, diff of insurance policy (as I paid monthly) and diff of rego (which for me was due in April).

Now 77K richer and time to go and break some balls and get a good price on a new Z!

Awesome! You will be able to get a genuine 2010 Coupe AND a set of 19" for all of us for that!

How much do you think our 2009's are worth now to sell?

Nah. I bought a MT6 quartz. Details in pricing thread.

Btw, the paranoia you caused me about my claim actually paid off. It made it accept that I might not get paid out....

... Then BANG!!

I got paid out

Great, I can't wait to see the colour in person.

Also if you accept the worst, things can only get better. As it stands, if they replaced your engine, you still have a Z, but now you get a new one.

Who's running bets on how long it takes to replace this one

Common! I'm not THAT bad!

I got my new 350Z roadster in Jan last year...

Then traded for my 370z at the end of April 09...

And I will get my new 370Z by the end of this April....

Actually 3 new Z's in 12 months is quite bad of me...

Ok, place your bets! Lol

Nah. I decided on a Coupe MT6.

The Roadster just didn't 'click' as well as the coupe did...

Hi guys. A bit of interesting information.

RACV just called me about if I had a spare key for the hydrolocked Z as it just sold at the auction.

I enquires the sale price and she said: $33,250!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but a new engine is about $20,000 right?

Do you think $33,250 was a steal or a mistake??

I'm curious for feedback.
