Brasso Comes Through: Here She Is!!!

I just picked up my car today! I am very excited! I got some good driving in today and loved the way the car performed. I was coming down memorial when a silver 350 came up behind me. He pulled up beside me and emphatically gave me multiple thumbs up haha! I sure draw a lot of attention driving the car.

I snapped a few quick pictures. They aren't the best quality, but you will get the idea. The tint level turned out awesome.

WOW! Absolutely amazing :drool:. I am very jealous of your working rear fog light. It flows very well with the whole red/red theme. I did read your thread HERE and very glad that everything worked out for you. Congratulations. Drive safe and enjoy your Z. :driving:

You're also more than welcome to make a thread in our "New 370Z Owner" section. You may get more replies there.

hey man, nice car!!! im green with envy x_x
hey do you live in douglasdale??? i think i saw you driving around lol

Looks great Ace. :tup:

I just got my 370 on Friday morning. Carbon Silver, M6. Wanted to keep the smooth lines, so opted for staying with the standard model and not sport. Sure going to be hard to stay within the 4k RPM and no hard acceleration for break-in. I live in pick-me-up country for the most part, so not so many turning their heads. I was thinking of the red colour to start with but without seeing the real paint colour, decided for the carbon silver. Any regrets on the red?

THE CAR LOOKS DROP DEAD GORGEOUS! The plate you ended up with is pretty close to mine...did Brasso set that up for you?

Yep, Brasso set me up with the plate. I was pretty impressed they took the time to set me up with the plate. I was even more surprised when they got one with 370 numbers from the registry on it. I didn't even ask them to try to get that specific plate for me. Class act over there at Brasso.

Zedhead I saw the pictures of your car it looks awesome. I am sure your having a great time with it.

I love the red. It is was the only colour for me! Definitely no regrets at all.

So far the paint is fine. There isn't a scratch or swirl mark on it anywhere. My son even commented he could see himself in the reflection on the paint. I can't tell yet weather or not it is easy to damage because I haven't tried to clean it yet. Hopefully it is not a big hassle! I got the paint protection package, which hopefully helps. The car isn't a daily driver and will stay in my garage so the risk of scratches from the environment etc... will be minimal. I have already read the riot act to everyone in my house about brushing up against it etc... haha! I haven't washed it yet, but did use a California duster on it a few times now. No scratches or swirl marks yet (cross my finger). I also have 3m rock protection on it (full bumper, mirrors, and part of the hood. I bought a car cover for it also, but it turned out to be a nylon type of material. Therefore, I will likely return it for a softer cotton type of cover. I also plan on being pretty careful washing and drying it.

That being said, I have owned red cars in the past, and they do tend to show scratches and/or swirl marks more than on other colours, aside from black. However, for me it is a personal preference. I love red and needed the car to be red lol. Plus I heard the red 370 cars have 5+ hp more than other 370 cars coloured differently (joke). :)

Great looking car. Are you going to drive it in the winter?

Nope, I will store it for the winter. That leaves me with a good 5 1/2 months or so to enjoy it before the snow hits and I park it.

Looks awesome! Congrats!

Any complaints about the car so far?

I live in Ohio and will probably do the same storage routine. Hope we have a good long summer this year. Drive safe and have fun.
