Newb from middle TN

shirokenkami · 10-29-2016, 09:28 AM

As the title indicates, I'm a FNG(Fat New Guy, lulz) from middle TN about roughly 90 miles from Nashville. I'm a LONG time lurker(about 6 months of poking around before I even bought a Z). I had a shortlist of cars that I was looking at and the Z made the most sense economically, besides the Vette that is and there are just too many of those on the road. I wanted some originality and the Z definitely has that. I'd venture to say I'm one of the biggest members on here at 6'3" and 340lbs. Yes I can get in and out just fine AND quite easily before you ask. I'm flexible you see... My Z is a 2013 Touring with Sport package in Magnetic Black named Halle(I have a thing with naming my cars after the hottest actresses, to me, in Hollyweird) and she is my ebony goddess. I snagged her for $21k with 45k miles on the odo, which I thought was decent. I'll try to upload a image below but I'm just now becoming acquainted with your systems.

Okay, got pics! (finally!!!) Had to get back into my old Photobucket account, lol.

The day I took her home!

The other day after a thorough cleaning.

Trunk or Treat.

Late night run on Centerhill Lake.

Hello. I too am new to the forum & to owning a Z I have a 2015 370Z Sport Tech that I bought new (never sold at the dealership) in May. It is metalic black. I too live in Middle Tennessee. Springfield to be exact. I am glad to "meet" another local Z owner/enthusiast. I am hoping to meet other Z owners who might like to get together from time to time to cruise, race (legal) or just hang out with like minded enthusiasts.
