New member, new Z!

Tribalpinoy91 · 05-14-2012, 04:57 PM

Hello all I'm excited to join another car forum, my other one being club3g(Mitsubishi Eclipse). To say the least haven't been on there in awhile and seeing how I'm picking up my new z34 as my daily driver this Saturday, I think it's safe to say that I'll be a permanent resident here!

My family or I have never owned a Nissan car before but we have tasted:

Mercedez-Benzx2
BMWx2
Ford
Mitsubishi
Cadillac
Honda
Chevrolet
Lexus....
and now NISSAN.

So, nice to meet you all...now time to start reading!

Edit: new photos!

Sooo after about nearly a month of waiting for my PW Z to arrive, I want to say a few things; First, seeing pictures of the 18's I was really worried about the size. I thought they looked really small for the car. In person however is the complete opposite, They are indeed a great size in terms of road noise and tire costs. Secondly, After driving a new 3 series and Z4, I can accurately state that the Z's drive is akin to that of Bavaria Motors. The steering feel is real tight, suspension rigid but DD worthy. Thirdly, the interior quality I would rate an 8/10 in similar quality to a Z4, the door plastics and dash are near identical in feel. Thirdly, After reading complaints/countless threads on cabin noise, I was concerned. After driving PA highway roads and town roads, I can say that interior noise is at the same level to that of my brothers 01 civic on 17s with a side profile of 45. In conclusion, if noise was ever a concern, turn on the radio. No, you don't have to blast it either like countless others have stated here..

P.S. Will post pictures tommorrow after I get it all clean and detailed!
