New guy...

ATLsentra05 · 01-09-2013, 11:16 AM

Hey everyone,

New member here from Atlanta, Georgia. Currently driving an '05 Nissan Sentra. It is my dream to own a Z. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Zs! I'm finishing high school right now. I hope after I finish college I will have the dough to buy one of these badass cars.

It is really my biggest and only dream to own a beautiful 370Z. Love the history behind these cars, the story of how it was designed, the performance, looks, exhaust note EVERYTHING!!! The Z line is truly one of if not the greatest sports cars ever made. It is sad to see the other Japanese car companies discontinue their sports but we still have the best one, the Z!

Lol now I'm just ranting but I just wanted to say hello and I love the cars on this forum. Most of them are just SO NICE

Thanks guys..

Jonathan

Wel-come aboard ...

Welcome. Have you thought about a 350z?

ATLsentra05 · 01-09-2013, 01:32 PM

Yes I have actually but I love the 370s SO much more.

My plan is to hopefully get through college in the next 4 years and get out and start my career-based job. (This part is a stretch) Buy a 350z to use as my daily driver because my sentra by then will probably be worn out (she has 172K right now on the odometer) and purchase my dream 370z as a fun/evening/weekend car.

I'll see what my budget holds for the future but that is what I would LIKE to do. Or I could just keep up with the sentra as my DD and still buy the 370. In 4 years the prices should come down a little more, and hopefully I can find a gently used one..

Clean Sentra from looks of your Avatar.

Check out the Local ZAtlanta car clubs. They are very active in local car events and have a fairly large group that meets up regularly. Look up ZAtlanta on Facebook as well.

Have you ever heard of 2JRacing? A good buddy of mine owns that shop and they make those Sentras UNBELIEVABLY fast.

Stay focused on your goals, I have a feeling it's going to work out for you!

Thanks man. Appreciate the words. People hate on me all the time because I drive a sentra. But I'm thankful to have a car in the first place.

I'll keep the car clubs in mind. I go to a meet every thursday and saturday with a couple of other sentras but wish I could go to "bigger" events. Especially if they're Z events!

I found out about 2JRacing a couple of weeks ago.. Badass cars man. Don't have the dough right now but may look into some custom stuff for the future.

I see you're in douglasville. Not too far apart. I'm actually located in powder springs. I would LOVE to get together with some Z enthusiasts some time.

Thanks buddy! I really appreciate the kind words. I hope so man. I really want a 370Z so bad. I wanna be that guy that buys his gem dream car and stick with her and keeps her like new his whole life. If I get the 370Z she will only recieve the best quality care and I will keep her forever! (within my power of course)

Don't let those fools talk smack about the Sentra! I really really like your future plans man. As a matter of fact, I had those exact same plan a couple years ago. I wanted to get myself through college, get a decent career job soon after and pick up a 370z and keep my Sentra SE-R Spec-V as a winter beater. Well here I am almost a year after I graduated college at 23 and I have my 370z and the winter beater still in my possession. And a couple motorcycles I bought in before the Z but that's beyond the point lol. Stay focused man and keep your eye on the prize, you'll get there before you know it!
