Default Just picked up my Z and drove it 1200 miles home

Hi Everyone,

I picked up my Z yesterday in CT and immediately drove it 1200 miles home to Birmingham, AL. I'm pretty excited to be in the Z. I've had mostly AWD/turbo cars in the past with the exception being two S2000's (Ap1 & Ap2). I was never a fan of the 350Z's dynamtics, but to me at least the 370 feels like a totally different car. The car is a 2014 370 w/ Touring+Sport+Navi. It had 2700 miles on it when I picked it up, and im sitting at just below 3900. I hope that I get to drive it as much as I'd like to because it really is so much fun. Looking forward to getting to know the car and you guys better!


Kid appears to approve (or at least she's on the fence about Daddy's new purchase!)

Congratulations!

Glad your purchase worked out and you made it back to B'ham in good shape.

Enjoy your Z and happy modding!

I'm still grinning. LOL I was really surprised at how comfortable the car is to ride in on the highway. Sure, it's firmer than a family car, but it really hugs the road and is fairly quiet to boot.

Welcome and congrats on your purchase! You will fall in love with it. As a new owner myself back in August and with 5K on its clock now you will see the car settling and coming into its own with some miles. Driving it 1200 miles did it some good for sure, imo.
