As for the pictures you can always use the manage attachments way below the text field in the "Go Advanced" version of a post. Or you can upload the pictures to an offsite source like TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting and use the link for the forums or message boards. Copy and Paste into your post with the [IMG] before and after it

Welcome to Zville Adam! Looking forward to seeing pics of your new ride!

That's quite the brand switch, VW -> Nissan! What's your initial impression?

Anyone that knows VW, should most likely be pretty happy in a Z. VW = ghey and not reliable.

Haha. I have to admit I really do like my buddy's wife's GTI. Fun car to row through the gears.

Lol Eh, my old 5th gen Maxima is fun too, much in the same way, all modded as well. But its still FWD like the GTI is a FWD 4 door. Not too fun for me. And the GTI is turbo for how little power it makes, no thanks. Id take my old Maxima with full loaded interior and real leather.

And, I drove the MT GTI. Are you serious when you said you like that tranny? Its not sporty at all, its made for the average joe who is bordeline horrible at driving MT lol its such an easy clutch to drive it feels like its made for crusing

I had a '90 Jetta GLI, '97 Jetta vr6, and last was a 2009 GLI. The GLI was fun for what it was. The car had a stage 1 apr tune so it was fun to drive but nothing compared to the Z.
