Hi

Hi everyone, I'm going to be a member of the 370z family soon. I ordered a hakone white (which how it's called in Canada) with Frost int, Sport pkg. and Navi . 6 MT. I was going to get the Perssimon int., but it's so gay in Canada that white exterior only comes with Frost int. BTW, the car is going to delivery in the first week of March. 1 more month to go, and this month will be painful. I'm loving the car and hope I can pick her up earlier.

Just one thing that I don't like about the Z is the shift boot. I think it sits too high that makes it look long and lost the sporty look. Does anyone know if the problem can be solved If I'm going to change the stock shift knob into a ball shaped shift knob?

Many Thanks!

Yeah, it's a pretty long time to wait which I placed my order in late December.....Because it is a 2010 model, the waiting time has to be longer. And I just received a notice from the dealer that the Z will be built in Feb. For sure I will post some pics of her after I picked her up. Thanks for your comment anyway.

He asked me where am I in Canada, that's why I was wondering if he is in Canada too, no offense. The location ppl filled in doesn't have to be true. That's why I'm asking. Just don't know what's so funny for you.

Welcome and congratulations! White looks great on the Z. The next month will be tough yes but it'll be worth the wait.

I think if I understand your question correctly, that a short shifter would address your concern about the shifter being so high. If you conduct a search on "short shifter" here in the forum you'll find info on what is available and any concerns about using one. B&M makes a short shifter for the 370Z and I've seen several vendors on this forum selling them. Good luck!
