Default Just picked up my black 370z

Hello everyone I am a new 370z owner here in DC.

I just picked up my black/black manual 370z with touring and sport packages. I am loving the car so far. Unfortunately I have not had time to do much other than go for a little spin. Next up are some mods, it's a matter of figuring out what to do and in what order .

I put a few pics, the first couple were at the dealership and the last couple were after I got her parked at home.

Let me just say the rev matching is pretty interesting, it takes a bit to get used to, but it really does work well when you stop fighting the system (I am so used to rev matching myself that I had to consciously stop trying to do it).

Welcome and Congrats!!


Beautiful color... it's like a mirror.

I'm not a big fan of our door handle color, but it seems to give a nice contrast on the black.

Enjoy!!

----AB.

Congrats on the new ride. I got a black as well. Do make sure you get clear bra. U know how the roads are here in DC/VA/MD areas.

Yeah that's a great idea, I will definitely look at getting that done. The roads in this area are definitely a mess, heck I am most scared for my rims with the potholes in DC.

ak6ar, you should check out the Mid-Atlantic Z Owner's Club and come to one of our meets!

This Saturday, we're in Fairfax, VA... 12599 Fair Lakes Circle, Fairfax, VA‎
We meet at the Starbucks there.

Next Saturday, 6/4, we're in Columbia, MD... 6111 Dobbin Rd, Columbia, MD
We meet in the parking lot at Target there.

And we pretty much alternate between those two locations every Saturday at 10am.
