Default The big upgrade

WOOTT!!! Just picked up a 2009 370Z 6spd blade silver with just 32k miles.
Very very big upgrade for me.

Started out with 04 MR2 Spyder, then 89 S13 SR'd, broke those two so i got a $500 86 Nissan pickup, then I just got this last Wednesday...lol

I LOVE my 370Z. Everything about it is just sooo awesome.
I dont know what else can get better than this other than a GT-R.
I dont even think i would do anything to it. Just having it to begin with already makes me look like a baller...lol.

This car is AWESOME!

Congrats I came home on leave and bought mine, put a few hundred miles on it and left. Been ordering parts ever since :P If I weren't married, I'd probably would have had more than my fair share of STD's within a week's time. I saw two well endowed beautiful women totally stop their conversation just so they can try and make out who was in the Z. Thank God my Wife is as hot as the car. Granted the car has a tail pipe, but I would have to do a side plank to tap dat a$$; Besides, I think the Wife probably does a better job. Seriously, all kidding aside, hope you enjoy your new ride.

Congrats and welcome!

Take it easy up there in WA, the summer performance tires don't grip very well as the temperature starts getting below 50F, and get really bad below 40F.

It's not too bad yet, but definitely don't drive it like a sports car, just drive like you would any normal RWD car and you'll stay out of trouble, unless it starts to rain... Hope you managed to enjoy the sun we've had the past couple days!

Oh man, I am doing the same thing pretty much, upgrade wise. Drove a 90 honda accord for the last 9 years, just picked up a 90 mazda b2600 4x4 for the snowy north idaho winter months. My 2012 Base + sport MB 6speed will be here in 4 short (lol.. long!) weeks! Man i gotta stop looking at these threads....

TY all ^_^
yeah shes gonna be treated right...most of the time. Definitely no drifting. Tires too expensive and i dont feel like blowing up any more motors especially this one.

I was supposed to get something that I wouldnt be able to race to save money but instead I ended up getting this...lol
I figured Id get depressed for the rest of my life if i didnt go with a sports car.
I almost got a 350Z but he kept pushing me to get a 370Z.
Damn I am so glad he did..lol
