New Z Owner

Well Saturday I decided to go car shopping. I went to my local dealership and by the end of the day I traded in my '11 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport Dbl Cab in on a '12 370Z Pearl White Touring/Sport/Nav. After going on a test drive it was all over if they got the price right on the new car and trade in. Crazy how just window shopping turned into buying a new car so fast.

On to the pics.

I went from this:

Window shopping with a Z is as good as buying, it was for me! Welcome and Congrats!

Thanks guys. Yea I will miss my truck for some things and definately that blue, it's the last year they made it in that color. But I love driving this car around so much more. Now if I wasn't stuck at work all day I could be out

Congrats on the new Z. I went to get the oil changed on my 350Z and 3 hours later drove off with a 370z. One drive in it and I was done. I damn near went in there and said here is my check book, write what ever amount you want.

The 350z was almost the same case

....like you just looking around and took a drive. Done. Only had the 350z for 6 months. Good luck and enjoy it. I know we all do.

I freaking love this car!!! It is so much fun to drive. Can't wait for the road trip this weekend to Nashville to see Chevelle!!!

Finally get to open her up a bit on the HWY.

Yea the mod bug is already bitten seeing everyone elses modded out 370's. I def want to get intake and exhaust first. Then probably a front lip. Slowly but surely this thing will begin getting modded out.

On another note I called one of the respected tint places here in town to get a quote for how much a clear bra would be on my car. I got quoted $650-$700 but to call back tomorrow when the guy who does the installs was in to get an exact quote. Does that sound high? For that much I think I will skip it and just touch up the eventual rock chips and if it gets so bad either remove the front emblem and repaint it or by that time possibly get a diff front bumper.
