Default 2011 Evo X MR to 2012 370Z
Just posting for the post time to say hello.

While visiting the local Nissan dealership for a Frontier for my son, I saw the Z and asked for a test drive. After the test drive, I went back home, picked up the Evo, and traded it in. Really liked the MR, but in my opinion, the Z is a better car. Nothing fancy, but it's a 2012 Base 370Z, 6 speed, in black. Oh, and my son got a Frontier too.

Anyway, I'll be poking around the forums.

Welcome! I went from an 08 EvoX MR to a 12 Nismo. Both great cars, just different. Enjoy!

The MR was modded but the SST just never shifted right. There are a few folks in the Open Source community working on it, but it became an annoyance. The car was fast modded but doesn't compare to the 370Z. I don't regret it one bit. my close friend said the MR was to juvenile The same guy said he didn't like the Z until I bought one and he drove it. Now he's a believer.

Yeah, he liked the Evo but always wanted a pickup truck. Nissan really has the market covered with the Frontier. Here's a picture of the truck the day he picked it up and one of the family.
