So many options for the intro, I didn't know where to post! I've been trolling for a little bit, but so far it seems you guys are a good group, certainly not as jerky as the motorcycle forum community.

Anyway, I've never had a sports car, so I decided on a vert 370Z. I had too many toys plus a ford escape daily driver, so I had to let something go......so I gave up my GSXR 1000 and all the track days associated with it (it was a 10 year hobby, finally decided to give it up)

Here's me on my old R1, dang, i'm going to miss this:


I picked up a 2010 Roadster Base Model with 11,500 miles, 6 speed. Oh, and it came with a Greddy Spectrum Elite Cat back exhaust

I'm debating if I should go back and look for one with the Sync Rev (SRM?) because I love to rev match on my bikes, but I can't heel-toe for the life of me.

Here's the first pic, I've already got a Kenwood DDX419 head unit and have integrated the steering wheel controls. If I stay with this one, I'm really looking for anyone willing to trade the 19" Rays wheels that comes with the sport packages.

BTW, I created a cool background out of the "Z" emblem for my head unit, its 800x600 and works perfect with my Kenwood, thought I would share.

Cheers!
