From 350Z to 370Z! South Carolina

damskyc · 07-11-2014, 08:33 AM

Hi all,

Sadly I crashed my 2007 Grand Touring 350Z last month. Hopefully I had nothing at all but as you can see car was destroyed. Insurance paid well and quickly so I can replace the car.

I got the upgrade and bought a 2009 Touring 370Z 6MT. Interior is fancier and I like aggressive lines of the exterior. I just miss the sound of my old car (Borla exhaust) but I will probably go for an aftermarket one soon.

Welcome! I think I saw your Z at C&C at Michelin?

Welcome! How'd you roll it? Glad you're ok!

@brancky3: Not mine. C&C is the upstate Z club meeting correct?

@Arrvaxx: I missed a curve on a secondary road and ended in a field, car flipped over at the end. Air bags did their job!

C&C isn't just Z club, it's cars & coffee, there were ~620 cars last month

OK, cool. I will try to come over for the next one then.

Sounds like a commercial for Subaru..."They Survived!!" Glad you Okay and back in a Z!!

Hate to break it to you, but they only made convertible 350Z's in 2009. You had a 2008 Im sure.

damskyc · 07-11-2014, 11:55 AM

Indeed, it was a 07 my bad.

It is a nice upgrade isnt it? Much more refined. Steering is fantastic. Not quite as nose heavy. Doesnt push through the turns like my old 350 did (which still had great steering but you could feel it plow through). Added power is nice too, doubt youll even notice in basic daily driving but I used to track my 350 and 370 at Sebring at the 370 is definitely quicker. Enjoy!!
