Hi everyone

Hey guys,

I applied to be a member to this forum before I purchased my z. But it took like 3-4 months to be approved, and a lot has happened in those 3-4 months.

Long story short, I purchased a 2011 370z Nismo in June. We recently experienced a house fire and it ended up totaling my z (mainly damage to the driver side from the heat, still drive-able and whatnot but insurance wrote it off).

Ended up losing some money from the car but oh well, it is what it is.

Insurance is paying me back sometime this week so I will be in the market for another car. I'm leaning towards a 2015+ nismo, but if a good deal comes up with a pre 15 nismo I won't mind either.

Pics attached. Mods: swift springs & h&r 15mm spacers.

Welcome, very sorry to hear about the fire. Cars and property can be replaced, glad you and family are OK. As far as looking for a new car, just take your time. They are out there. Hopefully you will find one you like!!

Thanks everyone. Definitely could've been worst so I'm happy about that.

Looking forward to being apart of the family, again.

Mothball fleet! I used to drive by it everyday when I lived in Vallejo. Hope everything turns out well for you and find yourself in the cockpit of a Nismo soon!

Update: After looking around everyday for almost a month straight, I found a great deal on a 2011 nismo and picked it up today! Car is absolutely mint condition and brand new floor mats!

So glad to be apart of the family again!
