Hello from Utah

ScooterN2 · 01-19-2009, 01:44 PM

Hello,
I have been lurking for a couple of weeks, but wanted to introduce myself. I live in the Salt Lake City area. I have not owned a Z before, but hope to soon. I ordered one last week and it should arrive (from Japan) about mid February. It is Black/Black touring, 6MT, Sport. I test drove one with the 7AT, but guess I'm too old school for the automatic. The price will be about $2,000 under MSRP. I'll post some pics once I get it.

A little more about me...
I am 53 years old. Currently driving a 2003 Subaru WRX, which I plan to keep (carrying skis in the 370 might be a challenge). Also ride a Ducati GT1000 motorcycle. I have previously owned a 1993 Corvette ZR1 (400HP), so it will be interesting to see how the 370z compares.

Nice! Welcome to the forums. Thats the color combo I originally wanted but I was too impatient and went for a silver one on the showroom.

There are four Nissan dealers in the Salt Lake area and they each received one 370Z. I was told they didn't have any control over the cars they recieved. Color choices were red, blue, black, and silver, but none had the option combo I wanted. Kind of hard to wait though.
