Default Hello from the Pacific N.W.

Greetings ALL. Fairly new owner and fairly new to 370Z.com. July5th was my purchase date. After being with one car for a year it was time. The wife wanted to go look at the new Nissan Juke. While she was doing the paperwork I made the mistake and took a wander outside. I first fell for the Datsun Z in 1974 walking home from school. I tried to tell my father I saw a Ferrari on a car lot since it was a car I hadnt seen before and was actually a right hand drive with the side mirrors on the fenders. Of course he drove me down to see it again and I got educated. Over the years with the body styles and performance changes I feel this all came together with me on the lot the day after the 4th of July. I purchased new the 2011 Sport Tour Brill Silver. My one condition was the 20" Niches that were on a roadster so if I could have the swap it would be a go. Who's to argue with a guy wanting two cars! Well after a short negotiation we drove off with two! I can say after owning more than 20 cars in my life from Camaros to Vettes this is the total package! Since the purchase I tinted the windows to 20%, dropped in the Typhoons and currently deciding on Borla vs AAM Exhaust. Really enjoy the lower sound on those two. I really enjoy the site and all the great cars, diys, and comments. Thanks, DK

Congratulations and welcome! I've seen a few couples go with a Juke and a 370Z. You'll be happy with the AAM exhaust if you're looking for the lower rumble. I was the same way about the 240Z myself when growing up. Took a while to get here but I now have my Z and the Wife has her Frontier.

I forgot to mention I also have AAM HFCs so that adds a bit as well.
