Just like to say Hi.

My Name is Geert and I am a new Z owner and a new member. Just got a 2010 Roadster + Nav with 70 000km (43500Miles) on the clock. No mods, and I am unlikely to modify.

Maybe a few visual changes, the wheels have a bit of damage so a fix and re-spray on those, no colour decision yet.

So far the car has been great. Previous cars worth mentioning include a 928S ,Prelude (2.2 non vtec) and a CLK320 all were great at the time. But I really like the Z and it probably contains all of the best features of the mentioned cars and much more.

They actually do, however I bought this vehicle in a different region and am waiting for re-registration and new plates, but we get a 21 day permit in the meantime. This means I can drive the Z properly, no worry about cameras. Our traffic police is lazy, no active policing.

Actually fitted my plates yesterday

Most of it true, I can assure you, just look the fences in the picture. But if you take out the crime, it's probably one of the best countries to live in.

I used to live in Tampa (many moons ago, early 80ties). Loved it there though

Congrat's on the roadster and welcome to the Forums! Hate to say it, but they put the steering wheel on the wrong side.
