Old Guy with a New Nismo!
 

Hi Everyone! I've had a new '17 370Z Nismo (Mag black, 6M) for about 3 weeks. In searching out a forum I found this one and it seems to be populated by a good group.

I'm not new to Nissans - I've owned two Datsun 510s, two 240Zs, and a 3.5 Altima Coupe over the years (I'm not young! LOL). The Nismo is a pre-retirement gift to myself. It will be garaged during our nasty Canadian winters and thoroughly enjoyed during the summer. When I was 19 I bought my first 240Z, a brand new '73 (did I mention I'm old?), and this new Z has given me many of the same feelings that I enjoyed way back then and puts a smile on my face every time I get in it. This car has the attitude I love in a sports car!

My contributions here will likely be few and far between but I look forward to enjoying this forum, and my Z, for years to come.

Welcome. This is a good forum with lots of great information.
Occasional Internet crap, but not very often.
Enjoy!!

Congratulations. Picking mine up on August 10th having sold my modded 350z in Jan. Cannot wait. Gone for pearl white myself. Looks like you have a nice example.

Congrats; looks good!

Welcome and congrats! Excellent choice but I am slightly biased.....lol

Welcome! I think you'll find this forum to be one of the more active, connected, and informative car communities.

Welcome :hello:, from another old guy. Mine was a retirement gift from my lovely wife. (she makes the payments) Looks like you are a real Nissan guy, enjoy, it looks great!

I'm about the same vintage as you, probably a little older. Got my 240Z in 1970. Since then I've had a 260Z, two 280Z's, two 280ZX's, a 280ZX Turbo, and now I'm on my second 370 Z. The 240Z was a blast. After that, the Z car took a steady march toward mediocrity as it increasingly became a bloated GT luxo-cruiser and I bailed after the Turbo. The 370Z, however, is a great car. It provides the same fun driving experience (and then some) as that good old 240Z.

The thread title makes me think of this:
