Proud new owner of a 2011 Solid Red NISMO #31!

Hi All,

Bought my new Solid Red(Speeding ticket Red) NISMO Z from Metro Nissan in Montclair almost a month ago, live in South OC though. Been loving the ride everyday and am thoroughly satisfied with what Nissan has done with the Z34.

This is however not my first Z, a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...i used to be seen behind the wheel of a 1987 Crimson Red 300ZX, after that it was a 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse then a 2006 Scion tC. Feelz good to be back where I belong.

Here's the new wheels....

Thanks man. You probably did see me, I was driving around McArthur between 6 - 6:30. Not sure if i saw you, the only other Z i saw in the area was a 350Z roadster that was parked next to me.

About the suspension, I did check and saw no evidence of the hated spacers on my coils. Can't imagine how bad the ride would have been with them on. I'm glad you guys had a sticky on the forum about it otherwise I might have never known to check in the first place.

Oh and thank you for the warm welcome everyone!

Yeah that was you for sure then, I was in a Prius so you wouldn't have noticed LOL

Keep an eye on the Socal regional section as well for upcoming meets/ canyon runs.

Welcome again!!

Nice ride

Congrats

Wow! That's what I'm talkin' about! I have been missing something in the NISMO body style (i.e. no fangs)! That's the problem with dealership (or even NissanUSA website photos) - I need to go see the real thing.

ZCarMan · 01-16-2011, 07:08 AM

Congrats! Thats a sweet NISMO!

antfd3s · 01-16-2011, 08:05 AM

Congrats on your purchase. That car is a big deal, enjoy.
Btw how does the Z drive compared to the Scion? Do you feel any difference in power/handling etc?.

c41006 · 01-16-2011, 08:07 AM

Congrats

Thank ya. Dude, I don't know what the fluck I was thinking giving up my Scion for a Red 370Z NISMO.

I mean it had 4 wheels, 4 cylinders, 4 seats, 4 corners...., a catalytic converter that was throwing codes and a broken rear hatch....uh what more could you want? A poke in the eye, perhaps?
