370Z Nismo # 58
Took delivery of my 370Z Nismo Platinum Graphite Tuesday last week. It shipped to Birmingham, AL and I had the dealer drive it down to Enterprise, AL. I ordered one from the factory on Monday, but they saw that Birmingham took delivery on exactly what I ordered the very next day, so I lucked out. Woot. I love her, I just traded my 2007 Mazdaspeed3 for the Nissan. It's my first Nissan, and I'm actually a little dissapointed, my Mazda ran high 12's in the quartermile, so this Nissan feels a little under powered. We'll see if I can improve on it. I took pictures of the car today at work when I saw a Nissan 350z Nismo? in my parking lot. Pretty cool, it's the same color too.
Oh.. btw my Nismo is number 58 if anyone cares. I apologize for the phone pictures. It's a Google Phone.

12's huh? That is one of the fastest ones I have seen or heard of.- Put the same amount of money in mods on the Z, and my guess is the Z will be quicker.
Congrats on the Nismo, and welcome to the forums. And....... |

Congrats....but 2 questions.
1) why would let the dealer drive the car down....i assure you it was ragged on 2) how is that 350z a Nismo? it's just a 350 with front bumper

I was under the impression the 350z had a nismo version, and that this one was it. I put a question mark next to 350z nismo? cause I wasn't too sure. Also, the guy who drove it down was an 89 year old retired pastor, if he ragged on it, then oh well. They actually drove it 10 extra miles cause they took the longer way that has no 18 wheelers.

That 350 is just a 350, not a 350 Nismo (and yes there was a 350 Nismo). He just has the replica Nismo front bumper.

Geez, I interpret that as pretty brash for someone who just came on board. I don't care what you drive. |

Not to mention nobody jumping a newbie. Jesus give him a break. Nice mods on the 3. I bet that was fun as **** to drive on the street! My wife had a speed 6, it was stock, but still a blast to drive from redlight to redlight and around corners. But if you put that much money in mods for the Z it will outperform the 3. |
