Her Name is Zelda -- Black over White Roadster
 

Greetings all -- picked up my 2010 Z Roadster last week -- still getting the after market "stuff" applied but I think she is a beauty. Got the 6 Spd Manual with all the fixin's! (Touring w/Spt Pkg & Nav Pkg).

This was a BIG trade-up from my first convertible which was a 2009 Mazda MX-5 -- I'm extremely happy with the decision. This is my FIRST Z.

P.S. About 20F when we took the pics last Sunday -- but needed to get some pics with the top down before the next snow...<grin>

Beautiful car. The white is perfect.

Sweet. My baby is almost 3 weeks old now Same exact car -- roadster/sport/nav -- except mine is Platinum Graphite. Now if only the weather would cooperate ...

Supposed to be 53 in N Virginia today -- top is coming down on the way home from the office -- heater will be probably be on high and so will the seats but there will definately be SUNSHINE!

That's a beautiful car! Congratulations on your new purchase.

Congrats look beautiful!... i'll be looking around for u today when i go out :P...

Congrats & welcome!

Looks pretty... but zelda? really? LOL... mines just called the Z

Damn i like that, very nice combo. congrats and welcome aboard!!!!!!!

Congrats on your roadster!

yea -- I also have a Hemi named "Helga".....<grin>

Beautiful, welcome to this great forum. Plenty of good people here.

Very, very nice. Love the color combo and of course, the choice of the Roadster. Once roadsters get in your blood, you may never go back to a cage.

I came from a 2006 Mazda MX-5. Great car, but a bit too easy to outgrow. I never loved that car like I love this one. I've had mine since Jan. 2.

Enjoy the ride. Remember -- that button in the middle is for the "parking cover".

Love the White!

Congrats... Love the color!!! I haven't came up with a name for mine. The color is black cherry. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I got mine a couple weeks ago. I just got the basic package. The only thing I wish it had is the homelink mirror and the extra speakers in the back. I live in Florida and drive topless like 5 times.

I love when I'm at a light and put my top down in traffic ppl just stare like their watching a scene from Transformers. lol So far I've been getting compliment from older ppl.

Yeah I like the color combo:)
congrats !!!!

Congrats.. Looks really sharp.. Nissans Navi is really sweet. Especially the hard drive & CD ripping capability. You'll love it. It's going to be in the mid 40's here this week in MN so I just may break down and take mine out of hibernation.

Thanks -- I reckon I should stop complaining about Winter to a Minnesotan:icon17:

Your's is the first red roadster I've seen -- it looks very sharp -- so you guys get to spring in like June?:icon17:

I've been riding around this week with the top down right at 39~45, as long as I have a hat, heated seats on, heater on high, I'm good.....

My daughter lives in Hampton and I'm driving out there in May on a 2 week road trip with the "Z" then heading up to the Shenandoah park for some hiking and touring of the Virginia wine country. I can hardly wait to go.

zelda? ugh...

how's the handling compared to the awesome miata mx5? you had a softtop one or a hardtop one?

Come on, Zelda the "Z" (Note I have a Ram called "Helga the Hemi":icon17:)

I've found it hard to compare the ZR to the MX-5 (it was a soft top Sport Touring as well). Obviously, the MX-5 was darn near perfectly balanced and pretty much is a "street legal go-kart" -- I had driving confidence in that car that I don't yet have in the Z -- THAT SAID, everyone I've spoken to said once you get thru the break-in period, and just start driving the car like a sports car should be driven, both the handling and the confidence will come.....stay tuned....:driving:

Sounds like a greart road trip -- I think our first road trip is to "Z Days" in NC the end of May -- I think there is a separate thread on that event, you should check it out.

That is a nice color. I went back and forth between the Black Cherry and the White. May regret the darker color when it comes to keeping her clean and road chips - but for now I like it. I don't think there is an ugly 370Z - but some jump out at me more than others.

Sweet looking Z - enjoy.

I got Black Cherry as well! Congrats! I was trying to think up a name toooo-let me know what you end up with. I am drawing a blank. :confused:

When are the "Z" days in NC???? I live here! :driving:

20-23 May 2010 -- there is a separate thread in the Mid Atlantic section of the forum -- Zdayz - Eat, Sleep, Z - May 20-23, 2010

thanks! I will be missing this but look forward to next year-y'all have fun!

:driving::driving:

Nice car...but "BIG TRADE UP".... I don't think so. Objectively speaking there pros and cons for both cars, although yes I would say the Zed squeazes out a few more pros. In my opinion I wish the Z had a folding hardtop roof, although the ragtop I must say does look great. Congrats.

Thanks NickNick -- some "context" to "BIG TRADE UP" -- $25K Car -> 46K Car; 167 HP -> 323 HP; 2L -> 3.7L; just to name a few. Don't misunderstand, I'm not disparaging the MX-5 -- great roadster, great feel, but different league than my Z Roadster.

Just got back from ZDayZ, what a blast -- car performed magnificently!

I think a hardtop might be a decent option, but not sure what it would do to the car from a weight & balance perspective.....

Thanks for the kind words.

white shows the lines well in the z

:hello:
