Soon to be a 2010 Roadster Owner

TalismanIII · 01-24-2010, 01:59 PM

Hi Guys,

Looking forward to taking delivery of a 2010 Roadster, in Canada the colour is "Black Rose", where in the States it is "Black Cherry". It will have the wine interior with the bordeaux top.

I went with the roadster as many people out there feel that it gives you the best experience in a sports car.

I've looked around the site a little, and it seems that the aftermarket supports the 2009 - 2010 coupe well. I suppose that the roadster, since it was just released will have many options to come.

Can any one tell me if the 350Z roadster was well supported by the aftermarket? I will probably want to change a few things on my 370Z Roadster.

Thanks - Once I take delivery in mid march I wlll post pics....

Congrats. What options are you planning to get? I've had mine for about a month now and I love it. I expect it will be even more fun once the weather warms up a bit, but with the heated seats it's still pleasant to drive with the top down even when it's in the mid 50s(f)

I ordered it loaded, sport package, navi. I'll be interested to see how the stereo sounds with the top down.

I'm not that picky about my audio but it sounds fine to me. The Nav directions are clearly audible with the top down at highway speeds so no worries there. Only down side is you can't use the voice commands with the top down

congrats!

Congrats on your pending purchase -- you are gonna love this car. Although I've only had mine topless on the road a couple of times so far (thanks to ol'man Winter) -- I think you'll find the sound is fine -- my opinion is, although sound is important, it is secondary to sunshine & wind...<grin>

Although I haven't yet done much yet with "internal" aftermarkets, from what I've seen so far there seems to be plenty out there. I'm probably just gonna start with intake & exhaust, and maybe some "summer tires"....

Welcome to the group -- I'm a newbee to the Z family, but enjoying it so far.

I think the audio is more than adequate with the top down and actually quite good with it up. This is easily the best Bose system I've ever had. I hated all previous ones. Good luck and enjoy the ride.

Congrats.... You'll love the car! I just took delivery on mine and its in storage until the snow melts... We'll likely both start driving ours at the same time!

TalismanIII · 02-17-2010, 12:02 AM

Fisherg,

I'm a lot farther north than you might think compared to you, although it was 32F here today!

I was at the dealership two weeks ago and they told me my car was in production!! Only 4-6 more weeks! Sweet!

I'll probably be posting more questions soon, thanks for the welcome notes! (and some pics once I get it, or should I say, her!!)
