Time to move on from the Z...

Beautiful car! Funny, at over twice the price, I still see more C7 in town than I do Z's. And C6's everywhere. That is part of the reason I went with the Z.

Here in the Charlotte Area, Seems like it's closer to 50/50 between the Vette and Z owners. Don't see a whole lot of Z Roadsters like I had, but see quite a few Z Coupes on the road around here.

Beautiful Grand Sport! I went the same way (Z to GS) back in December - you're going to love that thing!

gorgeous car... I think they went slightly overboard with the interior accents and now it looks like a 17 year old ricer from 1997 got hold of it. Coco Chanel.

Very bold seats. I like the blue stripes with the grey paint. Congrats, looks like a fun drive.

Looking good!

Beautiful car.... would love to hear about how you like the manual transmission and an overall review. are they more reliable these days?

Being a nut for blue/silver/gunmetal shades, I almost went nuts when GM unveiled the Grand Sport Collectors Edition with the Watkins Glen Gray/Tension Blue color scheme last fall. I was lucky enough to find one still available with a manual this late in the model year. Drove down to Atlanta last week to make the trade and bring this guy home:

Anyways...I've lurked here a lot more than I've posted over the years, but got a lot of good, helpful info here! Kinda been a shame to see Nissan continue to stand pat on the Z all this time. Hopefully they'll give it some fresh attention someday, and not let it die on the vine! (and here's hoping that any new one still comes with a manual trans, too

)

Oh...and if anyone has been scouring the Interwebs for a well-kept, low-mileage, Gun Metallic 370Z Roadster (Touring + Sport)...you might want to look up the used car inventory @ Hendrick Chevrolet in Duluth, GA.

Never seen that trim before on a Vette but I love it.The grey/blue color combo is absolutely beautiful!
