In every vehicle I've owned, I've put blood sweat and tears into them. The Z is less than a month old to me, and she has already taken some blood and sweat.

Cleaned the car last Thursday after the rains in the last couple of weeks. Took the car to the So Cal meet in Cerritos on Saturday and met with a big bunch of great 350 and 370Z guys (along with a couple of Infiniti's, M3's, Jeff's BRZ, and a modded Prius.). Everyone was friendly and loved the Z's. Today I'm stuck at home because it's raining again.

Edit: Oh yes, oil change switching from Redline to Amsoil full synth and their special filter.

officially said goodbye to my Z this last friday and after doing alot of research these past few days or so decided that a new Z is in order for me, but that i would be patient and wait it out till the end of the year to see if anything changes for the 2014 model year...that and so i can have a bigger down payment this time around have to say though having test driven a 2013 Z i came away impressed by the improvements they've made aside from aesthetics which i know is subjective around here, but when seeing it in person it actually looked better than i thought it would.

When I saw one in person, I actually think the 13' are much nicer then I thought was.

I thought the same thing when I saw mine. I could have gone either way, fangs or running lights, but I really like the running lights.

I took one for a test drive just for fun. I must say, the mods I've put into mine make it a completely different animal. (see sig) I think the new front is cool, but until they start venting some cooling air to the brakes I'll stick with the fangs (and all my other goodies).

Otherwise the car seems pretty much identical (except for not using Potenzas anymore...Yokohama I think.)

did they put in an oil cooler yet???
