It's been a great run guys

sonic370 · 11-13-2012, 09:05 PM

Just wanted to say thanks and it's been a great run and a fantastic time on the forum. But i plan on staying a member and keeping in touch.....

Had to make a tough choice today with a growing family and traded my beloved 370 in today on a new Maxima. But with the maxima it wasn't so bad. It's a pretty darn good 4 door sports car. even with front wheel drive and cvt trans.
the paddle's are a nice touch.

i got the model with the sports package that came with 19in wheels which look will close to the 19in rays on the 370. the car is quick, well built and drives great. anyway guys thanks for all the good advice the last couple of years.
i'll be around.... because i love the 370 brand and won't to keep current on the car......................

Maxima's are nice cars...A 4 seat Z car....And they look Good too...

Nice trade...I can NEVER go back to FWD though. Atleast you stayed in the family and the Maxima is sexy!

Mod that baby

Big restyle next year if you could wait. Current big rebate is tempting, though. Good car, either way.

You're that guy from the commercial who stretches his Z out. That commercial makes me so sad.

sonic370 · 11-13-2012, 10:26 PM

Yeah at least I kept it in the family. The 5 grand rebate was hard to turn
down. It's not a Z but the cars got some balls 290 hp
but the fwd will take some getting use to. Coming from the 7at
I thought I would be Disappointed but really it's not all that bad.

Hey, I had a Maxima before my 370Z, a few things, either get the Stillen or K&N intake system, THEN go on eBay and look up Altima y-pipe, its a company called RacingLine, from Canada, they make a cat delete y-pipe, no CELs great quality, and lastly, if you want a Stillen under drive pulley, hit me up, I have one brand new in the box!

Enjoy the Maxima, I miss mine at times, it sounded amazing with my mods and it was plenty quick!

You made a good decision for your family. You'll be back in a Z in the future. I love the new Maxima's. Any pics of the new wheels?

Cool wheels, but I actually meant pictures of the his new car (wheels). I thought about my mistake after the fact. Thanks for the pictures though! Sweet car!

LakeShow · 11-14-2012, 12:06 AM

Congrats man, got a Max as well. Great car for its purpose, and not to mention its got some balls in that V6. The leg room and head room is great and the trunk space. We got a G37 also and it's just so tight and it longer in overall length.

Magic Bus · 11-14-2012, 02:51 AM

Sonic, You made the right choice for the greater good. Did the same thing for my family years ago, never regretted the decision as kids and a good wife brings happiness as well. Left a 280Z back then and guess what??? Now have a 370Z.

Work hard, be a good dad and the Z will come back to you!!!

Mr&Mrs · 11-14-2012, 06:20 AM

Sorry you had to let your Z go but family is first.
