ZOMG! One more sleep!

prichardson · 05-06-2010, 07:07 PM

I started looking for a new car over a year ago from a long list of candidates. I must've started settling on the Z about a year ago because I found an insurance quote dated May 2009. I made the decision to buy in early 2010 and placed the order at the end of February.

I got the call on Tuesday that it was in! I went down after work to have a look and even fired up the engine.

They're prepping it now and tinting the windows. I pick it up tomorrow afternoon!!

I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve! Times a million!

2010 Carbon Silver (aka PG) / Persimmon, Touring 6MT + Sport + Nav + Tint

Gah! I hope I can get some sleep! This will be my first new car in just under 10 years.

My excitement was only slightly dampened to see another new Carbon Silver 370Z sitting right beside it (though with black interior, no Nav) on the lot waiting to be picked up by someone else in Ottawa. D'oh! I've still only 370Z's 3 other times on the road here in Ottawa, but I always new year by year there'll be more (but that's for another thread...)

lol I know what u mean. Mine was after >13 years with my trusty Pathfinder which I still have and intend to keep for my winter drive and towing my boat. Imagine sister engine 3.3L engine 186HP before and now to 3.7L 334HP! after all these years.
I am a bit surprised you didnt go for the "new" 2009 models which would have net you some savings

I kinda liked the idea of getting exactly what I wanted. And the fact that I'd be getting one right off the factory floor built exactly to my specs made it even more tempting. I just ask that no one tells me how much I could have saved.

I'll get some pics up once I figure out how...

Congrats on the Z!

Did you manage to get any sleep? I remember I lost sleep for a day or two. I was ready to buy it on a Monday, but the car wasn't PDI'ed when I came to pick it up that evening. Had to then wait until Wednesday. Drove me nuts!

I did manage to get some sleep. Even better - I dreamed I was driving it! Today I got to drive it in real life - she's all mine!

I've named her 'Sexy Bitch!'
