Hi All

Hi All,
New to Z ownership and this forum.
First a short about me; I'm a software developer in Austin, Texas.
Enough about me...

I have wanted a Z for a long time (think Datsun) but just couldn't afford it or couldn't get around to it.

So last July I decided to test drive one and liked it so much decided to pull the trigger in early October. Gave them the down payment on a Wednesday and had exactly what I wanted delivered on the next Friday. (gotta plug Southpoint Nissan in Austin, great buying experience.)

Long story short; 2013 370Z Touring Roadster, black/black (too sexy), sport package, nav package, splash guards, illuminated kick plates, premium carpeted floor mats, carpeted trunk mat.

I have had many sports cars, starting in the 60's, and I have to say this is the best one I've had, EVER! Acceleration: great! This car corners better than I can drive. And I'm not even going to get into the number of complements that I get.

Speaking of which, I was driving from a Houston air show back home to Austin, doing about 90 on I-10. A guy in a brand new Porsche pulled up beside me, honked his horn to get my attention then gave me a big smile and a double thumbs up! How cool is that? Who knew Porsche guys like Zs too...

see attached files.
