Hello Everyone!!

I am a former Z32 owner and hopefully a soon-to-be 370Z owner in the next couple weeks. I am 25, female, and have always loved sports cars.

Here are a couple photos of my old Z. I loveeed this car.

As you can see it was a Pearl White 2+2 MT 300ZX. Had the car for 5 years, and sold it in 2006.
After selling my Z on EBay I picked up a brand new Scion tC, and have driven that car since. Until last Monday when a teenage girl pulled out in front of me and totaled my car...

I am okay, but it's time for another ride. I should get my total loss settlement offer on Monday... and once negotiations are over I plan on buying a 370Z Touring 6MT +Sport +Navi & Kickplates. Not picky on the color but right now my favorites are Platinum Graphite, Pearl White, and Monterey Blue (all with black leather interior... unless I end up with white - then I would be open to Persimmon).

This site has been an amazing resource and I have been lurking for a while.
Most of my questions have been answered (especially concerning VPP since my employer is on the Plan D list). :happydance:

My only obstacle at this point besides waiting on my settlement is MY DAD. I told him today that I want a 370, and he immediately told me I belong in a Maxima or an Altima because "that car is too powerful". Hah! He's such a hater and is totally bitter because he wants a Corvette but isn't in a position to buy one right now. I need my parents to cosign for me though so I can get a really good rate.
Time to do some arse kissing and buttering them up for the next few days...

Welcome to the forum hope you enjoy your stay!!

wow! :P good luck! and welcome

Hello and welcome, hope everything goes alot better with your new ride. Hopefully the z you want. Good luck and when you get your post some pics.

Welcome to the forum. Sorry about your accident. I highly suggest you to check out Monterey Blue before making your final decision. It's really a great color and EVERY girl that saw the color, was instantly in love. You can check out pictures of Moneterey blue HERE and HERE

Good luck with your search. If you have any question(s), feel free to ask.

Thanks!! :hello:

AK, I am not going to lie the first time I saw Monterey Blue my jaw literally dropped. I am leaning a little bit. It is a stunning color and my local dealer has a few in stock.

When I got my Scion I was really set on black/black combo (my Scion had leather). And while I still think they are sexy... that car showed dirt and dust like no other! I don't knock anyone's decision to have a black Z, but it's definitely not for me.

Unfortunately the insurance co isn't going to give me a rental car indefinitely, so I am under a little pressure to find a Z in the configuration I want without having to wait on it to be shipped. That's the main reason I am flexible on the color.

I will certainly take pics when I get my new Z, StL. :tup:

Good luck with your new ride and I hope you enjoy it a lot.

PS: Tell your dad to buy a year or two old Vette, that is how I got mine. Bought a 6 month old '04 Convertible w/ a 6 sp manual and save $20,000 of the sticker. The car was brand new, very nice but now I have a 370Z and boy is it a nice one. ;)

PSS: Volky's rule!

You know normally I HATE white but it wasn't until I saw the pearl white 370Z in person that I was very impressed with it. It's just not your average white and realy looks good on our cars.

Arse kissing is complete. Dad is co-signing. :excited:

:: off to the color forums to look at more pics ::

Congrats and welcome.

Glad to see a female joining up!
Now where are all the other honeys @?!

Yay for chicks with Z's!!! ;)
When I used to have my 300ZX I swear it was just a total GUY magnet. It wasn't even intentional... guys just had this immediate positive response to my car and always wanted to talk to me. Maybe it was easier for them to break the ice if they knew anything about cars. It was kind of cool, because I heard once that men are intimidated by a woman driving a fast car... I certainly debunked that myth!

I cannot even IMAGINE the type of response I will get as a female driving a 370Z. :)

I would be even more impressed if you are getting a 6MT

Welcome! Sorry the Scion was trashed. Nice upgrade, though. RWD > FWD.
