Howdy from a Nissan Lover
 
Just wanted to introduce myself and say "Hi". I'm more of a reader than a poster, but if I have questions, I now know where to ask them!

I've driven both the 350z, and the new 370z and am impressed enough to buy a 370. I like the creature comforts of the Touring model, the handling and ride of the Sport model and the look of the NISMO. That said I'm buying a manual Touring plus Sport model and will have the NISMO body kit installed and professionally painted when the body kit becomes available. Of course this will be my second car and not my daily driver here in the Windy City - I would never subject it to the winters or parking abuse.

Anyway, enough said about me. Thanks for having me.

Thanks. I don't mind the baseball plug at all. White Sox fan myself.

Yesterday I had the dealer do a search, and they found just ONE with all the options I wanted (Touring+Sport+Nav+Illuminated kick plates+6mt) but it was Chicane Yellow, not my first choice. Gotta wait a little while for them to get it in tho' (a week they say :mad:).

Since I'm doing body mods that will require professional paint and installation anyway, I am toying with the idea of getting the whole car color redone in Brilliant Silver or Sterling Mist (an older Nissan color). It has a black leather interior, which I wanted.

Anyway, thinking my first mods will be a Stillen long tube intake, Berk Hi-Flo cats, Stillen exhaust, and while the front clip is off for the body mods and paint, have a set of Stillen headers installed (I guess you have to partially pull the engine for this).

Now I'm searching for a reputable paint shop to do the work. I figure repainting the car is a bit extreme, but this is a mid-life-crisis buy for me, and I want to be happy with it, so the extra $$$ and hassles really don't bother me. Anyway, I'm hyped and want to get to drivin' it.
