Hello everybody!

I have wanted a 370Z for years. I almost bought a new one when they first came out in 09 but my common sense kicked in and I decided to put my money to better use. Since then I have gotten engaged, married, bought my wife a 13 accord, bought a house, and furnished said house. I also managed to pay off all of my student loans (graduated in '10).

I returned from my deployment a couple months back and decided the time had come for us to get a second car. Since it was a second car, specifically my car, it could be impractical. I started looking at Z's again, specifically something with the persimmon interior, but my reasonable side would not let me spend close to $40k on a new one. I randomly looked on cars.com and saw a black one with the persimmon interior available for sale like 10 miles from my house. I went and saw it and fell in love- touring, sport, 6-speed, nav, lighted door sills, carpeted floor&trunk mats, back-up camera, trunk cover. Best of all, it only had 5,800 miles and was 30% cheaper than a new one :happydance: Made the deal, waited for the title to come in from Nissan, which took almost a month :eek: but I finally have it!

I have already installed the Gt-R start button and clear lenses. My WC latheworks is on order, and am looking at exhausts and an intake right now.

Congrats on the new car! And great job getting the best color combo ever offered :tiphat:

Love that interior color.

So the interior color was the only thing that I was not going to settle for. I actually really wanted the persimmon with white exterior, but the black does contrast much better than the white would have

Agreed, if given the option when i got mine there would be no looking back!

Seek and you shall find. Congratulations on your search finally coming into fruition. The one option that I failed to find during my search is the persimmon interior. I know it is slightly harder to clean (denim stains for example) but beautiful none the less.

Finally installed my WC Lathe Werks shift knob.

-Stainless steel sphere
-2 small grooves on the bottom end
-Engraved shift pattern

Love it! Just be ready to destroy your stock knob while removing it.
