Default From STi to 370z

I finally did it - traded in my 2011 Plasma Blue Pearl STi yesterday afternoon for a 2016 PW Nissan 370z enthusiast edition. It's a change I've thought about making for the last 2 years, and timing couldn't be better with the new Canadian MSRP dropping 10k. I thought about waiting for the new Z to be released, but all the rumours pointed to a turboed car and I wanted to go naturally aspirated this time around.

Unlike my STi, I'm going to try and keep this car stock for a while. It drives much better out the box than the STi did, and looks 10x better as well!

Pics of the old ride:







Excited to be part of this new community and looking to learn as much as possible about the Z!

Welcome to the forums!
Nice older car, and Congrats on the new Z! Let's see some pics of the Z too haha

As for the newer Z, sadly that is what they are coming around to, they want a more globally economical car rather than a Japanese and American Sports/Race Car. They are pushing it down to a 2.0L turbo'd which will end up being a lot like the new Ford Mustang Fastback with Ecoboost, which runs a 2.0L turbo'd.

Good pull on the Z while it is still the Z!
