Bye Shelby Mustang GT....Hello 370Z

ZKindaGuy · 06-20-2009, 01:34 AM

Two weeks ago I decided to send the Shelby Mustang GT packing. Today after a nationwide search I finally got exactly what I was looking for...a 2009 370Z with the following features:

Touring with Sport Package
Pearl White Exterior
Persimmon Interior

It was a long journey finding the car, dickering with the dealers and getting it ferried from North Carolina to Columbus. Arrived this morning without a nick or scratch. It just makes me feel like

White & Persimmon....

! I have Monterey Blue & Persimmon but I must admit it looks really good on the white, too. Congrats on getting what you wanted!

Congratulations! Enjoy!

Tell more about your stang. What year? Why did you choose the Z over it? I would have too, but Im curious what your thoughts were.
Anyway, welcome!

Coming from a Shelby GT to this, do you have any regrets?

I'll be going from the Mach 1 to this in a week...

^ Nice stang. I've always been a huge fan of the Mach 1

@OP: grats on the Z!

That was my original color combination preference! congrats!

TacoZ · 06-20-2009, 02:16 PM

Yet another person with the color combination that I ordered while I've sat here and waited 3 months. I keep telling myself that the wait will be worth it. Congrats! Can we get pics of the Mustang?

Anyway, welcome!

Every car I bought over the past decade has been for chasing the never-ending compulsion for more HP and for showing to the public at car shows.

In the past 6 months I entered into the more laid-back golden years life-stage. I bought this 370Z just for me. It is a perfect blend of sufficient HP with just downright sexy styling, Pearl White color and the Persimmon leather . It is for my enjoyment alone and was NOT bought for any general public consumption. I just came to an epiphany over these last 6 months that I just don't require public kudos to know my car looks fantastic...
it just DOES !!
