New 40th Anniversary Z

Misnomer · 11-22-2013, 10:48 AM

Hi everyone! Just over a week ago I traded my 2011 Honda Accord V6 coupe for a 40th Anniversary 370Z: perfect condition (I feel like I'm driving a new car), with just 16k miles on it. So, a year older than the car I had but in better condition and with less than half the mileage...you could make the argument that I had no choice.

While I liked the Honda I never loved it, but I already completely love my Z. Before the Honda I had a Mazda RX-8 that developed a gremlin (and broke my heart): ever since, I've been wanting another sports car. Boy did I get one!

I'm looking forward to doing some minor mods in the spring (oil cooler, new brakes, etc.) so I can track her.

(P.S. That's not me at the hood; it's the salesman.)

Thanks, everyone!

Two weeks later I'm still in the honeymoon phase with this car: every time I get in it, I smile. Heh.

Nah, tint's never been my thing. But I'll be spending enough money on other stuff for it.

You are now part of the 40th Anniversary family! Get ready for the rash of OMG's by other motorists and fellow car enthusiasts. You will not be sorry for your choice. Ask me how I know?
