Default Bye Bye Titan, Hello Z

Another newb...

I've wanted a Z since I used to see them all over the place in SoCal growing up there in the 90's. A buddy's dad had a TT that was just sick. They're less common here in Utah with the winters we get but I still see enough of them around to remind me what my (realistic) dream car is.

So when the 370 came out I started drooling again.

I picked up my Platinum Graphite shiney new Z this past Monday with the idea of keeping it stock for a while. Yeah right, by Wednesday night I had some Racing Harts with new rubber on it.

My wife just rolls her eyes.

Now I'm parting out the Titan to pay for the next mods.

I love this car!

Yep, that's where I got mine too. Good guys - I've dealt with them a few times. Just picked my Z up there tonight for the second time after it got tint and a clear bar today that was part of the deal. On the last day of cash for clunkers they got everything done despite being busy as hell I'm sure.

Probably helped that two days after buying my Z last week we went back to get my wife an xterra, lol.

They offered to do the tint and clear bra on mine but I had a local guy do it for me, I did need them to work on some water spots on my hood however and they got me right in no questions asked and got it done very fast.
Im sure buying the xterra helped too haha. Which salesman did you work with if you dont mind me asking?

Oh, btw that color and black were the toss up for me! I love the color of your car, but ultimately the black won me over although at times I regret it! haha

We worked with Jose.

I used to work with Josh before he moved to St. George. Both are good guys.

The Z looks great in black. If I hadn't had a Civic Si a few years ago (in black) that would never stay clean I maybe would have gone that way too.

Either way you can't go wrong.

I had it back to the dealer yesterday to repair a scratch that was on it when I took delivery. Their paint guy did a good job, the scratch disappeared.

They put me in a Sentra for the day. It's good to have my Z back!!

Congrats on your purchase dude, got my PG 2 weeks ago and absolutely love it.

I think the PG makes the Z lines pop. No better color IMO, plus it looks clean even when it isn't.
