New to the forum from Central FL
 
Good Afternoon all, just joined the forum about 2 weeks ago and finally got full access to everything a couple days ago.
Just graduated from UCF and started my job with FMC/Lincoln. From the time I was 12 I have been immersed in cars. My cars thus far have been a mix miataspeed, gen 2 speed3, na mkiv supra, and last when I first started interning with Ford a 5.0.
All, but the 5.0 went from mild to wild builds which included everything from built engines to chassis/suspension. I'm not a slam it kind of person, prefer function over form.

Now that I am out of school and have some time on my hands again I have been looking for my next car and arrived at the 370z platform. I have been slowly sifting through the forum and looking at the pro's and con's of supercharged vs turbo'd Z's.
I have decided on a turbo setup I am going to switch it up a little this time and buy a car already with my desired setup, than do it myself. Save a little money an headache. I have scrolled through the classifieds and other avenues where I have found a couple, so hopefully over the next month or two I can acquire a Z and join the family.

That's was actually the original plan, I bought a auto NA mkiv, so I knew it wasn't abused. It was going to be me and my dads project car. We planned to send it to Real Street in Orlando to have them do a rs1600 pkg, drivetrain upgrade, and hope to put down 900whp on pump gas. But when I started UCF and my dads business took a downward turn, wasn't much time nor money to take on a 50k build. So he decided it was best to sell it and put the money where it was needed.
But I agree, it would have been a bad bitch!

Very nice! Congrats on graduating, I know it was a train wreck for me to get out of there. Took be 5yrs to get out with my degree. They constantly changed my degree plan plus getting a honest answer from a career coach was like pulling teeth. At 22 I should be half way through my MBA, not fresh out of under grad.
Your Z looks badass!! I just checked out the thread. I am torn between the black and red!

Yeah I definitely feel you on the train wreck, I took the scenic route and went for 5.5 years :rofl2:. and Thanks! I'm loving it so far. I was actually in between black and red also when I was buying, but I ended up going with black just because that's the look I wanted as I start to change things around.
