New 370Z Owner / Member

Well it's been cold out, but I've stock piling parts in the garage. Got parts for the Jeep, motorcycles, and quite a few for the 370. Got a box from the Aircraft Spruce the other day, as well as a few other goodies recently. Still waiting on my Hotchkis sway bar set.

Fly1 spoiler, going to install it as is, but still unsure about the Carbon fiber. I may get it painted. Going to wait and see how it looks.



Got the complete set of vents. Between this, duct work from Aircraft spruce for the air filters, and the new oil cooler, the car should run nice and cooler this summer.

I never had any problems out of my Passat. It was a great car, 48-52 MPG pretty much always, as I was mostly all highway. Even a bad tank was 45 MPG, and the car had get up go when you needed to for what it was. Only thing I had to do was change oil in it. Added exhaust fluid to it just at oil changes.

It was a great car. I got a great deal on it when I bought it new, but the buy back deal was too sweet to pass up they offered basically what I paid new for the car after I drove for the year. I couldn't turn it down.



The mileage really was unbelievable for a large car, I'm not kidding when I say it was routinely 48-50+:



I ended pulling all the emblems off the car, except the VW off the back.



The only thing I didn't like is in the US you cant get the car fully loaded with the manual transmission, so I had to forgo a few options to keep my manual transmission.

Well I went back and forth, but I decided having just a carbon fiber spoiler wasn't going to look right. So I dropped the spoiler off at the painter this morning. I'll get it back in a week. (Hopefully)
