Hey, new to the forum, just bought my Z the weekend before Christmas (merry Christmas to me).

Just wanted to jump in and say hi!

2009 Nissan 370z Sport AT 7spd platinum graphite. Yeah, I know its auto. I'm too lazy in this Dallas traffic and my left leg would get 2x bigger than my right after a few months.

Nothing wrong with a strong left leg.

Sweet thanks!

Meh there's nothing wrong w/ the auto on the 370Z. From what I heard it's actually still great, unlike old ways of having a 4spd trans and having LOOONNG gears, they went w/ a 7spd which gets the auto the same, and sometimes better, gas mileage.

Grats man and thanks for the howdy. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one that still says that in good ole urban dallas. (Oak Cliff)

wow a Z in OC, brave man lol. depends on which part but still.

antman22 · 12-30-2009, 11:18 AM

haha, i'm gonna have to agree with vipor, brave man to be in the OC. the auto is pretty nice in the Z, its a nice upgrade from the auto in my previous car (scion tC). only 4 gears so at highway speeds im at 3000rpm or higher....in the Z i can cruise on the highway at 2000rpm, til i need to pass someone

Meh, it's not the bad bad part but still "high risk" area on insurance.

Hampton/Illinois area. And to think I work way the hell out in Grapevine. So, not only am I broke but I spend about 60/week on gas and about 350 miles/week. heh

On a road trip, I got about 500miles on the tank. Woulda been better if I didn't get a lil crazy in Shreveport driving around.

Well at least you have a great car to enjoy all that driving in.

I do about 30 miles to work and when I have to go to campus it is 60 miles, but so glad I have the Z to enjoy these drives with.
