Soon to be new owner in NC

phishy · 01-08-2012, 07:18 AM

Hey guys and gals just wanted to say hello from Wilmington NC. We went to the nissan dealer and got approved yesterday for a new 370Z so next week we will be going to get it. Will be trading in my E46 M3 for it and I'm very excited for a new car. Up untill the M3 I had primarily owned nissan cars and it's nice coming back to the family. I'll be all over the parts for sale forum on here getting the car ready to take it to the track to have some fun.

sweet what color are you getting?

phishy · 01-08-2012, 08:32 AM

Well we are torn between two. One is a montery blue coupe. The other is a black roadster. I love the black...but my girl loves the blue...but she wants vert...and i want hardtop...lol.

USMCASA · 01-08-2012, 09:48 AM

if you want to track it get the hard top

nmjaxx9 · 01-08-2012, 12:23 PM

Welcome! And both Zs are a good choice but being a hardtop owner myself I say go with hardtop, and mont. blue is a pretty nice color.

phishy · 01-08-2012, 03:01 PM

Yeah I'm hoping for the mont. blue hardtop...but the black vert is also sexxy.

USMCASA · 01-08-2012, 07:09 PM

^get the sport pkg, well worth it

phishy · 01-08-2012, 09:03 PM

None of the ones we have looked at so far had the sport package I don't believe. The car is mainly going to be a DD toy....I'll be buying a 240sx or something to build for the track probably.

mine is my daily driver. biggest thing that helps out is the syncro rev matching, it will save your clutch. i currently have 81k on the odo and it pulls just as hard as it did when i drove it off the lot with 59 miles on it.

I love my ROADSTER. I got so much flack about buying it instead of the hardtop. I had to clarify the difference between a "vert" and a "roadster" to everyone that thinks that only girls buy verts. Most guys think there's a stigma associated with "verts", in that women typically drive them. I agree with that, which is why if you're a girl and you want a "vert" you should buy a g37 hard top convertible (they don't call it a g37 roadster); however, if you're a dude and want a true performance sports car that doubles as a convertible, ROADSTER FTW!!!

Happy shopping!

Just saw that the roadster was black....

Its a no brainer dude...

phishy · 01-09-2012, 01:36 PM

Yeah that car is beautiful. I don't mind owning a vert...as my M3 is a vert and being able to do some open air cruising is nice. Only thing is being able to take it to the track. I wonder if anyone makes a simple bolt in bar for this car so i'd be able to track it. Luckily with the roadster it doesnt really look like it would be any less rigid and the added weight would be the only issue.
