New 2013 370Z Owner

ColdFire · 12-24-2012, 05:20 PM

Hi Guys,

I'll start with introduction. I'm from Qatar and 370z would be the start of my sport car journey.
My first car was full size lexus suv and my second would be 370z.
Had always looked up for a nice porsche or AMG however, considered keeping the money and buying a brand new 370z being a great track killer. would ride it hard day in and out expecting delivery next week. one of the reasons for this wise purchase was the great platform for modification. I would install a lowering kit while keeping the 19 inch ray factory wheels. any recommendation? i'll do my research on the forum and i'm sure ill find out a lot.
Peace to the middle east

Welcome Coldfire!

You'll find this forum has a phenomenal amount of info on it.
I find the best way to search is this:
Click search, select advanced search, and then type a few terms into the Google search bar at the very top.

Wel-come to the club ...

These are the picture in the dealer storage.. sent by them.
Silly thing they are not sure about the specs. I wanted full optioned Z.
Could you tell if the car has the sport package stuff.. 19 rims, brakes, spoiler, heated seats, rev match are obvious.
How can I tell from inspection if the car has the LSD?. What does it look like?
Euro sport suspenions? how can I tell if it does have it without seeing the spec list?(they don't have one)
can you tell from the picture if the car has the rear camera?
I will be traveling 600 km to Bahrain tomorrow to inspect the car and pay CASH!! Your reply and support for the questions above are critical.
Thanks in advance and happy motoring

Definitely sport package, you can tell by the s-mode button next to the shift knob and the rims. LSD isn't shown but is a part of the sports package. The LSD is on the rear axle of the car in the center; looks like a pumpkin.

Welcome and congrats!

Thanks guys for the complaiment that car was the only available optioned out Z in the dealership with 6M i guess i got lucky with that color combo initially I was thinking solid red with black interior however this color combo kinda grew on me... I can't sleep been watching reviews on youtube and going back to these photos!. when i bought my brand new lx570 lexus it was big money but no excitement what so ever compared to this purchase.. I need to get some sleeping as i have a long drive ahead...

Yes the initial excitement will be there, then it translates into smashin the pedal hard. Just keep her tamed on the drive back.
