Hello all!

Hi guys! I'm a new Z owner and new to the forum.

My first car was actually a 1980 Datsun 210 hatchback station wagon (NOT to be confused with the B210). Since then, I have not been back to the Nissan family until now. I recently purchased a 2010 Red 370Z Roadster Touring/Sport with manual (cuz real girls drive stick

). My car is currently being shipped to me so, I haven't even got a chance to play with it yet. *sniff sniff* I have to keep telling myself..."soon...soon...be patient."

Ok, so here is the deal. I am a huge fan of American muscle. I am leaving behind my 2002 Steeda Mustang GT convertible, Triple black , manual, with a ton of mods both inside and out. Mmmm love that raw power. That being said.... I can't stand the new Mustangs!! They are too big, too heavy feeling, and you feel more like you are sitting in a powerful sedan than a sports car when in one. So, since trading up isn't an option for me... I chose to trade sideways. I loose torque but I gain handling.

It will be awhile before I can afford it but, this car will be supercharged...oh yes... it will. *has already started a mods wishlist*

Haha, welcome. I was actually on the verge of buying the new Mustang GT, but decided to get this instead. I'm sure you are going to love it and I can't wait to see what you do to it =D

Some days I see mustangs and like them, some days I'm like bah that thing is way too boxy and big. I just think the Z has it beat in the looks department all around. Plus I also like driving a relatively rare car. Stangs are a dime a dozen, but you don't see Z's every day.

Mustangs are everywhere and everyone has one.

I pulled into an autozone yesterday and some dude was helping this lovely lady with her mustang. I pulled in two spots over so they had room. She caught a glimpse of the front end as I pulled in and immediately whipped around to check it out. She walked around it and was in Awwwville.

Welcome to the fam. and you will love the Z.
