Talking New NISMO - 2018 Manual Black

Seems like I got one of the first Black Manual 2018 370z NISMOs in the states. When I bought it, it was still on a boat from Japan bound for SoCal. Dealer had it shipped up to the Bay Area and I finally got my hands on it today!

I was so excited I went for a 3 hour drive... and put 100mi on it! I took it through the mountains, by a reservoir, around some terrifying blind hairpin turns with trees on one side and cliffs on the other... it was heaven.

They just washed it this morning, but now it needs another wash! Here it is before the drive: (attached).

Congrats. You got the best color! But I am sort of biased. Now you need to make sure the the plastic shipping spacers were removed from your front springs. I’ll bet they were not. Enjoy the car!

Oh, I'm definitely driving it. I took the spacers out this morning. Was driving back from lunch later (normally a 4mi drive) and ended up taking the long way... got home 30mi later...
