When I upgraded from my base model I promised my wife i would keep my nismo stock too..."It already comes with a better exhaust, rims, tune, brakes and suspension."...mod fever hits about a month post purchase ;).....Welcome!!! and regardless, congrats on the Z

Nice purchase! Good luck in keeping your Z stock :tup:.

did you buy this from hagerstown, md? I seen it on a lot and it was gone in like 2 weeks.

Old lady's body isn't even cold yet (pun intended) and you are already flirting with a foreigner...big betrayal to the mustang community!!! Jk congrats

Sorry to hear but how did the Scion fit into the equation???

That's the one.:icon17:

A couple of my buddies were telling me how I should check out the Suburu/Scion since it's such a "driver's car" that's "super lightweight" and supposedly handles like none other... so to be objective I drove one. IMO it handles OK but has no guts to speak of and is constructed like it came out of a cereal box.:ugh2: I ruled it out immediately.

In case anyone cares, the Camaro had a ton of power (it should... it's a 6.2L v8 after all) but was ugly, overweight, handled like poo, and had a really badly designed interior. The Mustang had pretty decent handling (not like a Z, but good enough), an OK interior, and tons of power. I was all ready to pull the trigger on one except that I pass 45 of them on my way to work every day and the Nismo was more fun to drive. Is the Mustang faster in a straight line than a Z? Absolutely. Will it lap Summit main faster than a Z? Probably (sorry, flame suit on). But is it more fun? HELL NO!

I've been known to make buying decisions with my heart instead of my head, and so here we are. I'm now daily-driving a Nismo.:icon17: Here's my other ride...

I am soooo in love with our Ducati oh my goodness!!!

hi

Haha, me too. That's actually a horribly outdated picture. You could say the mod bug hit me pretty hard with the bike; to the tune of an Ohlins TTX36 monoshock, Dan Kyle linear link, Ohlins 25mm fork inserts, CRG shorty levers, Rizoma Lux grips, Woodcraft rearsets, CRG Arrow bar-end mirrors, Termignoni exhaust, Jet-Hot coated pipes, Oberon preload knobs and reservoir caps, Ohlins steering damper, Shift Tech carbon fiber key guard, front fender and rear hugger, Kurveygirl Dzus fairing bolts, Zero Gravity smoke windscreen, Helibars, Oberon 28mm clutch slave, Comp Werkes rear fender eliminator, Speedymoto frame and fork sliders, billet oil hardware, etc etc...

This is why my wife has put her foot down regarding the car.:owned:

Hey we gotta say something to justify it lol

I never promised my wife I'd keep my cars stock. But when I buy parts, I always tell her they cost $300 max. Whatever mod it is, it's always $300. TE37s? $300. Bridgestone RE-11s? $300. F.I. CBE? $300. Now I can't stop lying about how much my parts cost.

I usually don't say anything until ups is at the door. Then I'll swear I told her about this part lol better forgiveness than permission!

Man screw the snow. Ive only ever seen it snow once in Florida before and stick to the ground. Was in north Florida when that happened but was gone by the afternoon! Just let those kids race off all day long, I just let them do it but no one ever messes with me, jUst thumbs up etc. I had one straight up want to race with his GTO. he took off and I just sat there and slowly left the green light and guess who was at the other side of the road....lol a COP!!! He went flying after that guy and nailed him:) I laughed so hard.


Enjoy! Tint and exhaust is a great way to start, maybe some cold air intakes and you can be set for awhile!

Hi
