Random awesome things about owning a Z

ChopsZ · 06-15-2016, 12:09 AM

One of the random awesome things about owning a Z is... Owning a Z!

Other than that, always being able to keep my keys in my pocket to get in and out of the car and drive it. No more hearing the keys dangling and smacking around while driving.

Never worrying about a small group of friends saying "Let's take your car", as they all now know it's only a 2-seater.

Having a very supportive following and a great source of quality aftermarket parts vendors.

Totally transforming the driving experience of the Z for only $400 by way of adding an axle back exhaust that completely masks the truck-like sound of the engine coming through the firewall.

Hah. That's exactly what what wifey and I thought when we test drove the Z. "Sounds like a f'in truck!"

That's my next mod, for sure.

I drove an '02 Chevy Blazer for a couple of years, which was a 5-speed and came with the huge 4.3L V6. When I first took the 370Z out for a test drive, the memory of that dang Blazer instantly popped into my mind! They sound identical! Where the Z sounds different/better stock is above 5k rpm.

No longer an issue with the axle back however.

Of course, now I'm going to google "Axle Back 370z" all afternoon instead of working.
