The only Z370 owner

Chuckster · 08-25-2010, 10:53 PM

Over the past year, several times people have remarked about my Z370 and I thought it was weird that more than one person said it since everyone knows its called a 370Z. But, I'm sure they were looking at the back of the car because my car actually says Z370 on the back.

I bought my Z in August 09 and just a couple of months later scratched the back end backing out of the garage at night. I wasn't expecting a car in my driveway and I didn't know that my daughter had come over and had parked her dark green car in the driveway. Anyway it was pretty minor, it cost like $450 bucks to fix it.

It was so soon after I bought it that I just thought they all said Z370 and didn't really think about it much. But more recently started to realize that I'm the only one driving a Z370. The area I scratched wasn't even near the letters. It was around the side on the left rear hip. I thought it came from the factory that way, and I was just about to post about it, but I found a picture with the dealer tags on it and sure enough it was a 370Z when I got it.

I'm sure the paint guy took them off and put them on wrong. I guess I'll have to go to the paint place and see if the switch it back without screwing anything up. Either that or continue to drive my Z370.

Just drive with it like that for LOL's.

Really it's nothing that a hair dryer + fishing line can't take care of.

Off topic, but that 1st pic you posted looks just like Mt. Charleston here in Las Vegas.

haha!

That's the greatest mod out there. It might even add HP. Keep it that way, makes the car unique.

I had to read it twice and look at the pic 3 times... Funny.

You're "special"

BeachZTT · 08-26-2010, 06:59 AM

That IS funny! I just replaced mine with the FairladyZ emblem. I could send you another Z and you could have one on both ends.

I would too. It's different and a good story to tell those that actually pick up on it.
