Congratulations Nikon FM! I hope she's satisfying for you.:tup:

Thanks all! I'll post up a few more pics when there is good daylight and my schedule isn't kicking my tail.

According to the salesman (take that for what' it's worth) +200HP to my tuned 370Z….but I'm kind of a believer because when the unit hits .7 bar (slightly tuned) holy crap…... it is gone. I think a radar detector is definitely in my future acquisitions.

No body mods as far as I know. Yeah I've thought about Jeremy's 911 comments…….whatever Jeremy…He'd like the POWER though.:happydance:

Stock they put down ~415HP, so I can easily buy a good +100HP with a good tune on a forced induction car. Take it to a chassis dyno!

Nose looks stock to me. The 996 body style never did it for me...weird looking headlights...

^ I will take it to a dyno at some point before next track season. Not knowing for sure kind of makes me crazy.

So what, is the Z sold then?

Nice Porsche!
Definitely need more pics.

RE: weird looking headlights.. Yeah I never liked them either but I saw Porsche made a cover to give them the traditional shape. Great improvement, but the new owner gets to decide what he likes. Sweet deal.

Yes, I sold/traded in the Z. Overall a fairly good deal.

The headlights came out with the 996 911 make. Everyone hates them because they are the same ones on the Boxster. The early model 996 ~2001 had a number of parts shared with the Boxster and the interior was really crappy/cheap plastic due to Porsche trying to reduce costs at the time. 911 Porsche enthusiasts screamed at corporate because they went cheap. The 2003 however, has upgrades the earlier 996s did not. I don't know all the details but to get the rounded headlights you either have to buy a 997 911 or earlier. Earlier has less technology and later is bloody expensive so I opted for the 2003 with the better interior etc. The car cost me less than I paid for my 370Z brand new about 2.5 years ago.

Essentially I'm going to sell the seats and put race seats with a 5 point harnesses and I need to buy some stock 18" wheels and R-comps to get ready for next track season. It should be fun.:tup:

That is beautiful man, congrats! The previous owner did a great job on the car.

Sharp car, Nikon.

:iagree:

So how much was it in the end? Had to have been at least 80-90 - Turbo's are NEVER cheap...

^^ naw. He said cheaper than his Z was new.

o.O Interesting...
