Moving on , just a bit sad

chirowolf · 02-22-2012, 07:54 PM

Sold my 2009 370Z touring sport today. Funny thing is I miss it. I have had a Nissan since about 2003 with my G356MT coupe adn moved on to the Z last year.
I really liked the Z, but never totally fell in love. Not sure why. I can tell you I loved the G35. By all measures the Z was much better car than the G.
Long story short
While out just cruising stopped by the local Motorsports shop (carries all the high dollar cars) and test drove a Lotus Evora
Ended up leaving with the Keys to the Evora

I wish I could keep both, but as they say "there can be only ONE" well at least for now.
I would like to thank everyone for all the great advice and help on all my Z projects

hey congrats on the lotus.

ZMan8 · 02-22-2012, 08:02 PM

evora is a sweet ride. give a review.

chirowolf · 02-22-2012, 08:17 PM

So far i love the Evora. The handling is just another level. hard to describe the responsiveness.
The Z's cabin is more comfortable with better climate control. Stangely I like the Z's exhaust note better than the Evoras, but i have already ordered a Radium CAI adn looking into a different exhaust
Teh Evora comes with a poor Alpine unit. I will have that out within a month and replaced with a nice Poineer unit

Congrats! The Evora is pretty awesome

The dealer kept calling it a Lexus engine, whatever. the engine is good and delivers plenty of power for me. overall good power to weight

interior pics. and yes, its a 2+2 of course you cannot have legs and have to be under 5 foot tall

, but will do in a pinch
