Thank you Semtex! Do you mean that Nissan deliberately puts the wrong wheel locks on the 370Z? Shouldn't it come with the right locks from the factory?

No, the locks are put on by the dealers not the factory. Unfortunately half the dealers apparently didn't realize that different locks would be needed compared to the outgoing 350Z.

I got black cloth seats I didnt go with touring. Does anyone know what the easiest route for me to take to get orange persimmon seats directly from Nissan. Can I do it through the dealer? I reeeeeeeeeallllly want the orange, I have a MB car and I had no idea I could get orange seats my dealer told me that the Z wasnt coming out with leather seats until 2010

dickheads.

That would probably be a lot pricier than just going to a shop and having them reupholstered. The touring seats are also power and heated. You would have to wire all of that in. If you're just looking for a color then you could have the seats and the side panels reupholstered.

Does farting count? Whenever I get a new car, I try to not fart in it for as long as possible. But inevitably, one day, there's just no avoiding it, and I have to let it rip. It always feels like a bittersweet rite of passage. On one hand, I feel like the car isn't truly my car until I fart in it. But on the other hand, it just doesn't feel as new after that first fart. Now, when my wife gets a new car, I race to 'christen' it, just to piss her off. I'm a bit of a bastard that way. Yeah I know. TMI, right? Happy Friday, everyone!

Got to be post of the day!!

I fell in love with the Frost when I saw it in a '03 350Z and it looked fantastic. I would have picked it with the blue but alas we can't pick our interior colours in Canada....

alexanderb · 06-20-2009, 10:01 PM

What happens? Do the tires fall out if you use the wrong one?

Does anyone have the part number of the correct locks? Unfortunately the car will be shipped to me and I will not be able to inspect it personally...
