Nissan 370Z Forum  

What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

I asked Nissan if this is something they have seen before. They said, maybe on the cheaper Sentra, but not on something like the Z. So they take less care

Drove her into the loop today for the first time. Don't have a second car yet, and the wife needed hers for work. Since this is my first manual I thought it'd be a pain in the stop n go traffic on I290 but it wasn't bad at all! Obviously if I had to make that drive everyday, I'd prefer an auto, but for these one off situations it was a breeze! Keep proper spacing was key. I just coasted in 2nd for the most part.

Thank you for the kind words, I concur, the Audi is just an spectacular car, love everything about it, nothing like German engineering.

Sad day today(but not really), got rid of my Z today, it was tough letting her go. I absolutely loved the Z, it is truly one of the best sports cars on the market and was an absolute thrill to drive. It was definitely a head turner and great performer. The addition of the Fast Intentions exhaust really made the car what it was meant to be. When I took the exhaust off it felt like the soul of the car got sucked out, but anyways it was necessary to let her go and move on.

I needed a AWD car for NY winters and still wanted to be in a sports car. So here she is....the new ride...2013 Audi S4 3.0T Supercharged. I can go on and on about the S4 and how great of a ride it is but I'll save that for later...

Anyways the Z community and this forum is probably the best community to be a part of. I've encountered and met very helpful, truly kind, and amazing members here. I have bought and sold things on this forum and even met great people whom I've never seen in different states. It's definitely the best car forum I've been a part of and is a very active forum with helpful members. I will continue to be active member here even though I'm no longer a Z owner. (Rant over lol) Thanks everyone!

Congrats on your new ride. You'll be flying on that one. I really dig the plates. Now you would not have to get rid of her had you lived in CA. If you ever make it out here, give us a shout in Cali and we'll be a great host to you.

Thank you for the kind words. I visit L.A. very often as I have family out there and I'm always saying this is the place to own a 370z and really get to enjoy it, but sadly I live in NY in which its only nice for a few months out of the year. I will definitely try to link up next time I get out there. Thanks
