Did this 370Z used to belong to a forum member?
 
I still had my email alerts for car shopping on and saw this lightly modded Z in Ohio come up for sale.

Link: 2011 370Z GM

I'm glad I saw this. Gave me an idea on how some exterior mods look on GM.

I'll take the taillights!!

kenchan 04-18-2013 10:22 AM

yah was like woo~ :tup:

... until i saw the taillamp. :ugh2: and the burnt blue tips. :ugh:

Bullit79 04-18-2013 10:34 AM

I like the JDM tailights, but I'm not sure if they're worth the $700+

The black fangs I'm on the fence about, but the black emblems and burnt tips are a definite "no" IMHO.

UNKNOWN_370 04-18-2013 10:45 AM

Damn, Z's in Ohio are cheap. $30,500 would buy you a 2011 base manual or auto depending. You're looking at 34,000+ for a 2011 touring with miles that low here in DFW

ShinyBlueZ 04-18-2013 10:54 AM

yeah I'm with bullit.. I thought the car looked so cool and stealthy.. until that back end, which is kinda bad. clear tail lights are so 1998, and the bright blue tips stand out too much and clash with the chill gun metal.

of course this is all just opinion. if you want to buy yourself one the sexiest cars ever, then unsex it to give yourself more of a challenge with the ladies.. that can be a fun time too. :tup:

Ok now I hope that this didn't belong to a forum member from the bashing that has begun lol. Still, I'm reminded of some advice I was given on modding: It's your car, do whatever you want/like and don't give a f*ck what anyone else thinks.

Why is it in the showroom most dealers leave their Zs out in the lot dont they? :icon17:

ElVee 04-18-2013 11:27 AM

Blue tips look awesome on a white, blue, or even a silver car. They just don't match a gun metal. Kinda like how the black badge in front doesn't match the default in back. What happened there? (The black badge isn't necessary, but looks just fine to me if that's what you want.)

The blacked fangs are done well, but it always saddens me to see one of the most striking and cool features of the 09-12 Zs (the fangs) get neutered out.

That said, none of this stuff should be a deal-breaker if you have a good deal and the desire.

hahaha, yah, on that car, yes. :icon17: burnt tips are borderline rice so it needs to be on a car that has more aesthetic changes to go with the scheme.

Looks good, minus the tails. Did anyone notice how it was first titled as a white car?

Bucketlist2012 04-18-2013 12:09 PM

Someone stole one of the gears....6 speed Auto ?

Surprisingly lots of people blacked out the fangs back in the day and many people were also complaining that they removed them from the 2013 model. Eh?

gSwift 04-18-2013 12:30 PM

I love the fangs and I had them painted. But I didn't paint them because I disliked them and wanted to hide them. I think it gives the car a much more aggressive look.

I was going to ask via their live chat function, and accidentally started the video. There is a shot in the video where you can clearly see it is the OEM MT shift knob, and the video voice-over also incorrectly stated it had a 6-speed automatic transmission. I felt like being nice and told them what's up :tup:

Too Funny...Most car salesmen are not knowledgable about basic stuff..

My 7AT was listed as a 7 speed manual...My Wife came home and was upset that the car she saw and called about was not an automatic..I called down and told them to LOOK in the car....:ugh2:

It was 7AT:tup:

Around here since they are few in the dealers they keep them inside.

Fountainhead 04-18-2013 08:14 PM

Ha ha I guess the OP original question isn't going to get answered, or maybe the original owner hasn't seen the thread yet.
Hope that someone on here did own it and they turn out to have been a good papa/moma of the car.
