What did you drive before your 370z?

SlikNik · 08-20-2009, 02:42 PM

I had a 04 350Z Touring model which was my favorite car. Irealized quick that the"BLOSE" system had to go and I gutted everything, Going with Alpine/ Jl Audio gear.
I traded this car in for a 2007 FJ Cruiser 4x4, great vehicle but I did miss my Z the whole time. Then Nissan came out with the 370

Just picked up the Platinum graphite base Sport. ( no wasted dollars on the " Blose") will buy after market leather even though I am pretty impressed so far with the quality of the cloth and stitching accents.
My favorite car I have had yet. Road noise is severe but I kinda knew that going in and hopefully when I gut the stock system some sound dampening will quiet things down a bit.

We had traded a Pre-Ordered 03 350 for our new 370. Had the 350 for almost 7 years and enjoyed it every time we drove it. Now we have had our new 370 for 4 months and took it on a 3K vacation in June. Fantastic car..... It is everything the 350 wasn't. Plus the price wasn't that much more than a 350 was. I am very happy.

BTW, about the same thing happened to our old 350 that happened to the car above. Not as bad and no one got hurt. But in less than a week a car that had never had as much as a scratch on it in 57K went to a total front end wreck. Now will some one please tell me just what is in the air or water after these cars leave their original owners?
