Is your mom single? I'm interested if she's got 3 Zs!

Zensation 05-20-2014 03:28 PM
Lol no my mom is not single. She also doesn't have 3 z's just the one white one. She actually just traded in her 1987 Porsche 911 Targa for it because she liked mine so much whenever I get over to visit my parents.

Then my mom just bought a white persimmon 2013 (which is a huge buzz kill) and a gun metal non nismo and a silver one I pass on the way to work...I wave every time. No one waves back. Super annoying. Also seeing more nismos than base models is odd but whatever. I don't see not owning a car bc other ppl have one as a con anymore although I used to like getting the looks. But it seems to non enthusiasts 370z =350z and 350zs are everywhere just like mustangs. I came out of AutoZone the other day and this chic with her boyfriend was like ooh wars that and I heard him say oh it's only a 350z. Kinda pissed me off
I do agree with this. I've had my 370 nismo for 2 months and non car enthusiasts call it a 350 who don't know better every damn time. :shakes head:

A couple things to look out for with the 2011-12 5.0s are the MT82 trans and cylinder 8. They have heat issues in cylinder 8 and they like to go up quick. I would do a compression test to make sure the motor's fine, before even considering it.

Definitely test drive the car and go through every gear to make sure it goes in smooth and doesn't whine. After the test drive, leave the car running and smell the exhaust, just to make sure it doesn't smell of oil.

The 5.0s aren't as rare as the Nismo Z, but man are they fun to drive. They handle exceptionally well for being what they are.

Or you know, if you want big power and great handling, you could always put a V8 into a well handling car. :)

Well the deal is finalized and Im looking forward to modding up a new platform. As an asside i put my hks exhaust and stuff up for sale if anyone wants it ;)

Congrats and enjoy the new ride!

Mustangs and Camaros are nice, but everyone has one. I can count on one hand the number of 370z's I've seen running around..

Zensation 05-25-2014 06:46 PM
yeah it doesnt matter too much to me anymore that I have something someone else has. That wasn't the reason i bought the z anyways. Im just glad to be ale to have another toy to mess around with abd a back seat the kid and all.....not much of a backseat but in a pinch it will do.

got the mustang yet? how are you liking it compared to the z? thinking of picking up a 2014 5.0 myself from the dealer soon as a daily driver...

jetgelneo 05-26-2014 11:30 AM
test drove a few 2014 5.0's and a few 2014 z's at the dealers and was surprised at the 5.0 mustang...by the way sorry im the biggest mustang hater...never liked any of them but test driving a new one has convinced me, now im a huge fan of the new 2013-2014 style lol.

I'm picking the car up tomorrow....so I've driven a couple 5.0s and they are all pretty powerful....but the one I'm picking up with the long tubes and boss intake and off-road exhaust....I'm telling you drive someone's car with those mods it's a freak in beast. Hard to keep traction going into 3rd and 4th ..my first mod too add will be wider wheels and rubber for sure. As far as sound mustangs even though they are common the sound imo is unmatched with a decent exhaust....I'll post vids up when I take delivery.

jetgelneo 05-26-2014 04:09 PM
wow, cool that sounds great, come back to post after you get the car! and I agree on the beast exhaust note!! :D:D

jetgelneo 05-26-2014 04:11 PM
:ughdance: And i'll be honest, I watched the Need For Speed movie and instantly got me into the new mustangs:happydance::happydance:

Zensation 05-26-2014 04:16 PM

Zensation 06-01-2014 06:20 AM

This.
