3 Z's Today
 
1. BS parked at 1850 Gateway in Foster City.

2. GM Nismo at Crow Canyon Road and then up 680 N around 515 PM.

3. BS or PG on Willow Pass Road going under 680 around 6 PM.

3 in one day. Amazing.

Think the PG was me. 280 North somewhere between San Jose and the Penninsula.

Saw the silver new one too - had a yellow dealer plate. I saw two more by the time i got to San mateo, a red convertible and red hardtop.

Sunnyvale Nissan 05-28-2011 01:05 PM

The yellow dealer plates are ours. We are going after the business in Northern Ca. Please contact us for any quotes on a 370z or any other Nissan for that matter. Plus we have reasonable shipping all over the U.S.

Dude, that was me for sure. Good eye. White Nismo with mag blue CE28s. They look much darker in person than in photos. My rear diffuser only looked blacked out because it is dingy from the exhaust fumes coming through test pipes. Car needs a wash badly, at least the backside.:roflpuke2:

I live behind the Ranch 99, so I am around this area a lot. Which way were you going? I did not catch you but did hear a horn honk. Was that you?

I've only seen a few 370Z's in the area myself. Saw a silver one on Montague yesterday and have seen a couple PG's. They are rare around here, or I just don't go out much.
Many 350Z's though. At work there are 3 in the lot.

navamous 07-07-2011 09:24 AM

Saw a pw 370z with Nismo rims woman driver on Jackson in Hayward....love that color

i was actually in a 4runner at the time going towards brokaw. my Z was parked at a friends house not too far. DAMMIT. once i saw that white nismo, i was like...it HAS to be the SC'd one. i must see your car one of these days, because thats the route i want to go in the future!

and dont worry, i need a wash too. i did a full detail (took me 2 days to polish the damn thing), but after a week the ash from the exhaust kills the back end!

Good time to do the GTM SC. GTM just released the stage 2 SC kit. Compared to the stage 1 kit, it costs about $500 more but makes I think at least 50 more HP than the stage 1. Let me know through PM when you want to meet up. Be warned that you may want to go FI immediately once you've had a taste.

And even though our white cars rear ends look like sh!t after a few drives, it is still easier to deal with than black. My other car is black and it used to take me well over 4 hours to wash and detail the exterior and then 2 days later it looked like crap again.

I actually live in Vallejo.. I see a white nismo every now and then in vallejo and around berkley. i can't recall if the rear diffuser was black though.. My Z is my daily driver now that my Altima is gone.. So i might be one of the PG that you see around.. lol

That was probably me... I had a great time.

Car is brand new, (had between 1600, 2000 miles on it) so I was trying to take it a little easy, but Laguna Seca is just so much fun and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take it on the track I know best.

Without an oil cooler, the oil temp was still managable, but I'm definitely going to put sythetic Mobil 1 in it at every oil change...

Mt Tam I am 07-18-2011 12:10 AM

I saw a PW in San Rafael heading south around 1-1:30 today. I tried to get your attention, but all that honking & waving might not have .
