Hey guys, I've been trolling here for a while but never made a real post other than in the classifieds. I'm pretty well known on 300ZX Club forums as "JerseyChrisZ32" and have previously owned a 93 300ZX N/A and a 94 300ZX TT that was decently modded. Well I've been searching for the past few months for a Brickyard Red 350Z, I am obsessed with that color. Nice and low-key but really shows off when its clean (which my cars always are). Well a few days ago I found an 03 Brickyard Enthusiast 6-spd in showroom condition with only 25k miles. The current owner is an older gentleman who bought it new and doesn't have any time to drive it due to a busy work schedule. I was flat out impressed when I went to look at it today. Made a deal on the spot and will hopefully be picking it up tomorrow! I'm looking forward to attending meets around the area and meeting other 350Z owners since I don't know anybody with one! (all my friends have those shitsubishi evo things with the park bench on the trunk and far to many doors). I'm a big drifting fan (not brave enough to try that stuff myself though) and will be going to the Formula D event at Englishtown Raceway on June 14th if anyone else is going to be there. I know there is always 1000 of these cars in the parking lot in previous years. Well anyways, thanks guys, I think this is a great community with a wealth of knowledge and a lot of members willing to help others, which is great. Pictures will be up tomorrow! (hopefully)

Here is my ex- Z32 TT which was sold a couple months ago.

No real plans, I usually just browse the classifieds and if there's a good deal to be had I'll pick it up!

I really am in love with this color, its stunning in sunlight. Tomorrow I am getting professional pictures taken so hopefully that will capture what my little point and shoot couldnt. and yes, I am trying my hardest to not let the mod bug hit me. I'm sure it will eventually bite but I'm using all my will to prolong the car in its current state.

Thanks guys!
