Default What do you Love?

Just for fun I thought I would start a thread asking the question.
"what is it you love so much about the 350/g35 that you can't sleep at night?" I personally can't get over the sound of a Z with a Stillen S/C and a Nismo exhaust. I love the sound so much I put it on a CD so I can listen to it whenever I get those urges. Please give me your tow cents. Lets make it so that anyone who looks at this thread is so brainwashed that they feel obligated to buy every 350z or g35 they see. Kinda like on the movie conspiracy theory where Mel Gibson has to buy the book Catcher in the Rye every time he saw it.

Getting head






















Oh wait... what we love about the Z I love the ride... the car fits me like a glove. I've never had the same experience in any other car I've sat it.

Hmmm my Z!! Everytime I think about her I just smile she is so wonderful to meI can't say I have just one thing that I love the most!! I really love the way my car always has a smile on her face, its like she is always glad to see me!!!!I love the fact that from the back we look like sisters(we both have big rear ends LOL!!!) I love the fact that she always make me look and feel good even if I'm having a really bad day!!!!!! I love how she looks like a diva but she always like to get down and dirty with the other cars at the stop light! And she loves her music just a loud as I do!! I love the way she catches the other sex's attention, and at first glance she has their soul!! The way she takes off at a drop of a hat, and never gives up she just keeps pushing!! She never stops amazing me with her power and strength!! That lovely sound she makes when you are roaring down the highway!! The way she can take a curve and never back down from a challenge!! She is alway waiting for me when I come out of the mall or walmart and she is never mad at the fact that she couldn't come in!! She has the best attitude in the world, sassy,classy,sporty,sexy,fun and many other things! And I know that she would never pick a guy driver over me...she is my best friend and I love her like a mother loves her only child!!

I love how my Z looks SO MUCH better than the boring, lifeless econo-boxes, minivans, and lame azz "general purpose vehicles" (i.e. Ford Taurus, Dodge Intrepid) that are driven by the countless number of mindless drones and Stepford Wives and soccer moms where I live....LOL

Hiting close to 6600 RPMS is a dream. Visting the dealership or the thought of it is a nightmare.

Love the sound of the VQ engine....

The engine sounds so different from other cars I've had (Prelude, RSX, Civic, TL, Protege5)

Expect to become addicted to it. Where else can you legally drive in a manner that would get you arrested on a normal day?

Really - expect to learn a hell of a lot about what this car can do. I've pushed it very hard and still have not been able to break the rear loose. I guess I'm still not trying hard enough.

Hopefully you'll get a chance to talk with some of the experienced drivers who can help you through the first couple of runs. I was fortunate enough to go to a AutoX school first. It takes a while before you learn what the car will and won't do. That's especially true if you haven't really pushed it hard or braked suddenly.

I'm to the point that I can't wait to find a road course to get on. I don't know if I could stand the excitement.

BTW, once you feel confortable with it, don't forget to turn off the VDC.

Check out the AutoX forum here at My350Z and check out http://solo2.org . "Christoc", a member here runs Solo2.org and has his 350Z as a project car there. Lots of good info there.

Naw, get out there and have some fun. I'm running on stock tires. I can't wait till I wear these out so I can get some better tires.

Thats ok I'm a little shy when it comes to new things, I like to watch first and then I can see what other people do wrong. Then once I get out there I will look like I know what I'm doing!!!

Man, Hank sure has had some fun with ya'll.

First one to guess which (currently built) engine bay a 4g63t sits in wins the WTF prize.

Maybe I'm wrong; perhaps Hank is a convert to the VQ 3.5 - I went the other way around, myself: Had a Z; got an EVO.

I love the sound of my turbo spooling up, and the sound of my exhaust, too.
