I bought an 05 Orange 6-speed 350Z 3 months ago, and 2 days ago it was just totaled. I had to swerve from being t-boned from a person who was running the red light...I swerved, fish tailed, lost control, did 360's and went off the road into the ditch and my car is officially ****ed

But what I dont get is...Ive made incredibly sharp turns after way faster speeds and the thing handles perfectly...this time i was going at 30 MPH or a lil slower and lose total control of the car.

Also...this car is quite weird, I've been looking on these boards and they say the Z tops out at 159, yet I have hit 170 on an interstate, with a friend in my car,....so whats up?

I have done no performance mods to the car. The only thing that was done was the Pioneer AVIC-N1 DVD/TV/GPS System, also XM Radio, Custom built sound equipment, and underbody leds

 

Not all roads are consistent, you'll get traction difference on all types of roads. Another possible reason is a small amount of dirt patches dusting up the road.

 

Dayum....sorry to hear that man. Hope everything works out for you.

 

No pics/video, no proof! I am assuming your speedo said 170? How long did it take you and your passenger!

How old are you, BTW?

 

i just turned 21 years old...no, no pics or proof...didnt have a digital camera at the time...

it didn't take too long actually...it just keep going

 

Did the speedo actually say 170? When you say not too long, how long, 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, ect

 

the digital speedo said 170, im not sure of the distance...but it didn't feel like a long time

 

 

u can call Hays Nissan in Madison, TN. This is the 3rd TT 350Z I have seen at their store.

 

Hmmm, maybe your right, but I doubt they installed it!

lol... zand02max's bs dectector is set on "high" tonight...

the op, sorry about your z, but at least you werent hurt.

 

They have a DB TT at Hays. The sales manager is the father of one of my coworkers. I'm up there all the time. If you hit 170, I think Nissan would be very interested in finding out how you did it.

 

sounds like bs to me

 

Get VDC next time... and I smell BS too.

 

besides it isn't safe to do 170 mph on a highway, except for the track.

 

sorry to hear about your Z....but Damnit people stop crashing them or our insurance is going to go up!

 

Guys, I dont get it, whats this post is supposed to mean? who mentioned a TT? and what has this got to do with him? he said he was stock? did I miss something?

 

This is kinda off-topic but I didnt knew that they made an "Orange" Lemans Z color for the '05's. I might be wrong.

 

Another rookie driver totals a car.

 

It must've been those underbody LED's.
