Default New Z owner...again

Traded my Silverstone 03 Z this morning for a metallic black 06. The headlights are awesome, and the brakes are extremely bright. Only saw them in pics before I bought this one, and wasn't really crazy about them. Once I saw them in person, I thought they looked pretty good. Does look like it is smiling though...hehe. The break in period is killing me though...and it has only been 1 day.

Congrats on your trade-in! I've been tempted to do the same--the various improvements in the '06s add welcomed refinement. Enjoy.

I had 38,000 miles on it, and it wasn't paid for. They did offer what I owed on it, which was the kbb value. I know I lost money on it, but I don't regret doing it.

I noticed that it looks a little different looking out of the rear window in the 06. Does anyone know if they changed the seat height from the 03? I may be crazy, but something looks different.

not really sure how much. I got kbb value, and that was what I owed on it, but I always thought that if you don't pay a car off, you are basically losing money on it.
