Looks like we have a trend going on. I traded my 05' tC for an 06' Silver Alloy Enthuiast Z.





The best decision I ever made! Rattling Moonroof sealed the deal for me.

By the way, the '05 tC has a sunroof recall. I took it in for that a year and a half ago.

Yeah, no sixth gear really sucked on the highway.. Especially when you have a full 2.5" exhaust with no cats and a pretty much straight muffler. You could hear it coming from miles away.. It sucked. I usually kept the silencer on, which looked stupid, but really reduced the sound alot.

Last night I was able to beat a brand new maxima with a 6-speed, a '96 240sx with pretty much every bolt on (no engine swap), and a modded WRX.. 3 cars that would of killed my tC and I was able to put 2-3 cars on each one.

I'm heading out to the 1/8th mile track tonight, does anyone know what a good time is for a bone stock '04 base Z?

No offense, but it looks like a coffee can. Wonder how many HP it added?

I think I saw you about a week ago.. I tryed to give you a thumbs up but you (or the person driving) wouldn't look over at all.. It was a DB Z with some type of aftermarket rims, I couldn't tell what kind though because you were moving.
