Default The End...

It all started in November 7th 2005 when I walked into a Nissan Dealership looking for a normal car, when the Z caught my eye right away. I didn't want to look at anything else.. didn't want to go anywhere else. I just wanted to drive it home! I test drove it for a good 40mins. I knew the manager at the dealership so he let me take it by myself. I fell in love with the Z. I had no words, it felt awesome, handled like no other and looked amazing. Specially when it was parked with the bright light shinning right above it. It was calling me. Well I ended up buying the car. Now in 2008 it's time to let go of it. I want to thank everyone here that helped me out with any concerns when I needed help. I posted my noob threads too in the beggining, but it all makes me laugh now. I will stick around though.

Here is a lil journey of my Z from the first pic i took when I bought it, until the last pic I took about 1 week ago.


(MY COUSIN!)



























and finally...






it's up for sale / or taking over payments.

PM ME for info.

Man, you beat me to it. After seeing the pics, I was thinking, "So just how old do you have to be to drive in CA?"

To the OP: What are you gonna get to replace it?

lol. I was paying this much....


$498 Car Payment
$250 Insurance
$200-$250 Gasoline

That's a total of around $973 A Month for the car... just the car.

and with gas prices going up to $5.00 by the end of the year...


I also need to save about $10k by the end of this year...

Sorry that you had to let the Z go. Try finding a good deal on a Z32 instead. Those cars are very rare now.

Anyway, good luck man!!

Shame you've got to sell, but I can understand why.

I'm in Huntington Beach too. I like your wheels - I just got the stock 07 wheels from my 03 Touring and love them. Did you get them painted black locally and how much did it cost??

Savour your last moments with the Z
