OP,
Take the members' advice in stride and enjoy your new car responsibly. This thread will start "heating" up in a moment, so I'm out. I'm trying to go drama-free for the New Year.
btw, post pics!

I don't mean to sound like an *******, but when people judge by my age that I'm going to "rice" my Z out, or crash it gets on my nerves a bit. I don't say "Oh you're 45 years old and have your Z cause you're going through a mid-life crisis." C'mon gimme a chance.

Just seems like all their money goes to a car payment so they're just itching to mod the car as well so the only way to mod it is to go cheap... Pep boys, knock off items, and stuff that is just tacky... ie taking your exhaust off. The Z is the new Civic now because of the influx of kids on here.
Kids are VASTLY more apt to wreck (see your insurance rates vs. mine) too.
It's a stereotype for a REASON. It's usually what happens...
This is just where we are coming from BTW, do with this info as you want.

Statistics don't lie, this site is probably not the best to post your age. I was 17 when I got my Z and I just went over 2 years with it. I have never gotten in a wreck or been pulled over. On the other hand I would have definately killed myself if I had a Z at 15, I was like anyone else at the age very irrisponsible.

I know where you guys are coming from about this, believe me I got **** from most of my family about getting one, but my parents deemed me responsible enough, and felt like I deserved the car I wanted. I do exceptionally well in school, and I have excellent behavior. The reason I wanted a quick cheap mod was because since I'm only 15 I can't get a credit card, so I can't order parts online whenever I desire.

Well just because your a good kid and do good in high school doesn't make you responsible enough to own a 300hp rwd car. I had two friends in high school die racing around in their dads mustang gt, they did very good in school and were responsible. Don't put money in to your first car, my advice would be to save it for your next one. If you can afford a Z at 15, imagine what you can get when your 18 and out of high school. I assume your parents got it for you, which I'm not knocking cause I was pretty much given mine. To say your responsible though when the first thing you want to do is spend your last 100 dollars on mods for your car is a little farfetched.

You mostly got hate, because we could smell the cheap stuff you want to put on your z from a mile away. RDX antenna is 11$ at the dealership, and a popcharger is just under $100 dollars shipped from conceptzperformance.

https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2008-n...questions.html
do a lot of research and get educated about this car before you do anything to it.
