Default My Bud picked up his 350z yesterday

Very nice! SS Tourning Model. Very tight.. we didnt have a chance to see what it can do since it only had a few hundred miles on it. Great car guys!! From what we did do with it, it is going to be a great machine! I think we are going to go to a dyno on 11\2 and see what power our cars make.

This was my first ride in a 350 and I must say, very impressive!

Thanks. Are you getting one yourself? or just have your friend be your daily driver?

Yup, was me that just picked one up.
03 Silverstone Touring
Great car!
I'll be doing a lot of reading here over the next few days.
Came out of an '02 T/A WS6. Lost a little bit of power in the trade, but the fit, finish and ride are just amazing.

Who'd you get your Z from?

I'm up in Creve Coeur.

I've had mine about a month now. 670 miles on her (about 250 from the trip from KC.

Welcome.

Picked it up at Moore Nissan on Manchester.
They also had a blue track model with custom leather and a K-1 integrated radar/laser system. It was somwhere around 40K!

I've got 350 miles on her now. Can't wait to get around 1000 to start having some fun.

I took mine into Bommaritto (spelling?) Nissan up off 270 when I had a couple lights come on (turned out to be a bad fuse). Anyway, they were excellent. Very good service, timely and curtious.

I bought mine from a dealership in Blue Springs MO. Near where I moved from, and that dealer was horrible. I was glad to find a good one out here. How is Moore?

To tell you the truth, not that great. About 45 days ago I bought a used 02 Bravada from Moore Cadillac. It had a really bad vibration problem that occured at about 60MPH because it had 20" wheels the dealership put on it. I brought it in three times to get it fixed and each time they would say that is just how it's going to be. The third time I dropped it off was also for a check engine light that was now on. They didn't have the parts in stock to fix it, even though I had it there for three days. After I picked it up, I got home to find a nice wonderful new dent/hole in the back of the tail gate. Someone in a flat bad had backed in to it, but nobody told me.

So now I have a "new" car with a vibration problem, a vibration problem and a new hole in the back. I told them it was time for them to do some customer service and maybe trade me out to something else. It took 2 or 3 weeks of me calling them back to get them to do anything. Finally, I just showed up and said what are we going to do.

Of course they wouldn't just refund me the money, but they would buy it back for 90% if I bought something else. I walked around the lot and couldn't find anything else I wanted. They had a couple used Vettes that I would have been interested in, but I didn't care for the colors and they hadn't been treated with the best care. So I wondered over to the Nissan dealership and saw a used Black Z with 4K miles. Asked to test drive it and fell in love.

We worked out a deal on a new Silver one. It worked out perfect, because I love Silver and this one had all the options.

So, To some this long story up, as a whole, I don't like Moore much at all. I surely wouldn't send a friend there to buy a car, as I wouldn't ever want to help them make another dime. But I was pretty pleased with everything on the Nissan side. Everyone was pretty nice, they had a good setup, and the sales guy had nothing buy good things to say about their service department. So I might take my car there for service, but Bomaritto is closer to me, so will probably just end up there anyway.

Hope this helps future Z buyers

No deals off msrp here. They said they sell them too easy to need to deal. They only had 4 on the lot.
