Congtrats!
Ethan,
Remember your words to me when I traded My "03 Track for the "07 NISMO "don't let become a garage queen"
I still have my "07 Nismo and got more miles than your 350Z (28000)
Keep this Thread going it is very rewarding to see what this car can do to a real enthusiast!

I parked my silver '08 coupe next to a silver '87 coupe at Lowes a while back. I thought my '85 coupe looked really good back then, but they were turds compared to the '08.
One thing I'll say for the 300ZXs, though. They sure were a LOT easier to get in and out of.

Nice to see another long term-original owner... but I think your math is off a bit....

I love both my Z31 and Z33, but for totally different reasons. Obviously the performance of the Z33 is superior, but the Z31 can hold its own. Highway acceleration on the Z31 is actually very good, but off-the-line it is a bit slow due to the boost lag. Z33 handling is an entirely different level; but the Z31 is still fun to drive. My Z31 has the original suspension in place and is due for an upgrade within the next year (unfortunately the factory adjustable shocks are no longer available, but I am planning on a set of Tokico's). Both have been reliable, but lately I've been spending money on the Z31 to repair/replace items that are failing due to age. My Z31 has 71,000 miles on it- Z33 should catch up in a few more years... Z31 is more of "GT"- more luxurious and comfortable; Z33 is more raw.... again I love them both. I have owned the Z31 since 1995; can never get rid of that car.

I've put more miles on it in recent years; using it to commute to work; however I'm getting a Leaf as my new daily driver; so I'll probably put fewer miles on the 350Z in 2011-2012. Will of course update everyone next year (10th Anniversary!).

53k on mine (03), mileage is geographically dependant. Us folks here in the northeast have summer cars (350) and winter (Ford Explorer) so mileage is better than those of you who can scoot around all year without driving in a cars worst enemy, SALT !!!
