Of course I'll post some. Car needs a bath for some good pics, but since it Silverstone, it's still looking pretty good! I can't stop looking at the damn car. :-)

At first I wanted the coupe, then I decided on a roadster (6spd), by far the best car decision of my life. I pulled so much a$$ the last couple summer driving around with the top down! Girls would beep at me and such, I probably met about 10 girls driving because of my car. Also, with the top up in the winter I get about a comment about once a month like (hey man, sweet car), however with the top down its every other time I drive!

The Z looks amazing in coupe and roadster form, though I think the coupe is beautiful in form and design, but when the top goes down on the roadster and a rear spoiler is added and you start driving' and.. and ..and .. then I would have to say the roadster inched ahead slightly in visual dominance!!

BTW.. I bought an 05 350Z Roadster yesterday!! silver with black leather,1 owner.This car is soo funnn!
I LOVE it!
I have had 911's since 1990 to 2003 .It was time for a change . I gotta say the Z is a really nice car and I feel like more "real" people have Z cars out there .

My limited experience with tracks is that most do not allow the ZR at "open to the public" events without an aftermarket rollbar.
Two years ago I was fortunate to attend a track day at Heartland Park in Topeka, KS. The track day was a private event and not open to the public. For that reason I was allowed to track my car. My car is as stock as it left the factory and I had a ball. The brakes and transmission performed flawlessly.
The upcoming Labor Day weekend will be the Midwest Z Fest in Omaha and there will be a track day at Mid-America Motorplex south of Omaha. I'm told Roadsters will be allowed there as well.

I was allowed to do 1/4 mile drag with no rollbar and all-stock ZR. Great fun but awful times. Also had some odd gear-grinding at hi rev.
