just curious, if you are going for performance, and dropping all this money into a car, why would you get an automatic?

Did, you guys not see MrA's post about getting a dyno when the car is done. If it is a built motor and the customer is breaking it in then the numbers will follow. Such haters......

I cant wait to get to the track with Dozzer.....you are going down!!!

Cant wait to see another ZR TT!

Because some people (like me) physically cannot drive a stickshift, so that should not hold them back from building a car they will enjoy.

Yeah, but not as loud as your Time Attack beast.

I miss my Silver Convertable, it was sick with it for sure.

Thanks for the Aero Heads Up MB...

So funny how so many people talk loads of crap of VRT, but ever notice that none of them show up to the track days, or time attacks???? To see what VRT can really do. But anyways congratulations on the car. You will have a lot of fun with it. It is pretty cool to drive a built tt'ed automatic every once and a while. Congrats

True that. Not too many Z and Gs show up to the tracks here in Cali that is for sure...Would love to see more.

Absolutely.

I want to do a photo-shoot with both Abe's Brickyard and your White Z.

Your car was already in one Photoshoot last week At Button-Willow for Enkei with Eagles sickass G35 Coupe.

I wanted to do something a litttle bit different. Besides, I bought my car before I found this web site and all the great members. I decided an AT thinking I was done with modding cars and racing, and tired of sitting in traffic witha stage 2 or 3 clutches. Now I have an everyday *** kicker. I told Michael I wanted a daily TT 350Z, and he delivered! Thank you for the kind words. As soon as I get a chance, I will bring the car down to VRT for DYNO.
Here are some bad pics of MY350Z.

Side Note: Identity Thieves Suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
