Default LeMans Z & Blue G (PICS)

I had to drive my recently arrived Z down to Portland today for some business. While I was there, I dropped in on 3rdZ4me who is (not quite ) patiently waiting for his Z. One of his work buddies had a blue G35c, so we snapped a few pics for everyone's enjoyment. Note that before I left Seattle, my car was shiny and spotless. It was raining in Seattle / Portland today, so that's my excuse for having a dirty car... I feel like I have to defend myself on that point. Anywayz, on to the photos.

Rahtok,

Thanks again for stopping by. Your car is really nice looking and I appreciated seeing your Stoneguard install.

NNA called me back after you left and confirmed my car was in the production run starting Dec 2nd (X order number) and is scheduled for delivery at the dealer Feb 12th.

BTW I forgot that Rep15 also has a Lemans Sunset along with you and Daveden up there. I'll look forward to seeing you at a Pacific NW/Seattle meet down the road...

Nice pictures! Now that I have seen the two cars side by side, I would have to say that I definitely like the 350 better. I have a CS on order. It's due in mid February.
I will say that I would have highly considered the blue color on the G35 if it had been an option on the 350z. Wow what a nice color!

Both Rahtok and I brought our digital cameras. Here's a couple more pictures with some commentary. First the great orange interior...

We had the cars pretty much exactly lined up nose to nose...

And they seemed to line up exactly at the rear, too. That surprised me because the wheelbase on the GS35C is longer. then I checked how the axels were lined up. The rear axels were exactly in line with each other, but the front axel on the GS35C was about 6-8" in front of the Z's.

In spite of the longer wheelbase, the overall size of the cars (length-wise) seemed to be almost identical. From the other pictures you can see the GS35C is slightly taller.

Enjoy...
