Awesome! I read up on your post, and it's good to see you've bought another Z. Black looks the best, but is just too hard to keep clean. Build it to look like your red Z Have fun.

You could of paid a tad bit more for an HR which would of been worth it IMO. And I agree, get that **** out of the streets already. Hope you're not parking it in the same spot overnight (or even at all) after it got hit. But damn your insurance went through pretty quick and you found another car fast!

its definitely not in the same spot lol and we are still waiting on the check from the insurance company, but i had to have a car already because its supposed to be picked up and shipped to arizona in 3 days which is faster than the check would have gotten in. the check should be here within the week though

Damn baller. You bought another car before you even got your check. So you got a loan (or even better you had cash for that car as well...) to buy the car then when the check hits you'll just be paying it all off?

Upgraded bumper, headlights, taillights, year, mileage..what more could you ask for! Other then the HR lol.. Congrats

For sure he wouldn't walk away with a decent HR let alone a 370Z for that price but he could have used his settlement towards one of the two. Either way, it was a good buy & upgrade and Im sure the OP is happy and that's all that matters.


Congrats to the OP for his new ride

it all happened within this last week lol it's been a crazy week and i just put my 3 good wheels on the car and they look great on a black car, i think im in love all over again haha and i gotta admit, i love the 7k rpm redline, it teases me everytime i wanna drive normal. the one thing i really miss though is the clutch on my old z, for some reason, my 04.5 had a REALLLY REALLLY tight/tough stock clutch, this one feels light like off a GTi or something lol but ill get used to it eventually i guess

edit: im coming back the 18th, but my car is being picked up and taken to az on the 12th

IMO I would leave the ccw's off until you lower it or some sort. The stock just flows way better at stock height.
