Default Farewell Z photoshoot

so after almost 6 years of owning this car I made the tough decision of selling it. I listed it mainly just to see if there was any interest, since it was a **** time of year to sell a car. got a few responses from a few dreamers. some sayin my price was way to high. Then after 2 weeks i received a message from someone who could appreciate the car and the mods id done to it. A couple days later i was offered pretty much my asking price....so it made sense to let it go. The timing was right, and i have been thinking of a new project for a while.
anyways on the way to drop the car off to the owner my friend and i decided to quickly take some pictures so i can get some prints made. heres a few of those pictures.
Also you can checkout @garage_collective on instagram!

All the best!

Your Z is among the cleanest on this forum. Kudos for being able to let it go. I'm currently going through the same struggle with mine.

Wow Z looks awesome. And yeah, I'm in the same boat as you are.. I don't want to sell my car, but would for the right price.. I have it listed well above book value and if someone comes along and appreciates the mods done to the car then its theirs!

This. If someone offers me a fair price for what's been put into the car, I can justify the emotional distress of selling it. But I'll never let it go to a low-baller when it's not really breaking the bank to keep it around.

On topic: I have to admit I took a lot of inspiration for my car from AVMagneticZ (as well as SuperBlack350z), although both those cars were lower and more aggressive than I ever had the ***** to do.

Yah i didnt really need to sell it either. but this person really appreciated the parts. new what they were worth. there is always someone out there who can appreciate it.
I appreciate that comment a lot its good to hear that. you should follow the instagram page. see my other builds. its basically a drift team/brand i started. i just post daily stuff on there events, our cars, etc.all original stuff. Were all heading to japan in January so all that will be posted as well.

Glad you got close to your price and it went to an owner that will appreciate it.
I wish I could get in contact with the previous owner of my car and tell him how much I love it and that it will be cared for.

Good looking Z. I especially like the TE37s with the skirts. It's hard to let a car go that you've put time and money into it. I'm 7 years removed from my Z and I still think about the car at times. Here's to moving on to bigger better projects.

Ya I enjoyed it a lot. I'm looking at mkiv supra's . My dad used to have one back on 94. I always loved the car. Was supposed to get one before the Z . Didn't happen. So now it's time I think. Open to other things though. Was even thinking for that money I could do an S15 Silvia with lots of mods. I like a lot of 90's Japanese cars lol. Mostly anything Nissan or Toyota with a factory turbo. 4 dooor skyline crossed my mind. Even Toyota jzx100 lol
