Default Richmond,Va 350z NEWBIE!!

Hey guys,
My name is Alfie and I just picked up a 2003 Blue 350Z touring today. I am new on the boards and I just wanted to introduce myself. Its got about 20k on it and I got it at a steal since I work at a car dealership. I will hopefully be picking up my 19x9 and 19x10 Lexion 503 wheels and tires today and hopefully have some pics up. I am in the market for an exhaust system if any locals have any they want to get rid of.
I used to drive a 04 WRX then went to a Lexus Is300 and now I am a nissan man for the moment.

Nice to meet you guys and any help and suggestions will be appreciated!!

If you're looking for some good used stuff, check out the classified sections. People are always parting out their cars left and right, you just gotta be a forum hawk and respond immediately when things get posted up.

Search up these two threads before you start modding:
1. "before you mod your car, read this!"
2. "What mods have you regretted?"

It'll help you a lot to see people's trials and errors

Welcome to the forum.... I think I may have seen u driving around southside. My parents live right beside Chesterfield Towne Center and I'm always driving around there. You car looks like one I've passed by but Z's are getting pretty deep around Richmond so who knows. Some Z meets around town would be a good idea with the amount I have seen.

yeah your rims are distinctive, well to me. I saw a blue one on 288, can't recall when but it had rims on it and heading towards 64....to the west end. I was on my way to SS at the time. Why selln the rims man?
