Default I bought my dream car this week!!

Hey people, just wanted to say hi!! I have been wanting a Z for years, I was all about the 300 back in the day & then the 350.
I owned a BMW 528i & this past Sat, I rode past Rivergate Nissan & feel in love with an 06' ...so I bought it!!!!

Had 10,000 miles on it was owned by a NY Yankees ball player...hmm wonder which one though.

Welp just wanted to share my happiness about my new Z!


Color: Interlagos
6 speed
20 inch wheels (looking into new wheels)

The wheels came on the car, I had some nice Zenetti 5 spoke 20's staggered on my bimmer. I am looking into a style like that for the z.

Congrats. I hope you enjoy it.

As for the wheels...I agree. Try to sell them here or something but I'm not a fan of chrome...or 20's. But if you dig them, cool. And I know they came on the car so I'll cut you some slack.

sell the wheels, you can probably afford a turbo with the money you get from them.

how much did you end up paying?

yea..the wheels..ha! They are ok. I do want some staggered wheels..yes 2o's. I have always had 20's on my BMW's. But These are not my favorite kind. But to answer how much I paid for the car...eeeeh. Alot ha! I sold my bimmer cause it was paid for, then dropped 10,000 on the z. Still alot. They are pricey cars..but well worth it. I love it.
Thanks for the welcome here!!

Unless they sold him an 03 BY at 06 IF price, then it might matter.

You should look into Volk Racing Rims. I have the SF Challenge 19s and they look awesome. From what I've read on the site, the Volks fit great - and I know they look great. Congrats on the Z

Its an o6, the car salesmen said it was brickyard color. But he was wrong. I went up to the car lot today to get my tags & told him it was Interlagos & a SR. salesman said well yea. So my guy was re-re, and had no clue. Either did I though, since it's my first Nissan or Z. I have always had Bimmmers or Mustangs..hehehe
