Default Hotrodder turned to Z guy

Well I little while ago I sold my 66 427 Shelby Cobra since up here in Seattle I couldnt drive it much with the weather. So I wanting a old muscle car I could drive if there was a small chance I might get rained on. But goofing off I test drove a 2006 350Z and LOVED it so much I wrote a check for it.
I have done the hotrod thing for several years and I have to say this Z is actually more fun then anything I have owned.

You probably got a good hunk of change left after selling the 66 Cobra and buying the Z! Welcome.

The shelby was nice very nice. But none the less it was a pain in the ***. People would stop me and ask me a million and one questions every time I stopped. So it would take me 30 min to get cash out of the ATM. Plus the money I made was GREAT.
I am new to the import world but from what I understand I didnt do to bad.
The Z has 10,000 miles
Full Nismo exhaust
Nismo wheels
Nismo suspesion
Nismo cold air
Bermbo brakes.
And the stock *** crapy stereo. I mist change that soon!!!

Welcome. You might check the Northwest region forum. We're getting a good pack of Z lovers around here. Any pics of your new and past car??

I have a 68 440 Charger as well as the Z, and much prefer the Z. I totally understand your thoughts. It's a great car.
