Default My crazy 350Z story (still pending)

OK, so about 4 days ago I went to purchase my 03 blue Z (stock) with my blank check from my loan company. I filled out the paperwork, faxed all the stuff over, and the dealer let me take the car home. Yesterday I get a call from the loan people saying that they're gonna deny my check if they don't get some info from the dealer he is not able to provide. Title information I think. But anyways, I am driving the car for 5 days now, no call from my dealer, no calls from my loan people....did I get a free Z??

Of course. The lender wants to get a lien on the title immediately. You cant blame them for trying to protect their property.

You need to do massive burnouts and donuts immediately. Take video and post.

The dealer will want to get paid. They'll send the bank the info. I had a new car once for 5 weeks and all the dealer had was the $500 check I wrote when I ordered it. I guess they think you are good for the money.
Congrats on the car!

Yeah to tell you the truth I could care less. The dealer still hasn't called and the loan people say that they'll give him plenty of time. I need to fix the break rotors and then I am off to drifting like an animal and I will post videos. I don't live in the mountains anymore but I'll find a spot here in flat south Fla.

Why are you fixing something that isn't even officially/legally yours yet? Enjoy, none the less.

It's good to fix your brakes before you go sideways at 60 mph or so.

Definitely true. Hope it didn't cost you anything though, just in case you have to give it back.

Ok... like I said. I don't care. If they take it, I'll get another. The check has not been cashed. I do not have the title. I live in south Fla I can get another. Its a base model..... and don't get me wrong- I love it. I want to hook it up eventually, as for now, I am gonna get brakes, drive sideways (out of the way of any people,or public property), and have fun!
Can anyone tell me what their first Z upgrade was and why? What did it do for you and why did you like it?? I'll start- I got an intake manifold for my 289 v8 in my 1966 Mustang. I would totally recommend it if you are thinking about an exhaust and air intake because it upped my throttle response about 50%. I won't go into extreme details as I have no idea if anyone reading this can relate to a 66 Stang... but you get the idea... I want my Z to fly. I can feel the potential.

This is Crazy J
