Default I have one of my dream cars!

Hello, my name is Mikie and I use to really be into the american muscle scene. Here is my previous car: 2000 Camaro SS.

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2078085

Although I loved my SS, I always loved the 350z as one of my dream cars. I waited patiently until I ran into the perfect opportunity to get one. When I went to look at the car, being a perfectionist, I expected to find some kind of flaw in the Z. I was amazed by how perfect it was and was at a lost for words. This very nice couple were engaged and just bought a new home. They wanted a more practical ride quickly. They were VERY nice people. They (her actually, it was the girl's car) just never got a chance to drive it. Within a week, I sold my SS, and picked up the Z.

It is a 2003 Touring silverstone edition 350z with every option expect navi. and here is the incredible part. I bought this with only 9,000 miles! yes, thats right, 9,000! It has the full nismo body kit. Automatic. I bought it an unbelivably fair price!!!, and I now have about 12,500 miles on it. I still can't believe I found this gem. And no, nothing is wrong with it, as I said, they didn't drive it much at all. I actually did a carfax and it came out clean. I also take it to the dealer where the girl's brother works at.

*The handling is incredible! I have been on the highway with the best of them, porsche, ford GT, etc.

I love the look of the exterior...not a block away from picking it up, someone in a car asked me all about it. It was also nice to have 2 ferraris check it out. It is beautiful and i love the silverstone? i think its called. Gives a very modern look to it. It also has the HID's which are badass!

The interior is great! looks and feels nice...love the seat warmers, I also have the optional bose subwoofer behind the seat, which sounds nice. THere is also the auto dimming mirror which I'm still not quite sure how to use. Love the power of both seats. I have had someone who owned a porsche and say the feel is similar. This couple put about every option they could on the car...you name it, Z mats, aluminum trim on strut tower and kicks, privacy nets, Z pouch on back of seat, Z license plate, etc.

and yes, i Know its an automatic! my last car was too. I sit in wayyy too much traffic to be able to enjoy manual.

long story short, i LOVE this car! and I am enjoying every second of it. There are so many details in this car that I have yet to find out about!

sorry for the long story but I am just excited every time I see it!

I am happy to be here! Sorry if I posted too many pics. I'm just a newb Tell me what you think of my new ride!!!

hey everyone! thanks for the kind and warm welcoming. Can someone please help me out to find the best place to buy some volks? I am wanting some silver wheels, but I don't want a polished lip. With this car, I'm all about the brushed/aluminum, clean look. thanks!
