Proud new owner of a SMB 350Z, FINALLY!

Hey, Guys,

I just wanted to announce that after months (and months) of mostly lurking around here, I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 San Marino Blue 350Z. It's an automatic, and I'm perfectly happy with that. My commute this morning was very nice!

Ciao...

It's an Enthusiast w/ Aero package.

Soon, I'll be looking to put in an iPod and Bluetooth stereo... and maybe wheels and tires. That's about all I want to do with it.

Congrats lurker. Sounds like a very nice cark. Wouldn't mind seeing the SB again so I could say it looks like a nice car too.

Congrats! Please tell me you didn't buy it from those scumbags at Premier Nissan. If so good luck dealing with their service dept when something goes wrong.

No, Premier didn't even have any in stock. I wound up getting it at Bill Hood in Hammond. I'll have pics up soon...

So after all that lurking, did all the knowledge you've collected pay off with the choice?

Congratz.

Yeah, if nothing else, it got me to take a second look at the 350z.

I was using a Mac Pro box to test storage space on the cars I was looking at, because I wanted to make sure that it could fit my PowerMac G5 (sans box), but I didn't really want to lug it around (and possibly scratch up cars). I needed to know for hurricane evacuation purposes. The 350Z was the only car that didn't fit the box. If an earlier thread hadn't told me about someone else's experience lugging computers around, I might've not gone back with the computer itself to test it directly.

I think I might have waited for Spring and tested the 1-Series if it weren't for that bit of knowledge. Either that, or gone with the VW R32.

Hey, I know y'all probably don't care too much about this, but my car is now holy... My ("fully Catholic, fully charismatic") priest blessed it tonight.
