Default New z owner

Hi,i picked up a new nismo on Feb.1.#0471 in silver alloy.Very nice web site and very informative.I will be 59 years old on the 13Th.of this month the z was a birthday gift but i had to give up my 98 gsx,that i bought new,for trade.The eclipse was,to date the best car i ever owned(and i've had quite a few..lol).So this nismo has big shoes to fill.I miss the awd,the nismo can't go there but it has more engine,tradeoff i guess.I did buy a new 240z in 1972,was a great little car.Some of my past cars starting at age 17(first car):1966 ss396 chevelle,67 sunbeam alpine,67 chevelle malibu(327/325),68 roadrunner 426 hemi(wish i had it now..lol),69 corvette(350/350..new but junk),72 240z,75 cosworth vega#1668,83 shelby charger..That enough..lol.Thanks for letting an old man rave on and thanks for letting me be a part of this.

Welcome from one 59 year old to another. I have a '07 Touring 6 spd. that replaced a '03 Touring 6 spd pre-order that was totalled when some guy cut in front of me. I love my Touring Z but you made a good choice.

That's a lot of nice cars. When I worked at Pepboys the master Tech had a roadrunner that he took me for a ride in one lunch break, it was an amazing car. From one newbie to another welcome to the site.

Good thought and a Good Purchase! I thought I might be the oldest here at 48! It's good to know that even the older guys know a good sports car when they see one! I just pulled the trigger and bought a new black on black 4 months ago but here in MISSOURI, have only 400 miles on it! Waiting for spring weather with no salt and no snow !
