Default Hey guys, new to the board and nissans, just bought a 07 Grand Touring Roadster.

Hi! My name is Justin and I'm 25. I live in Northern Va and I just bought my first Nissan this past weekend. It's a 07 roadster Grand Touring (fully loaded!!). I bought it brand new with 00 miles before my test drive. I previously drove (and still own) a 1995 3000gt, it was my second one. I like the cars but they just don't interest me anymore. I'm excited about becoming a member of 350z community!

Here are a few pics I snapped with my iPhone. I will post better ones on Wednesday when it's done raining and I clean her up real nice!!!








Couple of small pics of the 95 3000gt

Thanks! I'm 110% sure that I will too!! The seats sold the car for me. (Not just the seats, but, they are damn fine seats!)

Nice car, I hope gas is cheaper in Northern Va. I'm paying 4 bucks in Northern California. Welcome to the Z family.

Built2shredZ...chill out. I love drop tops, but can you honestly say you like how the top looks up better than a sexy hardtop? Its just my opinion I guess. Good job on hijacking the thread. peace

First you say the roadster is weak looking now your saying you love convertibles... yes the coupe is nice looking, but when it comes to sex appeal its a distant second to the Roadster, IMO....

I guess I'm just tired of every time someone says they bought a Roadster some coupe **** comes into the thread and posts that the Roadster looks like crap... Gets old...

And no i'm not hijacking any thread, just supporting a fellow Roadster member...

Yes I am! I can see this forum is not to much diff. from my 3000gt forum (3si). LOL!!! Well, I love the hard tops too man! But the soft top is SSSOOOOO sexy in MY opinion. Up or down, but of course it always better when it's down. It's fully load with everything BUT nav. But seriously, I can install a nav myself as you can see from the pics of my 3000gt, and I have a freaking iPhone. Honestly though, Nav is over-rated. If you can't get around with out a computer telling you to make a left and right you might as well get yourself a chauffeur, LOL! Seriously.

My plans for her are simple. Tint the windows. Nismo Dual Cold Air Intake, Nismo Cat back, Cat-delete pipes and that's it.

Justin
