Default Finally picked up my Z

Finally picked up my Z. Thanks all for helping me decide to go with VLSD. Picked up my '08 Black on black Touring today.

Some "fresh off the lot" quick shots:

You'd be surprised. A friend of mine just picked up an Audi A6. Brand spanking new. It looks like it was washed with something which was previously dropped on the ground a few times. Horrible swirls.

Anyway, i put about 250 miles (variable RPM) on the car today. I don't know if it is the 2 doors, 2 seats or everything together but the car feels different from any car i owned before. In fact, i don't know how to say it but... i like it more than my Evo IX MR (which i sold last fall). Something about the Z that just feels very right.

Really? I think the Z looks 10x better than an EVO, but I want a turbo car so bad... hopefully soon I have the best of both worlds and turbo my Z this summer.

I remember when I first got mine home. I pulled into the garage and spent the whole night putting on zaino. After 5 coats, with cs, that is a shine.

My brother is a photography expert. He took these quick shots. He runs AccessPhoto.com so if anyone wants to do photoshoots (unfortunately for a fee) i could give his contact info.
