Aw, poor Scion
The yellow Z is a nice replacement.
PA gets snow? Keep the current rims and for snow tires and get new rims with summer tires.

From a TC to a 350z? That's analogous to stepping up from a bottle of bootshine vodka to grey goose.

Holy crap! Looks like you took a serious hit in the rear ..no jokes intended. Hope you didnt get too injured. I'm still dealing with back problems I aquired while being rear-ended some time ago.

I like your Yellow Roadster tho. I have to say I am partial to the hard tops but something about the convertible in yellow looks very nice.


Congrats and welcome!

Well thanks everyone. I'm sooo happy that I got the Z instead of another scion. But I still miss my scion, I didn't have her long enough!

So does anyone have any ideas for my car? I don't know what to do first.... everything is alot more expensive then the scion parts!!

Old school volvo stationwagons are no joke. When I was driving my Celica a Volve hit me. He jacked up my rear and he left with just a little bit of my paint on his rubber black bumper. Jerk.

The 1st thing i did was change the front bumper lenses to clear. Next was the rims and tires. I'm going to be putting on the factory wing & dropping the car. Tints are cool. I refuse to get tints on the Z because the cops give me hard time in my 97 Acura CL thats tinted.

Well I plan on getting it tinted, lightly. I just can't stand all the looks I get. But I saw the clear front bumper lenses, but I didn't think they would look good with my color. I also saw the ones that were smoked, I think they might look better.

I definitely co-sign the smoke bumper lenses frt & bk. That will go very nice with the black top and tints.

Sharp color...and tires/rims would be my first choice. Not a big fan of those stock rims. nice tires and rims are going to set you back so just enjoy driving it the way it is for now.

agreed

and I know you said looks first, but perhaps you might want to consider an intake or like a JWT popcharger? I'm installing one myself today on my Z. More than anything, it will just give it a nice mean sound! (and maybe a few extra horses while you;re at it)
