Default New Z Owner.......Sort Of

Hey guys, I just wanted to say how happy I am to be a 350Z owner......again! I had a 2004 DB Base but sold it a little over a year ago since I was going to live overseas. I bought an E34 BMW but the Z was always in the back of my mind. Fast-forward and here I am just waiting for my 2008 SMB Enthusiast to arrive at the port! The Z34 did cross my mind, but I coudn't pass up the oppurtunity to own an HR Z. Anyway, here are some pics from the dealership. These were taken before I took delivery of the vehicle, so I apologize for the car's less than presentable appearance.

That's nice! Are you in Germany? Doesn't Germany have the longer euro license plates? Not sure it'll fit with that back bumper...

Thank you and yes, I'm in Germany. We get the short US-spec license plates for the back, and the longer European plates for the front. I bought a Zee Bracket so hopefully that would work so I don't have to drill on the front bumper.

Thanks again. I wasn't a big fan of the SMB and was kind of disappointed to find out the DB wouldn't be available for the 2008 MY. Now I love it, plus it looks a bit more "grown up" than the DB.

I know what you mean, I didn't like it at first. It just grew on me as time went by. Besides, I wanted to get another blue Z and the DB has been discontinued so I didn't really have a choice but to like it .

Here are some pics I took of my Z. The car finally got here last week and it's been great. I'll take some more pics when it's waxed and the weather's a little nicer.

Thanks. Actually, I only have one Z. The DB was sold a little over a year ago. But yeah, you don't see a lot of 350Zs around here. It's more common to see a 911 than a Z.
