I'm Feeling the Woo Hoo....
Hi guys and gals...
After months of research on this DB and other sites, talking to owners, and test driving LOTS of cars, I decided on a "new to me" 06 MT silver "Grand Touring" Roadster. The ZR came with 28,000 miles on the clock and it is spotless. I don't think I've ever seen a cleaner, newer looking used car in my life! And for those keeping track, I paid $22K for my new ride...
It was a tough decision as I was really on the fence thinking about this car v a C6. Since I knew I would pay cash for my Z, I wanted to buy the newest/lowest mileage vehicle I could find,and at the best price possible.
The car seems to run just fine. With 29K miles on her, I am hoping any oil consumption issue that may have occurred, occurred earlier in the cars life!
Since I have another 6K before the Nissan's warranty runs out, I'll monitor the oil usage quite carefully...
I drove it for the first time today, a 35 mile spin down the freeway to Fountain Valley CA. Very comfy for my 6-2 frame, and reasonably quiet with the top up (it was raining...
).
I can see Good Times ahead!

It's gonna be fun
Hey thanks, guys...I'm eagerly looking forward to learning more about my car, and enjoying it.
I go and buy a Roadster, and then it rains. Probably the first time it's rained here in sunny Glendora CA since LAST spring.
Go figure.Cheers,

It was a great deal!
Thanks...I figured $22k for this trim level was pretty good. OTOH, the brand new 08s are going pretty cheap around here. I don't think the Nissan dealers can unload their inventories, AND combine that with the "belt tightening" that the banks are passing onto the customers there are some good deals out there!
