I just got my new Z!!! Well really I bought it Dec 30th, 2008, but I just found this forum as I have just started thinking about modifying my car. I felt I got an alright deal, brand new 2008, base model, manual trans. The only thing extra on the car was floor mats, splash guards and a net, which I dont really think are "extras." Anyway I payed $25,384. To be quite honest, even if I payed too much I dont care... Ive been driving a damn chevy cavlier for 8 years, and to go from that garbage to this machine is amazing. Ive had it for 4 months now and I have 8,600 miles on it. I cant stop driving this thing!!! Im glad I found this site, lots of good information. I'm gonna read some more before I start with all my newb questions. My plans for upgrading are tires/rims(19in) -> complete sound system overhaul -> a spoiler(just the little one that hugs the car, not an airplane wing...) -> I dunno after this. Im starting to ramble so here is a pic... and again, Im glad I found this site.

Welcome to the community. Don't drive the wheels off the car. That's a fair bit of mileage for 4 months. Have fun out there.

Welcome. Beautiful Z ya got there. A base HR Z is the fastest stock 350 money can buy. All time BEST first mod is to mod the driver--there really is no way to appreciate this car without opening it up on a track. Start here: https://my350z.com/forum/autocross-road-305/
