Default Just bought an '03

So I have been trolling here for a few months during my search for a Z and just wanted to say hi and thanks for all the great advice/insight. I got a beautiful '03 Touring with just under 30,000 miles for 15k. As soon as I give it a nice wash and wax I will post up some pics.

Here it is. I love driving this thing. I am used to driving a jeep wrangler so it's an entirely different experience.

looks great. Ive always been hesitant of buying cars with aftermarket parts, but whoever you got this from did a great job. Those wheels and shaved bumper give u a great kick start..

Yea me too. The only things the previous owner did was he replaced the front bumper, extended the rear bumper and added 19" wheels. I've got to get a picture of the back on here, I love the look. Under the hood it's completely stock as he wasn't much of a racing guy. Only sold it because his wife is pregnant.

As of right now, the only thing I want to do get some tint on the windows and change the stereo. I spend 2 hours on the road for work every day so I don't want to start changing things under the hood just yet.

Nice car, I bought a 03 a couple months ago with 29K miles, it had some mods too.
I'm not a big fan of the forums but i will post some pics of my car later on.
Again, Congratulations!

So it won't catch you by surprise, be advised that '03's have a few bugs, but they're minor nuisances that won't leave you stranded on the road. Engine, cooling system, electrical system , etc., are great. Let's hope you don't have the feathering issue, one of the bad "minor nuisances"/pain-in-the-neck problems.
