Default Success!

Well, after looking for a while, checking out a few Z's locally(all of which turned out to be P.O.S, owners didn't take care of them), I finally bought one.

It's a pearl white, 2008 base, with 17k miles. I'm not the biggest fan of the wheels (Lorenzos WL 21's), but they came with the car.

I plan on getting some spacers, and possibly dropping it.... other than that I'm just going to go with it stock until I can figure out what I want to do with it.










Pics aren't very good quality... oh well.

No, they're not 21" WL21 is just the wheel model http://www.lorenzowheels.com/wheels.html#wl21

You're right, the wheels need to go. Other than that, looks good. Although, your photos look like the set of a Barbara Walters interview. That's more bloom lighting that Fable 1 and 2 combined.

Yeah. I'm forced to use this P.O.S polaroid that I've had for a while. Hopefully I'll get something better soon, probably not, but maybe.

Anyway, the wheels will be the first thing gone.

CongratZ and welcome. I congratulate you for being patient and not buying the first Z you ran across. It pays off in the end.

Don't waste your time on spacers. Get rid of those wheels ASAP.
