Default New 350z in Oklahoma

I needed a new daily driver and I have been in love with the Z's for a long time so I finally went out and picked up a 2006 350z. I have had it for a few weeks now I can honestly say I am hooked. There are a few things that I am going to change on the car to make it my own but otherwise it is staying stock. It needs a new radio so I can connect my ipod and phone, new wheels since I am not of fan of chrome (going black) and new exhaust to make it sound a little better. I do need to find a way to black out the door handles though. I also own a '98 Jeep XJ that is now my bad weather/trail toy. The Jeep is going to receive most of my money. Anyway, here are some pics. The Jeep next to it is mine. The interior lights are now blue LED's. I have always wanted to change my cars interior lights away from basic white and I broke down and finally did it. They were simple drop in bulbs and I am pleased with how they turned out. I don't have a camera that can take good night shots so there are no pictures.

Welcome to the forum!

If you ever make it up to Tulsa, you should stop by the shop.

Welcome to the team! The car is gorgeous. Even though mine is black, I've always thought the blue 2006 Z was the best looking 350Z out there. Very nice choice!

Welcome!

I wish I had the time and space to get a Cherokee. They are such fun toys!

Its funny because the XJ was my first car, bought it off my parents when I turned 16. they bought it new in '98. It has been on several cross country trips including a move from MD to FL and a year later FL to OK. It was great to have when I went to school up in VT. There were several times where I was the only vehicle that was able to get out of the parking lot.

I got really lucky with the color. I haven't seen to many of them but this one just happened to be in my price range and with the mileage I was looking at so I jumped on it. Its an automatic but I am actually glad for that. I love driving stick but not on a daily driver. I get too frustrated in stop and go traffic with a standard. Hopefully soon I can take it to a track and have fun with it.

Already done haha. The pics are from the day I bought it. The dealer decal actually came off extremely easy. Thanks for the info about the club, I will be checking it out.
