Default New Owner of an '06 350z!!

Hey everyone, just picked up my new '06 350z enthusiast today with a 6 spd manual. I actually traded an individual my '01 Mustang GT and $5,500 for it. I know everything about mustangs but absolutely nothings about 350Z's so im really looking forward to learning more about em. Anyways i picked up the car today; it has a k&n intake, nismo short throw shifter, hi-flow cats and exhaust i dont remember what brand I'm already in love with this car it doesnt even compare the mustang i owned and i dont see myself going back to a mustang anytime soon if ever. Here's the car let me know what you guys think:


I know its nothin to look at yet but it will be by the time im done with it. Any opinions on maybe some mods i should do, or good aftermarket part sites are greatly appreciated

One mod you may want to consider is a Motordyne Mrev2 and Spacer.

He should positively, absolutely, check the oil every 500 miles at least during the first few months of ownership to see if he bought/traded for a major oil consumer.
