Default Dream come true!!!
Hi everyone. I bought my 350Z late last night and I am still so excited. I'm 25 years old and wanted to buy my dream car before I have kids!

When I finished school, I bought an 09 Civic Si but I felt like I was driving a high schoolers car. I loved hitting the 8k redline, but I was also slightly embarassed because it sounded like a streetbike on four wheels. The Civic was a fun car to drive, but it was a sedan, and I've got no use for a backseat at this stage in my life.

I have great respect for the power of this car. WOW! How could I ever have had a FWD car??? Just cruising through town, I can feel how amazing the handling is and am enjoying not having to redline to merge onto the freeway...

At the lot.


Final goodbye to the Civic...


Welcome home!


2008 Base Z with 24k miles.

Congrats! I got mine when I was 25 also. Mature enough to stay safe, but still stupid enough to go WOT on the streets haha.
