Hey all. Got this a cpl weeks ago. 2007 Enthusiast. I had been looking around alot for used HR's and there was not much in the tri-state area... finally found one up near Scranton PA, but it had 90k miles. So I went up and test drove it (a couple times), and to my relief it felt very smooth, very responsive (and fun as ****). Carfax was clean, maintenance was regular, and the car is spotless inside and under the hood.


So I traded in my 05 Maxima w/ 50k miles and just over a grand. Threw on an 08 Dodge Avenger 6" antenna, some Ichiba 25mm spacers I bought from a fine member of this forum, some stealth front turn signal bulbs and superwhite parking bulbs, and here we are.


Plan on a few other minor things. Ordered a pair of blacked out side markers from another member here (Flipper), thinking about an Invasion rear spoiler, Rear wiper/nozzle delete, LED Interior Dome Lights, possibly some bolt-ons later this year (I really like the torque of this thing as is).

My priority right now tho is getting the trans, coolant, brake & P steering fluid replaced, replacing the drive belts, checking the brake system, and cleaning the fuel system.

Site seems packed with info and I look forward to utilizing the wisdom. Glad to finally own a Z!

Well, the Max was clean. It was just I was modding it so much trying to make it look like something sportier. Figured why not just get the car I really wanted.
