Default getting my z in 2 more days

gonna be picking up a 2006 350z enthusiast in just 2 more days! I've dreamed of owning this sexy masterpiece of a car for years now and now my dream is about to come true. I didn't really hear much about it until I bought my rx8 a few years ago, and then I seen it. all over the place I seen videos about the 350z vs rx8 and I just fell in love with the z. as for the rx8, I was ok in the fun factor, but the torque was a joke and it just didn't really put a smile on my face. it was great around curves but that was about it. after a while I started having major engine issues and had to get rid of it. (owed 9k on it and had 7k in engine work to have it running again). anyways, never go with the rotary! now currently I have an 07 nissan pathfinder and an 07 kawasaki ninja 650r. gonna trade them both in for a beautiful red 350z. paperwork is already finished, just have to wait till I get a day off from work to pick her up. took a while to actually get my hands on one as well, the 350z sells like crazy around here. dealerships usually keep them on the lot for about 2 days max and they're gone! but anyways, I finally grabbed one and put down a deposit to have the car lot hold on to it for dear life. just sitting in this car puts a smile on my face. the day I get to pick it up can't get here fast enough!!!

I know you can't wait to get your Z!

I can relate...
I bought my 03 new when they first came out.Few were in the dealerships.
The ones they had were not what I wanted.
Had to order.
Took almost 3 months.The dealer kept me informed at every step along the way ---the building of the car in Japan.I got a call one morning from my dealer rep saying that my Z was loaded on a transport ship,headed toward the U.S.He even gave me the name of the ship.
On New Years Day 2003,the call came.
She was here...at the dealer...ready for pickup.

Still have the photo of my Z sitting in the key display space outside the showroom.

She looks different today from the mods I've done.
I think,improved...

Some cars are just different.They have what I call,SOUL.

A Z is one of those unique and special cars!

Enjoy yours!

Had mine for 5 years, 55k miles and still loving it like the first day I bought it~! Welcome to the best car you'll own if you can forgive the sounds and the beating you'll receive from the doors and hatch!

Hope you don't miss the practicality of the Pathfinder, but you'll find they can be fairly practical for a two seater really.

ok, to answer duckeee, no I'm a guy.

and now to make it official. I'm now the proud owner of the 2006 nissan 350z enthusiast model, color is redline red, and yes I finally have some pics of it. some aren't very great looking but here you go, I'm sure there's gonna be more to come. also tossed in that pick of my pathfinder about to head to the dealership. (last pick of the 2 red cars are my 350z and my uncle's g35 lined up in the shop. can't see it that good though, I'll try to get a better pick soon.)
