Talking New '04 Z owner... So this is love.. (pics + video!) ***

Hello all,

I just bought a blue '04 350z, and I can honestly say it is THE best car I have ever driven. Handling wise, power wise, etc...

Here's my story: I come from owning an '03 Hyundai Tiburon that I turbo'ed to about 280whp, won some 1/4 mile events locally (I live in El Salvador), loved, busted two engines, and finally made the decision to buy a Z...

I am loving the car to death, and I get a boner every time I see it/get into it. 76k miles, just changed spark plugs + air filter (CAI), runs FINE. $8,200 cash, everything works, all blinkers / windows work, A/C is colder than ice, 0-60 in about 6-ish...

Here's the pics and video:










... And I love making videos of my rides, so I started making some crazy ones already LOL ...


Here's my first video I made of her:

PS - (yes I know that pic i used in the video is NOT my car, i used it because i didn't have any frontal pics at the time, lol!.. still, wanted to show the closest thing to my car possible, will fix video soon / make better runs etc)


All comments are welcome. Suggestions? Stuff to check? Suggestions on mods? I'm all ears.

Thanks for any feedback guys, I *love* my Z.

Dude,you are quite the film maker!
Enjoy that Z.Keep doing what you are doing.
Drive it!
The 350 is one of the few unique cars that have a "soul".
I'm sorry,but a bit of that "soul" went away with the 370.
Out the many cars I've owned over the years,only a handful
had this feeling that there was something more than just
a body with a engine.Something deeper inside that makes this car
a part of you.
To be sure,the Z can possess you.It will want the best.
At times,you will find like many others, that you have to
feed the beast with the many mods that you can conjure up.
But,thats what will give you the enjoyment,the satisfaction...

Depending on your wallet,the first thing I'd do is get some new
wheels.The OEM 17's may look good now.But,they will quickly become
dated.I'd suggest some 19's wIth appropriate rubber.Check the threads on
this forum for styles and pick the one that fits YOU!.

Good luck and keep us updated on your Z!
