Smile I broke down and purchased a Z

After a couple of years of trying to decide what to buy I finally bought a 2006 GT. I was going to buy a 370 but this car came up and I could not pass it up. It has only 25000 miles on it and it has the factory nav. The only mod on the car is a cold air intake. I also replaced the tires with 255/40ZR18 and 285/35ZR19 Nitto Invos. I'm really enjoying being a Z owner.

After a couple of years you did pretty well from the look of it.

I'm also convinced that it is better than a 370.


I'm just not sure what I want to change on the car. I definitely want performance mods but as for wheels and suspension I'm not sure. I really like the Rays that it came with.

Either that's not a GT or they upgraded the brakes and wheels... If I'm not mistaken, you have yourself a Track.
