Default Finally Bought a Z

Well, I bought my first Z back in June, June 1st to be exact. Here was my first experience when I was looking...

https://my350z.com/forum/new-owners/...hree-days.html

Well I took everyone's advice and kept looking. I ended up trolling on here for a little bit, decided I only wanted a 2007 or 2008 because I wanted an HR, and I decided I wanted a base because after reading about the stock VLSD, it was no longer an important option to me as I would probably want to upgrade it in the future.

So I ended up buying a 2007 350z Base with 41K miles for $17,000. It was a little dirty when I bought it, and it was a very rainy day...

Here are some pictures of the car the morning after I got it home...













I washed it up and took a few more pictures...


















I am very, very, very happy with my car! I have put an Agency Power Ti exhaust on the car, which I really enjoy as well.

I also wanted to say, I love this site. I have been able to find an answer for EVERY question I have had so far. This site is super easy to find information, and there are a ton of people on here with great information! I guess I just wanted to say thanks, and keep the great info coming!

Thanks everyone!

Actually, before I bought the exhaust, I had 35% tints done on the sides and rear. And the car actually came with some Hotchkis lowering springs, which I could do without, but it does give the car a little cleaner look.

Isn't funny, after all these years, that's the first time I've seen a pick of what I presume are the base model pedals.

CongratZ newbie, looks tidy.
