Hey everyone, been lurkin for a little on this site, and finally decided to buy myself a 2008 Nissan 350z Base. So far, I love it! The only thing I'm getting used to is the low clearance (I have a steep driveway XD, but I've managed to build a good ramp for no scrape ). A little impractical for where I live, but who cares! Haven't really had time to get out there and take a real good pic with school and work, but I have a few.

I paid 16k for it with 60k miles, it also came with an AEM cold air intake. Bad deal? XD

Few questions:

I'm looking for a decent sound system (stock system is mehhh) to be my first upgrade. Any recommendations? Everyone here is saying the Kenwood DDX470 is a good unit to start with. Now should I run speakers through that, if so what are my limitations? Or should I buy a 4 channel amp and some speakers and a mono 1 channel for the sub? I know it depends on how good of a system I want, but let's just say I'm looking for an above average system with clean bass (maybe I don't even need a sub? keep in mind I'm not trying to blast the socks off people in public ).



Well that about does it, let me know what you guys think!

 

Congrats and welcome to the forum. I'd say the price you paid is more in the sellers favor than yours.

 

Yeah, I thought it was a little much, I kinda jumped on it quick. I was originally going to get a Subaru WRX. What is considered a good price for these vehicles? jw

 

Depends on how good you are at negotiating lol. I usually check book values then work from there. Start with a "semi lowball" then work up from there. I got my 08 with 39k miles for 16.7k in August of 2012

 

Congrats

 

That's awesome! Yeah I won't lie I'm not the best, I worked him down like 500 bucks but it was at a dealership and he really said he wouldn't go lower (LIES!!!). Oh well, I feel happy about it and I guess that's all that matters XD

 

Steep driveways can be trouble.Especially if you have a front lip.
Got to take e'm at an angle--if you can.
Good lookin Z!

 

i love the color
