Talking New owner 2008 350Z

Finally after 8 months of looking i found this beauty. 2008 350z, 20k miles, 6 speed, Touring with sport package.

I am a previous owner of another zed that was burning 1 liter of oil a week. I traded it in when I bought this yesterday.

If it's exactly what you wanted, price doesn't matter imho; was just curious. Looks really clean. What are your plans? DD, track car, stance, etc.?

DD until i find a truck. My plans for it are
- Exhaust (Nismo or motordyne)
- Test pipes
- KN air filters
- New deck
- New tires
- Window tint nothing too crazy 20-25%
- New rims for summer and stock rims for winter

Keep it pretty much stock except for exhaust and maybe in the future plenum spacer and Osiris tune.

GT's are hard to come by, funny you want to use those stock Rays as winter wheels, let me know if you want to sell them!

Congrats!

Brembos, Ray's, and doesn't have the ugly orange interior! That's about the only car I would give up my '03 for.....Congrats!

BTW, those wheels are screaming for some 275/35/19 and 255/40/18.

They don't make plenum spacers for hr. Hint why there is a bulge on the hood.

i think that you just detailed yours so much that the black wore off and that is why yours are orange.....

Hahaha those seats never had a chance to get black on them! Clean them once a week! Lol but if you don't they do discolor quickly, BMW's had the same problem with the imola red interior.

I love the burnt orange interior! Took me a year to find a black 08 GT with low miles, factory nav and burnt orange interior.

Hope you're as happy with your GT as I am with mine OP! Beauty of a buy you got there!
