Augh. No one can seem to find me a red 370 that isn't a demo. The found a yellow but I turned it down. I don't think I would be able to drive a yellow car.

(I guess I thought I wouldn't like 'solar orange' at first either though)

Hang in there, keep pushing. One will "suddenly become available" when they realize you will take nothing but red. They can transfer cars from dealer to dealer.

If you settle for yellow, you will always long for the color you really wanted.

Hey Yancy how did you find the 06+ headlights so quickly??

I saw you post the wanted ad a couple weeks ago, but surprised you got it already!

Did you get your Nismo kit from M1 auto?

Yeah they lowered production of the car to make room for other things.
They are hard to get thats for sure.

Mine took a 4 month order to get it..

Just keep telling them you will NOT settle, you should not have to for a 40,000 car

I actually found them on ebay. Got lucky. . . the guy had just blown his motor and was selling these to get money for the repairs. I got the front bumper from M1. Pretty good fitment for not being oem. I got the Nismo USDM sides from Performance Nissan. I'm hoping to have my completed car back on Wed, but we'll see. They need to finish wetsanding and polishing and put it back together.

Thanks bro. I really liked the way it looked too, but I had to switch things up a bit since my Z has been like this for about 4 years now. The 2 tone nismo is going to look sick.

Yep. I did. I am guessing they just have to look further than they want to. No rush from me on it. My loan check is good for another month and the day I traded I got a call about my car from a fella in the area wanting to buy.

I can't speak more highly of AutoEurope... They overnight shipped me a turn signal light last year when mine popped out on the way to the dragon. free of charge. They take unbelievable care of my car for services. Just two weeks ago I came back from the dragon to have the car inspected for its 14k service warranty check. I didn't clean it on on the way down to the dragon, during ZdayZ and then all the way back up. It was nasty looking. They took it next door to the detail shop and the guy did it for free since he was a fellow tail of the dragon enthusiast. These guys time and time again prove they WANT to keep your business.

I'd be down to drive around Woodward Wednesday after I pick up my new 370.

It'll be nice to meet some of you folks since I missed the last meet.

Alright, I am thinking a week night will make it harder for people to get there.

Friday night, or sat night will probably be better.
What is everyone's thought.

Sat night is easier for me, but this is an everyone thing.
Post up when you can make it!!!

OK Sat night looks to be the best for everyone.
It also looks like the rain will be gone by early afternoon. Given weather men have no $%^&ing clue what they are talking about.
