I've had a Sentra before as a loaner and it SUCKED something fierce! Had it for almost two weeks. Couldn't wait to get back in my Z.

Man, i don't know. I don't think i could ever own anything that wasn't sport oriented. The altima seats are more like chairs, the steering is sloppy (compared to a Z), trans is slow to respond. No key is cool though and its way quieter. Still, I don't know what i am going to do when i have to get something practical.

Get the Superleggera Amuse kit, but it must be in dry carbon, anything else would not be sufficient.

I miss my Z already.

Dude, that's awesome....Congrats !

Jobs are hard to get these days, maybe it's a sign that the times are looking up.

I work in Las Colinas....but for you that's a hefty drive isn't it ?

Nice, where do you work? Actually, it's not a bad drive at all maybe 15-20 min. I used to work in Arlington. That drive is brutal lol.
