What can I say? Everytime I saw one I drooled. Went to drive one Sunday and it was love at first drive. I loved my G. It is the best of what it is. It is a luxury rocket for sure. I'm just more of a woman/machine kind of driver. This really fits me to a T.

Thanks SVT, that makes me feel good. :)

It is a 6 speed for sure. That is what I missed the most. I had nothing to play with. It is very plain Jane. Like I had said before...the economy was a lot better when I bought my G. I don't even have leather. I really like my seats though. I think they look nice and I don't have to worry about them cracking in a year! The things I will miss the most is my heated seats/back up camera and the way my iPod hooked up to the radio. This one plays an iPod, but through the headphone jack so it doesn't charge it and I have to change the songs myself. Oh well....whatever!

The first mod I think I would ever make on the car is the radio. As loud as I listen to my music, I get a lot of distortion.

I think I got a great deal. It is a '10. It is new, but a '10. I got 24k for my car and paid 28k for it. I didn't think 4k difference was that bad.

I went by there today because they left out my mats. Skyler is all shined up and in the very front facing the main street. He was a good car. I wish I could afford both....well, 3 with my Camaro. :crazy:

One small mod I want to make first off. I am a fanatic about having a license plate frame. I usually just have a nice plain black one. I found one on Amazon that is brushed stainless with just a Z on it. It is 40 bucks, but I think it would really look good. What do you think?

That is a great deal!!! I've seen a used 08 with 12k miles for $25k recently!!
I like the plate too.
Here in NC, you can not have one that covers the state name or stickers. All of the dealerships had to get new ones.

Nice finally you did it.Happy for you.

I'd say you got a great deal.I have been thinking to change for awhile. I thought first to just get a new G but I might just get a little car for the DD and get something sporty for the weekend. But first now my wife needs a new ride and just bought 1 more house so I will have my hands full.I will do it next year.

I've been thinking of taking this change to, a lot. I really want a 11' Nismo edition. They are faster, but not much, but they are. I'm surprised you got that much for your car. Trust me, when you go on a long trip you will miss the comforts of the G, and the space.

Good find! Why didn't you get a black one! heheheheh

Black car....NEVER NEVER NEVER AGAIN! :tisk: Beautiful but not a good color for a perfectionist.

Don't have to worry about trips. We always travel in my hubby's F150. 99.9% of the time I'm the only person in my vehicle.

The dealership I got mine from has a 40th anniversary. It is a beauty.

Zo...why so many houses?

Z's are nice! I wanted one...but didn't want to go without a backseat. I was also seriously looking at a 2003-4 Z06 vette...but again the backseat was a major drawback. The G35 was a good compromise.

Feel free to visit this side of NICO anytime ;)

For rent. Just pure investment. A little different here than in the states. Housing never went down here.Still rising. This is my 3rd one include where I live. I need 2-3 more lol. But for now $$$$ I am done. Maybe another 4-5 years and get more. Taking ownership on the 28th. Already rented out. It is a townhouse in a pretty nice area.

It's beautiful - congrats! I drool over Z's every time I see them. Weak stereo is a bummer - good luck with the upgrade. Nice to have a manual though, right? :yesnod You've got the same engine so we're all in the same family. :bigthumb:

Gigi was my "family car" purchase - we now have a 4-month old.

Oh...congrats!

My children are 22 and 27 so I can have what I want.

This car's name is Z-Bo. I don't know if anybody keeps up with the NBA, but the Memphis Grizzlies have a player, Zach Randolph that we call Z-Bo. Thus the name. ;)

Thanks! Enjoy Z-Bo...

I find it ironic that I drool over Z's while I have the same engine in my car and all this comfort & space, and still spectacular handling. Just that awesome sports car look I guess. (can't find the drooling smilie)
