Default From a S to a Z

well all of you S2k members, I have traded in my S2k for 03 Nissan 350Z coupe.
I mostly did it cause the car was about to hit 100k miles and the clutch was going to need to be changed soon. I love the tq of the V6 and its more roomier. I also have a bigger trunk too. I'm sure in the spring i'll want the convertible, but i was tired of worrying if someone was going to cut my top. as for getting an automatic it still has tiptronic. i seem to be getting stuck in traffic alot more and my left leg can only take so much. I'm quite happy with the purchase. the exhaust sound is so nice. well here arepics.
I would still like to join you at drives and shows. I'd also like to stay on as CO. thats if you want me to but i'm still going to come in here and say hi.

I dig the Z car and I like that Nissan seems to honor and respect the history...lots of aftermarket support...there is nothing not to like.

Enjoy and good luck!

what the heck stay on as CO and as soon as Ryan sells his, none of the COs will have an S - hey wait Scott wasn't that a rule or something you need an S to be a CO oh i see only when i didn't have an S that rule was in affect

well no. i obv know that 100k is baby miles on a Honda. i just felt like something different. i think the winter blues didn't help either. when i test drove the Z i just had a big smile everytime i accelerated. the tq is so much noticable then the S. plus i find that i don't have to floor the pedal just to get up to speed. i also find that i don't drive fast anymore. when i'm on the highway i just cruise along. i guess i'm just getting old.
Hey bass what does Lynda have for a car now???

You must be getting old if you bought an automatic!
