    Default Traded the E60 525 for a 2009 Nissan 370Z

    well i did searches in OT and the concensus for this car was that everyone hates it. its unfortuante hopefully i dont get flamed too bad but after driving this car on the lot with the new 6 speed manual rev matching syncro match transmission that sold me. this car is an absolute blast to drive and is very nice and tight.

    2009 Nissan 370 Z briliant Silver 8 miles on the odometer

    Base model with the Sports pacakge which comes with:

    6 speed Syncromatch transmisson
    Nissan Big Brake kit, 4 piston calipers front 2 piston in rear
    Viscous LSD in the rear
    19 inch Volk Racing Forged Wheels 19x9 in front and 19x10 in rear
    Bridgestone Potenza Tires
    Front and rear lip spoilers
    Rear deck spoiler
    painted splash guards

    on to the pix.

    Its not always about the looks, how fun a car is to drive has great influence. My 89 Mirage is ugly, but it is a blast to drive. Im not trying to compare my old car to your 370z though, hope you enjoy it.

    After seeing them in person, I like the 370Z a lot better. A replacement for that BMW though? Haha your choice...no big deal. Congrats!

    This is very true. I recently purchased an Alpine white 89' Gti 16v and I got so much crap from my friends for not getting another BMW to go along with my M3. To many amazing cars to stick with one brand

    Did you really just call an E60 525 ugly? I should whip it out and slap you across the face. No homo.

    And yeah, I know exactly where those pics were taken too. The car will have to grow on me, but from the pics it doesnt seem to be toooo bad. I bet it will just be an acquired taste.

    Everytime I see one of those, I think it has an underbite. Not a fan of them.

    Is the G-force any higher in the 370 than the 350? (for those who know why i'm asking)

    Wow, does this mean it's a car you might actually keep for awhile? It has a warranty.... can't mess that up! LOL


    Congrats. Bring it by sometime.

    Nice ride. Love those new Zs. A great update from the 350s IMO. I'd take the Z over a 525 anyday. Then again I think the only good looking 5 series is an M5 or a 550I with the MSport kit.

    They look horrible in pictures, but pretty good in person. I'd paint the lower grille all black to hide the cute little "fangs".

    Default eh

    Its much better than a BMW but the rev match tranny is for people who want to pretend they can drive. That just takes all the fun out of driving.
