Hi Guys

I've just sold a TVR Tamora after 2 years of fantastic fun and bought a 350Z in sunset red. I love the look, it sounds great and I'm looking forward to some great thrill motoring at a much more reasonable price than before.

Bring on Le Mans!!!!

Yep - it has the blue roof.
It does sound good - I'm looking at making it a little noisier though but want to do it without making it 'too noisy' if that makes sense wobble

I only got it on Saturday and because I am so used the noise of the Elise and the Sagaris it didn't seem noisy enough. Having been driving it through the week though I have found that I am getting to really like the tone of it - just need it louder.

Not sure this will make sense to anyone else but I know what I mean nuts

I'll get some pictures posted soon. I'll do a before and after Le Mans Stickers, so it could be a week or so yet.

Mrs Triple S, have you still got the Sagaris? I remember meeting you at BSJ on our first Le Mans 2 years ago. That car was beautiful!

I do know what you mean. I think there are some sound clips over on www.350z-uk.com (who are also a friendly bunch!). The Nismo sounds good but there are other options.

Insurance for me was another £60/year with a different exhaust yikes so I am not going down that route yet.

Yes I remember you wavey What a coincidence

Yes we still have the Sagaris. You are right - it is beautiful. Not sure it would be acceptable to put a pic on this forum though

Glad you are enjoying your new car.

bargain on the insurance...admiral wanted £50 of my hard earned for a sports air filter (panel, not even a cone filter / induction kit!)
