    [ mr.brightside - 2006 350Z Enthusiast - 1992 EH2 K20 Hatchback ]

    So for those of you who don't know, I had my 2005 SSM EP3 up for sale on ClubEP3 & Honda-Tech, and ended up selling it to a local buyer on craigslist. A week later, I purchased my dream car...a Nissan 350Z. It's kinda funny cause the 350z was almost my first car before the EP3. When I was shopping for a car 5 to 6 years ago, I was at a dealer looking at a 2004 Track Edition Z with my parents, and we were negotiating the price for like 3 hours and just couldn't afford their asking price. We left and I was dissappointed and we went to a Carl's Jr. to eat. While we were eating, my dad was like..."Hey, that was a good deal...Let's just go back and buy it!" So we're driving back, only a couple blocks and when we get there they closed up shop. The next day we went to Honda and my parents bought me a brand new 2005 Civic Si. I enjoyed the car very much and really fell in love with it. So letting go of it was difficult. So this purchase really means a lot to me because it's truly my car. I used my own hard-earned money to buy the Z straight up and the pink slip is in my name. So I think this car is real special and I'm sure I'll love babying this car as much as the EP3.

    Plans for the Z:
    Nada! Other than replacing the stock tires I plan on keeping this car as stock as possible (hopefully). I bought this car because I wanted something fast and fun to drive everydaywhile I spend my money on my eh2 project. The EP3 was like a virgin and deserved to stay that way. Anyways, I just washed and waxed my baby so enjoy the pics. Excuse my dirty garage.

    Modifications:

    DynamixComputers 8" Touchscreen
    JVC CD/DVD/MP3 Head Unit
    Rear camera

















    Stay tuned for more pics of the Z...My insurance kicks in during the week so I'll take it somewhere nice and take some pics.

    Goodbye my Friend


    Thanks for looking!

    Yea, this one was a great deal...I've only driven it for a day but it's just so much different than the ep3. I'm still learning about the car and getting used to the feel of everything and im loving it so far. I almost slept in it last night, haha. But if your really looking for a z, i reccommend an 07+...There weren't any 07s in my price range, let alone in my area so I couldn't source one out. But this had everything I wanted...Silver, Stock, Manual, and an In-Dash Touchscreen thing so I had to have it!

    haha i know i know!!! I still miss her and it really was hard to see her go but it was for the better! It went to anice home too...the kid I sold it to was only 18 and his mom actually bought it for him and drove it home even. They are nice folks and called me back recently to tell me how much they are enjoying the car.


    anyways...i updated my first post with some background info and pictures of the Z
