evolution380 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Hi Guys, Owned a few Jap cars over the years Evo VI, S15, R35 GTR but somehow missed the 350Z from my collection. I went through the jap phase in my 25-30'S, as I turned 30 my work balance too over a little with more commuting, more meetings etc. so I moved away from the jap scene. I've been driving a Range Rover Sport SDV8 for the past year and love it, great all around car, comfort, luxury and all the bells and whistles I could wish for great for those commutes, even fun on the country roads but missing the soul of the rising sun that Jap cars gave me. The 350Z I think will fill that role, I want something for track/drift days, occasional run out at the weekend etc. but ultimately it will be more of a project car. More importantly my old man is approaching his 60's and we've bonded more recently than ever before. We always had a joint fondness over my Jap cars and I'd like to re-introduce that. He's a mechanic so all modifications, work, servicing etc. it gives us a chance to do that together as well as track/drift days together. Look forward to learning more about the 350Z, purchasing one and the learning process which comes with it. Happy to be nearing my re-introduction within the jap car community. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loadmaster Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Welcome along - a touching story as well about your dad. I've owned my 370Z Nismo for nearly 11 months now and absolutely love it - so different from anything I've ever owned and driven before now. Good luck with your search.

Azurez33 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 That’s some lovely cars for your collection aside from the Range Rover 😉 atleast its a proper one! But I understand the drive ability of them is just so comfy and utilities. Good choice for the 350 though a great project and also a beast on the track! You’re in good hands here mate. Look forward to seeing some updates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanT Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Did a similar ish thing - 350’s are such great value for money and punch well beyond their weight. Great platform for a drive to - do trackday - drive back do it all package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicktZZZ Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Welcome new to 350s myself but bought one for similar reasons but bonding with my son who's getting in JDM and from what I read they make great projects, solid starting platform with loads of aftermarket support mods etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
