sidekickdmr Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 ive wanted a z for years but only picked up my new car this weekend, its a 2008 58 facelift 350z, only done 6,000 miles since new. Here is me doing the swap at the dealers And some pics of the car after its first clean Sorry about the pants pics, just on my iphone and doesnt do the colour justice! First reactions: It sounds unbeliveble, feels quicker than my r26 and delivers the power in a different manner (no waiting for boost, just power all the time). It does drink more fuel though, so far I have adveraged 23mpg. The colour attracts some attention too, its called temper orange and its a limited edition and they only made a handfull. All in alll im a very happy bunny! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronzee Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Lovely Solar Orange/Temper. The colour really comes alive in bright sunlight doesn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycey Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Looks sweet, I've always liked the look of the R26, what is it like to drive, (might one day have to be the family car if my wife gets her way) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidekickdmr Posted September 21, 2010 Author Share Posted September 21, 2010 Cheers all Boycey, I loved the r26, I've actually had two, a liquid yellow and that glacier White! If I needed a family hatch it would get my vote! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
