    And it is a 2003 Nissan 350Z Touring Package Edition!!!

    I still can't believe that I own one of these now!

    Got it for under $25K (before taxes) and has about 18K miles on it.

    I am fixing to drive it on the interstate; driving it around town today, I can tell that the engine was about to leap out as it was being restrained so much!

    I'll go further into details later as I have to leave.

    Anyone else here own a 350Z? Any stories you like to share?

    Cool, congrats Manny, that's the perfect car to be blasting Christina Aguliara(can't figure out how to spell it right) out of. :D J/K. Seriously, that car rocks, have fun and watch out for leadfoot disease b/c it could lead to ticketitis.

    wow - heck of a price. I keep thinking I want a new car, but I can't bring myself to purchase one. I always think "hey, this car still runs" and can't pull the trigger.

    I have loved the Z all my life. I wanted one forever and i couldn't afford it and neither could my parents.

    My first car was a 1979 280ZX Turbo which i was in love with. I wanted the 350 since i saw it since it is a blend of my 280 and the newers Z's

    I have already said i am going to buy one regardless eventualy in my life lol...

    Great buy Manny and Enjoy it. Beautiful car.

    That would be the perfect car for my future mid-life crisis.
