Saw a 350Z today! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Today, when coming back from my summer job on construction, I was waiting for the bus (I haven't found a decent 240 here yet  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'> ) I spotted a sexy goldish-yellow sports coupe heading my way down the street. After about half a second of it stopping near me in traffic, I rose my eyebrows and immediately knew what it was... a new 350Z.

I didn't even think they were out yet, at least not for a few more weeks? It didn't have any decals on it indicating a demo or dealer version, so I was surprised to see it.

In any case, that thing was sexy, online pictures just don't do it justice.

there are 3 at my local Nissan Dealership. beautiful, two silvers and one black. I talked to a salesperson and he said their first 14 are already sold, and there are no dealer versions for a while, they're just too hot. it's true, you gotta see em with your own eyes.

yup only pre ordered Zs are at the lots. there wont be any Zs for the rest of us for a few more monthes. also the rx-8 will be here in march next year.

I saw a silver one this past weekend!
I guess they were in town because of the Monterey Historic races.
Every kind of exotic car you can imagine.

I saw like 5 or 6 of them on a truck going up to las vegas 2 days ago when I was out on the road too. Everyone was passing the truck but I stayed right next to it. The trucker probly thought I was crazy  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

'> They were all silver except one that was that gold color.
