Finally after 1 week of waiting (due to a typo i made on the loan application -.-") got the loan approved and the money was in my account for me to get my new car today :D

Boughts me a cherry red 1989 300ZX with a twin turbo engine, automatic transmission, 2 + 2 seats and targa top. Cost $9,000 down from the original asking price of $12,000. I love it!

It's 10pm atm and i just got home after driving around organizing the money and contracts and forms the entire day since 1pm. Too dark now but will post pics tomorrow, on the way home just then i pulled off the roof panels ad it was amazing. After driving pretty much just sedans for the past 3-4 years, the power of this car is quite a change.

This is a dream come true, the 300ZX is pretty much my favorite car ; i've loved the Nissan Fairlady since i first started learning how to drive many years ago and i finally got one.

Also on a side note my server came in the mail 2 days ago so this is a good week for Rish! :D
 
Spiffy, when I got my car I loved it so much lol. I still do and I won't be driving any other model (xterra) for the foreseeable future. The car is a beast, it can take such a beating.
Hopefully you love your car too =p
 
Sadly the battery compartment for my camera is broken so cant take pics today :( I could use my phone but the low res and shitty quality wouldn't do the car justice imo. Instead, here's a pic of it at the owners place which was on the ad :

Will get camera fixed or use GF's when she gets home and take a pic with the roof panels off.
 
You my friend, have a beautiful car. I'm not gonna lie, i envy you lol. A car is one of the first things i'm going to start saving it up either once college is over or sometime halfway through college. Again, really nice car, treat it well.
 
Yeh those cars are great. The when the first come out they were around 60g's and were classed as luxuary car or whatever rich people would buy but they made it half the price of the other cars.. to bad its an auto :p u could work the shit out of those things and they just blow everything away but autos make things difficult :P... if i see u in it i might give u a run for ur money in my little puslar :P but it looks like fuck all but you'll be surprised.

Yea would have raped if i had a manual license but i don't so i'll stick with auto for now :(
But even for an auto the acceleration is pretty damn good, even compared to most manuals.

Not too many Z's around perth especially cherry red ones, so i'm sure you'll see me around somewhere :P
 
You have to have a license to drive a manual?

Here you just take the basic license test and you're able to drive both manual and auto.
Yeh nah it's pretty gay here if you did your drivers test in an automatic then you can only have an automatic license. Although i think if you did the test as a manual driver they let you drive automatic also. Not too sure on that though.
wow it is a ghreat car sexy XD
wht is the engine it is V?
It's a V6 twin turbo engine. No intercooler as far as i know though, may have to get one put in.

i've done over 300km's within 36 hours of getting the car lol i think i should stop driving everywhere.
