Nardo_Z

Spotted a bright orange 350Z going southbound on the M1 (approx 4pm yesterday) sounded tasty and looked VERY clean.

In black..... And if you take away the silly patterned leather the interior is way better.

It's not intended to compete with the 720, not at all it's a GT car. It does look stunning in black and I've been fortunate enough to see one in the flesh (red) and LRF4N is absolutely correct it looks so much better in person. I agree though, it's very much split opinion, some like it some don't. I'd like to drive it side-by-side the Vanquish S and see how much better it is because that is truly the perfect GT car (IMO) Vanquish S Black: https://www.motor1.com/news/250462/aston-martin-dbs-superleggera-video/

Greenlight have been very good so far (not had to claim yet) but they are v.chilled about mods. I've declared all of mine.

Welcome mate. Lovely low mileage Z! I'm a newbie too.

Got some additional shade and light pictures last night.

Thank you kindly. Yeah it's the light Nardo Grey. comme ça...

Doh totally, missed that, thought it was your signature. Cheers Payco

Cheers Payco, What date is the Gaydon / Simply Jap meet? I might be in Salisbury so could pop in to one of the two, just to say hi if nothing else.

Thanks Payco. I would like to get in on some meets. I'm based just outside Birmingham/Leamington-Spa and in Wiltshire often too. Keen to get involved.

Many thanks! Love your website BTW Cheers man! Haha, well the driver side one is aesthetic only, passenger side more functional ;-)

Many thanks! Cheers, I am feeling rather pleased about it.

Eh up Davey_83 Thank you. No straight off the bat, I used to drive Zeds quite a bit for work but all bogo so want to get used to it and see what it needs. As it is a weekend toy and not a daily I'm going to see how I really use it then tweak from there. If I do go anywhere with it I will go down the "lairy" route/something towards a track focus. Initial thoughts would be, lightweight flywheel (forgot to add above, it has a competition clutch (stage 2), for a touch more pickup on blip Id love to go nuts (as I am sure many would) and do cams throttle bodies But realistically I don't have the £££ or the time as I'll be moving abroad in the next year, so probably resign that to the pipe dream column. Biggest plan for the moment is to enjoy the thing.

Thanks Coldel, Yeah the wrap is a funny one, I've not seen a photo of it yet that shows it how it looks in real life. Thanks for the heads-up on the pad. What's generally considered the top fast-road/light track pad? Not too fussed about dust....obviously. Yup ECU was done, can't remember who by but I did look them up and they are a good reputable company. Post coilover and alloy fitment it had full 4 wheel alignment with a fast-road track setup. I've current got the dampers set dead in the middle so have tweaking room each way depending on what I feel would suit me best.

Hi all! I finally did it, well done me. After stalking the forums for, quite literally years. Last night I picked up a lovely (imo) 350z. Pleased. As. Punch.
