rabbitstew Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Welcome to the forum. Lots of googling and reading will tell you what you should look out for and all you need to know about the 350z. Going from a 1.2 corsa to a 350z! Hope you have checked out the insurance!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricey Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Without sounding like a right boring git - watch your right foot if your jumping up 200 odd bph and swapping front to rear drive.......we don't want to be picking you out of a hedge!

I agree! Its some difference in power. Dont just get in it and put your foot down. Enjoy the car.... But sensibly till you get used to it, lol. I still get the occasional shock from mine.

Lloydacus Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hi there mate I'm 21 as well, went from a Saxo vtr to the zed big change in power just take it easy for the first couple of months till you get used to it. And don't buy the first one you see, they have a habit of making you see things through Rose tinted spectacles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
