Ponsonby Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Just bought myself a 350Z as one of my many mid-life crisis cars (an excuse that seems to work with the other half). The 350Z was not the crisis - the decision to buy a Temper Orange one was. But I have to say that every day it grows on me and I love the car. Pics of my lovely girl will follow (car not the wife) when I get chance to clean her. 2009, Temper Orange, Gunmetal Rays, NISMO rear spoiler, and countless other goodies I will list when I have time to properly poke around. And the advantage of buying such a beast at 50 years old - dirt cheap insurance - around £270 with only one year no claims (rest of claims on my other vehicle). There are some advantages to being an old git! Quote
rabbitstew Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Awesome colour and 2009 it must be one of the last 350z`s registered!! Welcome! Quote

gareth29 Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Welcome - when i was 50 i promised myself a porsche - but the budget would only stretch to a cheap 924/944, then i remembered the 350z, so i went for performance instead of badge! Quote
Fluke Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 I'm another old 'un at 48, but my midlife crisis car was a supercharged MX5. My sunset orange 350z is me trying to be sensible. Quote
Brummiestormer Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 Excellent choice of colour I actually gave my wife the choice of colour---and she obviously has good taste;well she did marry me after all Quote
