Gary Sword, why did you pick a Lambo? Why not Ferrari?
Ferrari overrated, you buy a Ferrari when you want to be somebody, you buy a Lamborghini when you are somebody . We owned a 355 and 328, both piles of crap, actually I was talking with an owner of a 328 on here helping him out awhile ago. I drove the new F430 at Sebring and its a great car but felt to techy and borring with the F1 trans, I'd take a Gallardo anyday over it. Last good Ferrari - F40, my grandmother could drive an Enzo it has so many gizmos lol (not saying the Enzo is a bad car by any means, incredible performance), F40 is pure and raw which is exactly what I want in a sports car. What I would have liked to see is the last gen CS offered with a manual trans only and the 430 engine, now that would have been a ripping track/street car with its light weight.

Turbos - nice job, but whats up with the black hood? I like the tinted tail lights, lot of people seem to be doing that. I saw an silver e46 M3 that had black tinted tailights and black rims, looked mean contrasting with the silver color.

No offense to anyone, but personally I hate the exhaust from the 350Z and the G35, One of my best fiends has a white G35 and even though it looks the dog's danglies, that wimpy exhaust note kills it!

MAN!!! You need to take that thing outside and get some interior, engine, and more exterior shots!

Looks like a hot car in my opinion.

CF…doh I knew that. I was thinking of a detail product…DOH! The car has no CF other than the stock CF inside the car. This car has had a ton of mod’s done to it. This car has been to the “Streets of Willow Springs” in Rosamond, CA three times (been with him twice in the passengers seat filming while he was driving/plus he had a mounted camera on the back window). It was insane and awesome. It beat all the Evo 8’s, S2000’s, and everything except for one Porsche. As far as the stock sound/tone it was great, but now after all these mod’s it is superb…not ricey either. It is deep when you get on it and awesome with the cam’s at idle.

Mod’s-

-ECU re-programmed for most HP/tuning
-Stillen true dual exhaust
-Nismo intake
-Nismo headers
-High Flow Cats (forgot the brand)
-Unorthodoxracing pulley
-Nismo cam’s
-Volk Racing TE37 custom 19’ rims (can’t remember tire size)
-Tein Flex suspension w/ EDFC (suspension height/ride control)
-Custom corner balanced for the track
-Cobra Racing custom leather seats
-Stillen front end clip/bumper
-Custom painted hood/mirrors/bumper/spoiler
-Smoked out tail lights

I think that is pretty much it as far as mod’s that I can remember. As we speak he is getting new fatter wider tires for it…and the wheels powder coated glossy black to match the black painted areas on the car. It should be done by this weekend…and I am going to put another coat of SG on it…and I will take pic’s outside for everyone. (I didn’t do the clean the engine bay because he didn’t want me too…he is getting some new mods soon he said) and for the interior he just wanted in vacuumed…so I was like ok!)

One question though...what could I do to make the white and black pop more? Add another coat of Klasse SG? And could I put P21S carnauba to top it off? I want to make it bullet proof and shine like no other...and for future vehicles since I just got four lined up since I did his last week...DOH...now to find the time from other job and college!

My dads boss (owner of Endicott NIssan) just got one of the first 2007 350Z Convertibles in stock. More Hp, bigger bump in the hood, and had my dad ordering him some new 20's for it.

IMO the convertible looks like crap! And I hope those 20's are light and not some chrome pile of blah....I mean to each there own but this is a sports car...mod it to the max and keep the rim additions as light as possible IMO!
