Deimos's new stablemate (OT)

So I broke down and ended up trading in Nic II on Saturday for something I've had my eye on for a while. I really wanted a BMW Z4 Coupe, but since I couldn't find one within a decent price range, I went with the next best thing. I've liked 350Z's from the first time I saw them in 2003. Compared to Nic, this thing feels beastly. And, it's a stick shift! Ever since I learned to drive stick on Mark's car, I've wanted one of my own. They're just so much more...engaging...than autos.

Anyway, here she is - as yet unnamed. Any suggestions?

I think it's a nice complement to Deimos. The colors go well. Generally I'm not a fan of white cars, but this isn't really white and it's just so classy looking. That, and it's an '08 model with a whopping 6k mi on the clock and they were willing to knock it down to $25k for me.

By the way, I bought it from Superior Nissan in Conway. I'm not yet sure if they're going to be selling Nic there or not, but if anyone's interested you may want to contact them. I had an overall good experience with them - though admittedly I much preferred dealing with Roadshow.

NICE! I like these cars. Who was your sales guy at Superior? I've met a few of those guys recently.

Jessie Bickers was my SC. He was pretty great too. Every time he'd come back with an offer from "on high" that I wouldn't like, he'd act completely supportive and go back with a counter offer. It was certainly a different experience from buying a MINI! I kind of like the thoughts of haggling...

By the way, another person who works there mentioned that they are going to sell Nic on their lot rather than sending it to a wholesaler.
