Congrats Cheston!!
Get used to turning heads (for the right reasons, not the salad bar...low blow, but I had too!) -- it happens ALL the time (for now at least).
I ordered mine (Silverstone Enthusiast 6spd) in Januaary 17th and picked it up on Sept. 17th! EXACTLY 9 Months!
It's SUCH a blast to drive. So much fun. You'll get over the 6th gear thing quickly. Get used to turning TCS off
BTW, when your ready to get rid of the Rays wheels and upgrade, give me a holler -- I'd love to pick up a nice set of used ones.
Enjoy!!

Here's mine -- (sorry for the large pic...all I have)
My 350Z

ummmm..... Have you ever seen a Turbo Type-R Teg??? what is it... 14:1 compression and they make some of the fastest turbo Hondas on the street??? Hmmm, yeah, compression is such a problem to overcome.

Ryan.... that's one sweet Z you've got yourself. Cheston's nice, but I like the silverstone color better.

I love silver cars, but the blue is AMAZING (I like the red too)...but those bright colors may not be the best over time.
So I stuck with a sure winner.

Supra was also strutless. It's annoying, like a beautiful woman with sm*** ****!

I'll race you for the Maxima, Cheston... on BMX bikes that is.. 
For some reason, i can't get over that Majestic blue.. wonder what the Z would look like with a darker shade of blue like Majestic. I reall dig the super black though.
Cheston, i want your income! lol

Why??
Sure, the Neon SRT-4 is impressive in the speed catagory. But it's a NEON. The Z is SOOOO much more than just a time slip!!!
The Neon is a NEON. It is sub-par on quality.
The only thing that the SRT-4 and the Z have in common are the time slips. I cannot imagine (since I haven't actually driven an SRT-4, only a plain Neon) that the driving experience is anywhere close to similar.
1. Styling
2. Quality
3. RWD
4. Gearbox
5. Suspension/Handling/Ride
6. "image"
BTW - Neon's fall apart anyway -- what is a boosted Neon going to do!!??
"It's a Z" -- that sounds a little different than "It's a Neon". And it means a WHOLE LOT more.
It's a Z...and that is a Neon. 'nuff said
