Boney's New Car

TAZTG · 27th Mar 2009, 06:08 AM

Hey little Bro. Give us an update on this 350Z you will be aquiring. I noticed 2 white ones in our parking garage at work and they look Sweet.

Bonecrusher · 27th Mar 2009, 08:55 PM

How the hell does someone else make a new car thread for you haha. Jeez dave I feel like you're rushing me! I'm going to take one for a test drive tomorrow. They're asking price is $1000 over kelley blue book, and they say no haggle pricing... well, Boneys gonna haggle

.

Anyway, I'll definately let you know how it goes. Either with a picture of it in my driveway or by a rant about stupid ass car salesman.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!! Nice CAR!!

Shattered_Steel · 28th Mar 2009, 06:13 PM

Now see, two people in the car, and neither one is you. That ain't right, is it?

So you were able to talk them down a bit?

TAZTG · 28th Mar 2009, 06:20 PM

Very nice Young Man.
Hopefully, GEICO saves you some money.
When you going to get Lights for Underneath and some Spinners??

Thats because I was already in it. It was like a miniature party over here when we brought it home. And yes, I talked them down enough to where the sale price + tax + tags came out to just under their original asking price. I was happy enough with that.

Geico is saving me quite a bit of money. I'm calling my old insurance company on Monday to say PEACE OUT. No underglow or spinners in the plans

I'm going to save some money first... then the plan is to get a spoiler... and then a new set of shoes (19" Volk GT-S... 10.5" wide in the rear omggg), and upgrade the sound system.

But first and foremost I'm ordering an expensive car cover.

Nice ride BC

Bonecrusher · 28th Mar 2009, 07:50 PM

Ty ty devypoo you're coming down in July to see it RIGHT?

Shattered_Steel · 28th Mar 2009, 08:40 PM

So what did you do with your Probe, trade it in?

And I hope you go with something "practical" on the spoiler. Nothing ruins the look of a car so much as when peeps put some kind of goofy TV-antenna-looking thing on the back of their car. I've seen some stuff so wild, you'd think they installed a heat sink on their vehicle it had so many fins.

PS - BC, could you check to see if your stock wheels would fit on a 05 Altima 2.5 S? If you don't want to keep them as backups, I might take the original rims off your hands (tires, too, if they're in good shape). Offset HPO Lugs: 5 x 114.3

Dude, you can't have my wheels

If I were to get a spoiler it'll probably be the Stillen Version 1. I thought about going veilside... but it costs like $650

I still have the probe as the daily beater (like its been for the past 5 years). This car is the weekend & nice weather baby.

Meaning I can't have them for free, or you aren't selling them? I didn't plan on you giving them away.

Bonecrusher · 29th Mar 2009, 08:51 AM

They're not for sale

Shattered_Steel · 29th Mar 2009, 12:47 PM

That's ok, dude, just checking.

You know what would save you a lot on car insurance? Selling the beater! I remember looking into insuring two cars--one of which would be a weekend vehicle--when I was already 25-years-old. They wanted waaaayyyy too much!

So, I can understand why you would want to upgrade it, but doesn't the Z already come with a pretty good sound system?

The sound system in this Z isn't the Bose Premium system... so its just average. It'll be one of the upgrades I do eventually after I save up some more money.

Having the two cars insured with them really isn't that bad.

Broken down the Probe's premium is $457.30 and the Z is $668.80. I get a $146 discount for insuring two cars with them, $45 off because both vehicles have passive restraints, $32 off for the new car discount among a few other smaller things, I get $250 in discounts.

SO, considering I'm going to do everything I possibly can to keep this Z absolutely gorgeous, the probe is still going to be driven much more than the Z, so its worth it to me. I never knew what an almost new high performance car was like... and now I do, and I love love love it

I'm going to have to take more pictures so I can put up a website for it

I'll post a clip as soon as comcast fixes their ****.

Bonecrusher · 1st Apr 2009, 05:25 PM

Heres the clipppp

This was right after we brought it home, dad is driving cuz I can't yet, and Todd is in the passenger seat, I'm taking the video. Stock exhaust

TAZTG · 3rd Apr 2009, 11:35 AM

Sounds Good! Especially taking off from stop sign and considering the distance. Now explain why your Dad was driving again and not taking the video? LOL

Don't worry you will be a pro in know time..

Bonecrusher · 3rd Apr 2009, 09:53 PM

I'm getting better. I drove it to Todd's house on Thursday... and took my sister out for a ride later on that night. It sucks the weatehr hasn't been working out... I only got to take it to work once this week.

My next project is coming up with a web design and getting some good pictures of the thing so I can put up a website like I did for the probe.

I posted this picture on facebook and I know Morty saw it... but I'll post it here, gives you a better shot of the whole car
