Just traded (last Saturday) my 07 350Z in on 2009 370Z Nismo # 0067. Tried to get my age number (62) but it was not available. It is the brillant silver. Up to 300 miles of break in so far as I had to go out of town Mon-Thur on business in a rental. Hope to have pics up tonight as right now they are on my son's camera. I am looking forward to having it dyno'ed after break in.

Saw that Joe, congratulations on the new Nismo. That 67 will be your age when it's paid for. Heard it was the first in the KC area.

I am a few years younger (I'm 58). I am very interested in purchasing a 370z nismo. I test drove one last week. I was wondering about your impressions of the car since you acquired one. Do you drive it daily or do you use it on weekends or go to the track?

Have not been to the track yet (worried about oil temp problem) but have autocrossed a couple of times and 1500 miles on the street. I love it (my son posted the dyno results in another section on here if you want to check it out). Still getting up to spped with the 6-speed as my 05 and 07Zs were auto. I don't drive it every day to work - only on the good ones. I will not drive it during the winter here in Missouri as it does get cold and the tires are not recommended under 40 degrees. Still trying to decide if I will get any mods over the winter like high flow cats or JWT dual intake or even the oil cooler.

Joe, isn't there a rear cooler and oil cooler both available.

I have seen the part number for the oil cooler but until I can afford to buy and have it put on I have not contacted anyone yet. I was hoping that Nissan would decided it should have been on the NISMO and have a recall to put them on but I am not holding my breath. Have not heard of a diff cooler yet for the 370Z

Got to agree there, the Nismo should have had the coolers as part of the package.
