Cobalt's gone, replaced with a...

'08 350Z Nismo

Picked it up yesterday. I'm in love. Car is so much fucking WIN I can't even explain it. What a pleasure to get into this thing after dealing with POS beaters for the last 6 months. Cost me about 25% more than the Cobalt, small price to pay to have twice the car


Handles, stops, just drives so damn nice.
Power is fucking great for a stock car, I anally molested some random Cobalt SS last night while I was driving around.

not really feeling the body kit, but I have a lot of respect for them. There is a guy with a single turbo 350 near me and that thing moves

That is one hell of a short throw you got there

Yeah, body kit is def not for everyone, but at least it's fucntional, and I like the way the car looks. There was a turbo Nismo down here that got wrecked, couple single and twin turbo Z's and G35's down here, all in the 400-500whp range.

LOVE the shifter, what a pleasure having a real shifter that is actually attached to the trans, and the feel is supreme.

This is the Nismo "body kit" for the 350Z.
