I am New and Want to introduce myself

I just bought my first Z on ebay the other day.(I buy and sell many cars on ebay, but will probably keep this purchase). Its a White 5 speed 94 Coupe. Just the 2 seater. Leather, all the options (n/a of course), and $2500 sound system. 123,000 miles. Picked it up for $6000. I am very excited to get the car and look forward to being part of this board. I would love to hear any comments or suggestions you may have for me as far as services I should do with the car, or any performance parts you would suggest to get or stay away from. I have been doing alot of reading prior to buying the car. I have also been trolling this board for a while, and you guys seem awesome. If there are any Utah members I would love to get together. Anyway, I am glad to be part of this group.

Well, the car is being shipped to me, so I havent seen it in person. According to an answer to an email I sent to the seller, it has a full alpine audio system with 2 subs and amps, along with speakers and a cd player. It says custom, so I dont know if it means boxes, location of subs or what. Here is the Item #. Let me know what you think.

Item number: 2486247502

Congratulations! Not many people get to buy a Z and have a kid in the same week. Most of the time it winds up where you have the kid and sell the Z.

Welcome.

I just pulled up the auction site. At 123,000 miles, may be a good time for the 60k service. I didn't see anything about the service records on the car.

So I went and picked up the car, and it is sweet. Brand new black leather seats, brand new Kumho Tires, brand new windsheild. The custom Stereo setup is Awesome. I will take some pics, but I dont know how to host them, so if someone wants to, I will email the pics for them to host. Other than an alignment and a preventative tuneup, its is excellent.

And Wrecker bought a WRX, so he's probably stuck in a ditch after a poor attempt at rally racing. His new name will be Import Wrecker.

I'm still here. Hey "new guy" , nice Z. And I'm getting a new Z, but not for at least another 2 years I'm sure... . oh well--it'll be turbo when I do. And you sent me emails, b300z?? When? to what address? I haven't gotten em I don't think. Just b/c I don't have a Z at the moment, there's no way that I'm leaving the board! haha.
