Well guys, I know I havent posted much here, but I have been browsing and reading for about two years now. I was able to sway my parents into buying a 2005 Rx-8 last August, but when the time came for me to get my new car, I decided upon something else. Being single with just a girlfriend, and no signs of marriage and a family for a few years down the road, I could easily live with a 2 seater. And besides, if I ever wanted to drive the Rx-8, I can always swap with my parents for a week or so. So anyways, I know some of you were saying how bland the styling is and how heavy the car is, but I think it looks very nice and it performs pretty darn good too. I really like the little changes they made for the 06 model. The only downside is, I have to wait a few months (1-3) for the car to get here. I decided on getting a 2006 Daytona Blue Enthusiest. I LOVE this color!! Once it comes in, I'll be sure to get some pics of it along side of my parents Winning Blue Rx-8. Here are some pics I took of the color in a different trim (base): (sorry for the blurry images, it was COLD that night)

 

I don't see any pics.

 

you suck at posting pics

 

You guys must be blind. Thats great pic of his car in a typical PA snow storm.

 

Nay, you suck at the internet!

 

That color looks just like little red x's. LOL...j/k/ I cant see the pics buddy. Maybe repost them somehow?

 

which one? Some are easier than others.

 

 

I'll attach a few of the photos. They're all hard to see...

 

The one Al Gore invented.

 

silly n00bs, you can't direct link webshot pics

 

That's some audacity camaro. You're clearly parked in a NO PARKING zone. Had the car for 10 mins and he's already acting like a jackass with it. hahaha, j/k. Looks good, I like that blue.

 

I think you're searching for the term, 'hotlinking'. But it depends on where it's being hosted.

Just be glad they're not sending goatse photos instead..

 

Typical Z owner...

 

I doubt it's his car. Since his is arriving in a few months...

 

Fixed. And yes, is not MY car, but the same one that will be ariving shortly. This was the first time that I was able to find a dealer who had that color on their lot and I needed to get some pics of it and to see it in person before ordering.

 

So you just posted a bunch of pics of some car sitting at a dealer?!

 

You could say that. I just wanted to show you guys what the car that I just bought looks like.

 

I really wished Nissan would've painted or redesigned those door handles.

 

Wow, I haven't seen a blue Z for hours!

 

They are actually kind of rare around here. Believe it or not, but I just saw the first blue Z coupe in Pittsburgh the other day. I have only seen 1 blue convertible so far. And the same with the Rx-8's. I have only seen 1 other blue one besides my parents. There arent too many cars like this around here (Z's and 8's). I maybe see one or two a month if I'm lucky.

 

you're in pittsburgh that's why, out on the coasts these cars are everywhere

 

Maybe not in PA, but their a dime a dozen in Florida. I see at least 10 on my daily commute to work and back.

 

It's a nice car, and a nice color.

Neither Zs not 8s are at all common in Michigan. Since getting my 8 in late September 05, I've seen maybe two or three 8s, and maybe 5 or 6 Zs.

I am of the understanding that Nissan seriously upgraded the fit/finish and material texture quality on the Z interior lately.

I really like the front end.

 

congrats dude, daytona blue is my favorite color for the Z also. im glad you got an 06 with the rev-up engine (you did get the rev-up engine thats only on 6mt models right? not an automatic). now make sure you drop 400 bucks for Motordyne's MREV mod. it will give you +20-25whp and +30-35wtq. Then youre pretty much on even ground with mustangs GTs and M3s unfortuantely thats about the only cheap mod for our engine that gets good power. if you want it any faster youd have to drop rediculous amount of money
