Talking Noob introduction....just got my GS300 :D

Whats up guys, just wanted to say hi and introduce myself here. I just sold my 350Z a few days ago and bought a 2002 GS300 on Sunday. I had my 350Z for almost 4 years and it was just time for a change. I've been going to some local meets around socal and really got into the VIP style cars lately so I thought I'd get one. I bought the car from a forum member by the way....thanks Nat!!

So here are a few shots of my old 350Z







And here are a few pictures of my new GS300. I haven't gotten a chance to go out and take some nice pictures yet since the weather has been so hot lately, but I'll try to do a proper photo shoot soon



I bought the car exactly as you see it here but without the Junction Produce grill, so I'll have to buy a grill for it soon.









I'll also have to mount that amplifier somewhere.

I was about to say you made the wrong choice by looking at your old Z until I scrolled down and saw your GS...nice!

lol thanks!! As soon as I saw it for sale, I put my 350Z up for sale. Luckily it sold in just a few days and I had the money to buy the GS. I'll have to look into some local meets here. I'd love to check out some other clean cars. I'm still going to my monthly 350Z meets though

Thanks Kaydee! I do miss my Z, but the GS definitely makes up for it.

Hey, we all have to start somewhere. I remember driving my stock Z around and wishing I had some mods after going to some meets.
