I picked up a performance in the Red/Black combo with a manual and 8 miles on the odo. The car is just what I needed/wanted. My other car is a red Taco that I call Ruby. Calling this fast beast “The Red Zed”.

Post new year, did a couple days to Myrtle Beach and had a fun drive there and back. Tried it keep it below 4k rpms for the break in. But you know, “Just this once”…. Amazingly quiet and smooth above 80 on the highway. So much fun at a green light.

Funny, the dealer didn’t put on the front under lip spoiler, so I have to get a rivet gun and put that on. I plan to replace the plastic oil pan with and aluminum one, and may as well replace the plastic shroud with an aluminum one as well. STILLEN sway bars should be an easy install too.
Congrats! And awesome color choice, I also scored on the red/black interior. Stillen swaybars are on the stiffest setting, the Z definitely need it. I suggest don’t bother w the front under lip, it’s low enough as it is, you might damage the bumper along w it when scraped. Also forget about the air deflectors, useless for any street driving.

I will be installing the Z1 catch can (Z will be tracked this year) and a CZP oil pan and maybe under shroud.

Just bought this 26 Heritage MT for 50k OTD (I had about an even trade, so no real taxes). This thing is so freaking fun to drive. Drove it from the dealership directly to get a full front PPF.

Howdy from the Sun Coast. I received my 2026 Z Sport a month ago and am still in the euphoria stage of ownership (maybe it never leaves?). I smile every time I go into the garage, and my wife says that I will spontaneously grin while driving the Z. Anyway, the pix are from when I picked the Z up from the tinters. Shout out to Justin at Precision Tint & Design in Port Charlotte, FL. He did an amazing job. And I'm picky. Next up is PPF.

I have been a Volkswagen enthusiast for years. My first car was a fully restored (that I did with an Uncle that had owned a VW dealership) '69 Beetle. I have had several GTIs over the years. I was all set to get a Golf R, and then I saw a Z in Ikazuchi Yellow in a Publix parking lot. That's when things started to change for me. After research, I concluded that I wanted a Z. And that was that. Very pleased with the Z.

Fond of Volkswagens, too, back then had an 84 Rabbit GTi then 88 Jetta GLi, great handling cars, stable 3 wheel cornering! But always had a heart for 240Zs since high school, 5 owned since then, so the new Z was a given, great styling when it was revealed plus the true Nissan heritage!

New to the forum. Bought my 25 Z sport labor day last year. Just hit 3 k miles. Have added tint and splash guards. Bought some other items used I have some questions about I'll address in the appropriate section.
