Default Put down a 350z

i was goin through campus, and this red 350 gets on my ***, he's on eof my buddies neighbors, so i figrd he wanted to run, i started goin towards his apt complex waiting on an open stretch, and finally it opened up, he got beside me and we went from a 50 roll with me letting him get the jump, by 70 i was already caught up and pulling ahead, 3rd it was all over, slowed back down waved to him, he gives me thumbs up, i pulled a u turn and went on my way, good run

When they first came out I tried to get one to run me but they never would so I went to the dealership so I could test drive one and see for myself, the guy said that they dont let you test drive them because they are "Limited Edition" cars and he said you have to do all the paperwork before you can even drive one...

I personally like those 350's. A local guy has a supercharger and headers I believe. Runs mid 12's, not too shabby.

Good kill Ben! You need like a rebel flag sticker on your car or sumthin to help the orange stand out more. Stickers also help ricers feel more comfortable to race you. Just don't put on a NOS one, cause then they'll know you're for real.
