Pics of the girlfriends graduation present

My girlfriend recently took delivery of her 2008 350Z. Her dad leased it for her as a surprise. She was number 11 in her class of over 300 people. She has had high performance driving classes already.

The car has grass all over it because the neighbor was mowing his yard at the time.













Ill try to take some of the Z and the Vette together tomorrow if it is not raining.

Wow! Lucky girl. But then again you've got the Z06

I like the bow, I've always wanted to surprise my wife with a car with a bow on it, but she always finds out first. Maybe someday I'll be able to surpirse my daughter like that. Cool parents are awesome.

No, I just thought that it was kinda funny. The disclamer at the bottom is hillarious. I think that it should have came with a complimentary set of golf bags. I would use them.

Looks like time to bring out the clay bar!

Lucky girl, in 77 I got a 63 Plymouth Fury III station wagon with pealing paint as my grad present...was very happy to have that.

Its an auto, but it has the sport mode which is pretty much a manual without a clutch. Ever since she got the car she has been talking about learning to drive a manual. I believe one day next week we are going to find an empty parking lot with the Vette for her to learn.

You're a very brave man. I can't say I have ever let a learner drive either of my cars

I trust her, and it will be in a very open/ empty parking lot. If she wears the clutch out, it is under warranty for five years, and my dealer is very skilled.
