BONE STOCK Nissan 350z Takes on WET Backroads (POV Drive)

[@jesusherrera4595]

it's perfect drive the Z in the rain. I wanna live that experience full adrenaline

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

It was such a rush going almost 100mph on the wet backroads😅‼️ a little sketchy tho

[@ohgryph]

I miss my Z sometimes but then again I don’t miss the interior and how small the cabin felt inside, loved the drivetrain and powerband of the car tho, always felt so good and fun super reliable and healthy cars if maintenance properly ofc.

[@stickboyjones]

Those are some of the widest and straightest back roads I've seen 😂😂 cool vid tho none the less as long as you enjoy the drive🤗

[@matthewwood8379]

Wow crazyyyy video man you really pushed the limitsss ahhhhhh

[@victorsandoval4792]

2:13 I saw a Pontiac GTO on my drive home from work today. It sounded amazing, it was ripping up the 210 going west in California near Highland.

[@z33hayden23]

Man, the way you baby your Z makes me wanna stop pushing mine so hard

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

I’m in dire need of a clutch replacement so I’m babying it for now haha! As soon as I go Stage 2 clutch I’m banging gears for sure 😂

[@zdygdale9956]

another great pov vid man I got 6 days left until I fly home for the holidays cant wait!! Also told ya a muffler delete would make it sound better, I took mine off and had a shop make me a dual exit like the stock one

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

You were right about the muffler delete! I just got test pipes in‼️‼️‼️ they’ll be going on the car very soon

[@zdygdale9956]

@@Louie_Rodriguez hell yeah same here got so much stuff that I’ve bought since I’ve been gone gonna try to vlog it and see how that goes and try and do a couple pov vids while I’m home

[@Rjfromoutsouth.04]

I’m learning how to drive manual and it’s definitely a different experience 😂 it’s been fun though and watching you is giving me some pointers dope vid🤟🏽

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

Thanks man I’m happy my videos are helping! Manual is so fun, reminds me of the first time I learned. Enjoy homie 🔥

[@tra3bo]

I found a 2006 350z with 30k miles all stock 1 owner for 19k

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

Worth every penny in my opinion but try and talk them down maybe 17k cash

[@redline350zHR]

@@Louie_Rodriguezi just bought a low mile one owner 2008 350z 6mt for $19k! I fuckin love this thing it is absolutely mint

[@newfoundcars]

⁠@@redline350zHRHas the car market gone down? I found one for $6k manual, 90k miles on FB marketplace. There’s a lot of them around that price in my area. Thinking about getting on for a first car.

[@Zero-jr7ke]

I saw some online for under $15k with 60,000 miles

[@12ichie]

OMG YOUR POV VIEW IS SO PERFECT

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

Thank you man getting the right angel takes a couple trys haha 😆 appreciate it 🙏🏻

[@DopeNinjaGaming_]

@Louie Z. You should do more videos like this one!!! Though one thing I and everyone else would enjoy is if you add a foot cam while you are driving, so that we can see your foot work while doing some spirited drives!!!

[@Jumpers555]

Keep up the good work iv been a subscriber since you started youtubing so keep up the good work 😜

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

🙏🏻thanks for being a day 1

[@willcollins3045]

My 350 has an automatic trans. I would like to see you go though the gears more.

[@Aimtrainer1]

We the next ones up on the YT shoo ong

[@broedersboys6769]

keep going daddy louie

[@nugget6644]

No idea why, but those cars have that "customizable energy" in them. Try to put different interior lights in an Audi for example. Like, wtf, right? Try to put a rear wing on a Mercedes. You need to find a really suitable spoiler and often it won't fit well, while Nissan Z-Series are so customizable...

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

I totally agree! I love The Z series because every car is unique and you can go so many routes in terms of the build to make it your own.

[@nugget6644]

@@Louie_Rodriguez exactly. For the amount of Z you can drive an Audi with a Lambo V10.... but it's going to be boring as fuck. Have you ever tried customizing an Audi or going drifting with it? It's LAME !!!!! While the Z just pushes you to do it. Like having two little devils on your shoulders instead of a devil and an angel.

[@garynazario1441]

Greetings fellow Z owner from Puerto Rico ✌🏻

[@keoni6738]

I practiced manual on my dads 2014 Subaru wrx sti, and I haven’t been driving as of lately but I’m buying my brothers 108k mile 2003 350z. Getting it shipped from WA state to FL and I’m hella nervous to drive it haha! I’m still a beginner so let’s hope everything goes in my favor and I don’t mess anything up lol. I know for sure ima baby the car

[@anwarf1859]

howd it go? easy to drive? good car?

[@Duohzy]

mann i just bought a z from a friend for $4.7k with a full tomei exhaust tune with flames and $1k rims with 154k miles but only problems were left headlight doesn’t work and check engine light on for a speed sensor but currently fixing those problems right now, wish i knew how to drive manual so i can use it to its full potential :/

[@brodymurphy8546]

I really want to get a 350z in the next few months

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

I would wait till next year maybe the market goes back to nomal and you can buy a z for 3-5k instead of 6-15k now 🙏🏻 good luck with your search Brody

[@nezzy3792]

Bro i loved when you were like wooooaaaahhh Lmaoooo makes me miss my z cuz I would feel the same when I would build up rpm’s 😮‍💨😂😂

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

Awesome that my vids gave you that nostalgic feeling man 🙏🏻 thank you

[@konjaaaaa]

Z gang

[@calvinfall5631]

when you are high in the rpms, does your shifter vibrate a lot? Im new to my z and am finally starting to push it a little and mine vibrates a lot above 5k ish. It kinda freaks me out and makes me not want to push the car. (PS im also new to manual so this could be an entirely normal thing for a manual transmission).

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

The cd01/cd09 is a really clunky transmission and it shakes a bit and vibrates so I’m sure what you’re experiencing is perfectly normal !!

[@calvinfall5631]

@@Louie_Rodriguez awesome thank you so much! It doesn’t seem like it vibrates an extreme amount, but it was enough to make my heart skip a beat when I shifted during a pull for the first time 😂

[@isaiahmascarenas1209]

yeah pretty normal. my first time launching mine i did like 4k and i thought the transmission was gonna leave the car lmao😂

[@dlroye]

Your not going to Blow the DE / I rev mine up to 8000 often keep your oil clean brah 👍

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

Jeez you love to live on the edge 😂👍🏻🔥

Yours will last forever I’m sure haha

[@Kassen_Lopez]

That window went down fast

[@FoxMan72]

How does it feel driving with tinted front windows, can you see at night? I have tinted back 3 windows and I think it looks really cool if you have tinted front windows, but i really want to know how it feels

[@caseylikes4runners]

Its like the first time u ever drove.

[@Louie_Rodriguez]

Huh?

[@IsahDaPlya]

I might get a Z today after looking for so long is it hard to drive manual?
