350z's In Sl?

SeanD · June 19, 2010

Hello

How many Nissan 350z's are there in SL? Over the years, I've seen a white one, orange one, black one, and dark blue one. No idea who the current owners are. I believe the black one used to be owned by Romany but has now been sold, as I saw it recently on FB with registered plates and someone else that seemed to own it. Must've cost a pretty penny. I'm just curious as to what is up with these cars nowadays, as I no longer hear/see anything about them. Are the rest still in Sri Lanka?

LOL maybe the rest might be buried at Kanattha. Dude, they might be with their respective owners

I gues one or 2 were up for sale sometime back...

Orange - Originally imported by Nihal Hoole & has since changed a hands a number of times. Last known ownder was a Timber mill operator in Katubedda. This car has a bolt on Supercharger & intercooler.

Black - as rightly mentioned, formerly Romani's. since sold on & has a chipped ECU & Rays alloys. Asking was in the high 9 million range years ago

White - Owned by the Sharma's who used to run Ceylon Continental

Blue - Used for a period by the Rockland Co owners, but now supposedly owned by someone at A*W (one of the De Zoysa's possibly? ) Automatic transmission & said to have changed hands for cheap - unverified story though.

Silver convertible - This is currently at no 33. - Darin should be able to provide more information.

Didn't we have a thread on this already? Wasn't there a white convertible too?

hey Peri I recall you posting a pic of a orange convertible 350z sometime back.

I see the Orange 350z time to time (even a month or 2 back) in Galle road, near Katubadda (its too is open top right?)

I once saw a blue one, in Katubedda, uni road. It was parked with a New Cefiro in almost same blue color. Like father and son

I dunno about that car. Nihal Hooles old car is a coupe, and last I saw had silver stripes on the hood.

devinda machang the orange car was also imported by us and not nihal hoole.

the 1st import was the blue coupe which has now changed hands

we also imported an orange drop top for Lalin Jinasena owner of casa colombo.

If this is true, and with a price tag of somewhere around $80k USD for the 2009 model (before tax) if I remember right, I'm very very curious to see who would be bringing one down here.
