G35/350gt/skyline/nissan Emblem/wtf

I've seen G35s on the roads that have been re-badged with SKYLINE 350GT with the "berger" nissan emblem. Are these real factory models or riced out cars?

Neither. They're bebadged as what they are factory in Japan (aka V35's) Same as when 350Z's rebadge to 'fairlady' which is what they are factory in Japan (aka Z33's) It's a factory Nissan JDM thing. Not rice imo

i know that in canada it is illigal to rebadge a car with different names.....such as putting skyline on the back of a G35, for some reason cops want to be able to read the back of the car and tell what it is....friends with RSX's have been to meets that have the "ricer crowed" (all show no go) with the JDM honda integra badges put on......

i like the Debadged Clean look.

It's burger, not "berger". If you're gonna flip it, know how to spell it.

There is no actual 'Z33' emblem, like there's no V35 emblem. When it's referred as a Z33 emblem it's the 'fairladyZ' emblem and looks like this:

Goes on lower left of rear hatch.

Your "Infiniti" emblem is actually the fake one Nissan used to fool you into paying more....

Take the red pill Neo! See how far the rabbit hole goes.

^100% right, infiniti only exists in north america because Nissan originally thought Americans wouldnt pay 40k for a nissan.

That and the fact that Nissan isn't a status symbol, while they started fresh with infinity and turned it into one.
