Default One downside to the Z being so affordable

..is that a lot of uneducated, ignorant riff raff will able to buy them. Case in point, the guy that started the thread about hispanics (if in fact he owns one or plans to). You don't see this as often with more expensive cars. It'll be an embarrassment to be driving the same car as them.

Yes and and no, there are people like that driving all kinds of cars from cheap to expensive. What worries me is the ones that will spend money on it because they will have extra now and make it look like a reject from Fast and the Furious, that is the one thing that is worrying me and you will start seeing the Z in the same light as the eclipses and such. But at the same time the car is not that cheap so although I think you will see a few like that it will be in the minority, I hope the majority has taste.

No, but people without wisdom rarely have significant disposable income.

I could find a picture of a riced out ferrari if I wanted.

all cars have their bastard brethren. the Z might have a few, but due to the small number of base models ordered, I dont think it will be too bad. but they will happen. toss a big *** wing on, spray paint the hood for "carbon fiber" ect. Im sure theres some room for underbody neons. but atleast theres no washer nozzles, so those will have to be custom rice.
