That's a fact. The 300 horsepower 2006 goes so fast that it pulverizes rocks into dust!

I have a brand new '06 and I have small chips from rocks. I don't know how it stacks up to the previous years, but they are there reguardless. With a car this low to the ground I don't see how Nissan could do much to prevent them completely.

Yes the '06 front fender is made out of green kryptonite and the taillights add 30whp.
