Many of the pics in the downshift calendar of of my350z.com people...

I know I'm in there as well as at least 5-6 others... maybe even all 12?

 

i for one think the calendar sucked, really bad, the pics that they chose for the calendar sucked, i made one of the months and wasnt happy with the pic they chose for the full month. I am a photographer in the panhandle of florida. In the next few weeks I am holding a photoshoot for anyone in my area with a 350z that would like to be in it. Im not looking to take anything away from the calendar that downshift put out but everyone on here has had trouble getting a responce from the calendar. I had no idea that it was even out until one of my friends called me and asked if my car was in a calendar. Anyway. of couse my calendar wont be out until the 2007 year but believe me it will be far better organized than what we have now.

 

I am in the fwb area as well! Glad to see another member from the area.

 

My car is February. Hopefully the calender will arrive soon. I saw a post from Rob of Downshift Mag on another Z forum and he said they should be shipping very soon. They ended up going with another printer and he says that they came out better.

 

nice, there is about 10 of us that hang out. 3 of us F/I. Check out www.panhandlez.com . im having a superbowl party at my house in navarre. more info in the forum section of panhandlez.com.

 

Well, I got 2 emails from Downshift. The first claims I didn't pay, so I forwarded them the Paypal confirmation.

The second one read as follows:

 

So, I guess that is good news and we should see them by the end of next week...

 

Saw the post for this calendar and was not impressed. The cost is too high for what you're getting.

We've talked about doing a ZDayZ calendars (exact format is not set, but likely to only be cars that appear at ZDayZ this year and possibly former Best In Show Winners) for 2007. I've priced out doing these things and can easily do a larger format calendar on higher quality paper for the same price these guys are charging. I can't imagine paying $20 for a 8.5" x 11" format calendar (plus shipping on top of that). That's ridiculous!

 

Too further drive this point... I just did some calculations on what this would cost me to produce (assuming I did not have to pay for the pictures). At a price point of $20 (before shipping), I'd be making over a 200% profit.

 

Nismo calendar is nice if your into the JGTC cars

 

Can anyone post a month of the calendar to see how it stacks up?

 

That's pretty nice! Where can you get those? I'd love to get a stack of them to hand out at ZDayZ.

 

here you go, our pics made it but i was not impressed at all.

Guess we'll see when we get it...

I don't think it's fair, however, to compare a Downshift Online Calendar to a Nismo one... Nismo has a little more working capital if you know what I mean.

I plan to buy the Nismo as well.

 

same thing here

 

Cool, I'll check that site out. I live in navarre as well.

 

Japan, I'll see if I can get you some for you for the event.
FYI That calendar is poster size Nismo did a Nice Job with it.

 

For the original Calander, it looks pretty nice. I'd pay $20 shipped for that.

But that Nismo calendar looks sexy. Where can I get one?

 

Haha. I got the same email about not paying, then later I received an email saying I had paid afterall.

 

Cybercath, I'm a recent member of ECZA; do you have a listing of members in the state of Maryland? Also, is there a site that sells 'really cool' merchandise (i.e. t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.) for the 350z? I like the graphics on the z below your name.. I've seen that drawing on a t-shirt somewhere, but it was so long ago, I don't recall exactly where/any suggestions?
