I'm bone stock as I don't consider a shorty antenae and tires anything. I have no plans to mod because:
1. I don't race except on the backroad twisties when no one I can see is around. IE I race against my own times.
2. I keep cars forever and dependability is paramount.
3. I'd rather put extra money in new toys, diversify.
4. I don't want to attract any more attention from the cops.
5. I enjoy seeing my friend with a Z dump money into his car and not get a noticable performance increase on the type of roads I drive fast on. Too much depends on the driver.
6. I love my stock '06 wheels. Going wider is the only thing I'd ever consider.
7. There are few Zs where I live, so I'm already unique.
8. My curiosity of what modding will do is appeased by all the great cars and experiences of others on this site who put so much care, time, and money into their Zs. Thank you all! I enjoy your cars greatly.

I got an 06 grand touring last week so I'm happy with the rims and brembos. The only things I really plan on changing is the exhaust, intake, window tint and shorty antenna. Once I'm done with school and making more money thats when I plan on buying bigger toys.

**I got the dealership to throw in a Nismo titanium shift **** with the deal. Other than that stock**

This poll needs more options. Like, "I'm slightly modded" and "I'm stock because I'm broke". My mods so far:
S2k antenna, clear front reflectors, nismo shift ****, pop-charger.
I voted "I'm not stock"
If I had more money, I'd do a shiz load of stuff.

For now, I'm stock. I'm hoping to do some suspension stuff in the near future though...
I mean stock stock, bone stock.

Absolutely zero mods, and zero plans ever to get any.

Good vote, you're not stock.

P.S. It's 'poll' not pole

I'm surprised to see 12 that are! (currently 12 people have voted bone stock with no plans to mod)

Not BONE stock...just a popcharger now after 4 years(even got that off the classifieds brand new for $80)


reason? im poor. lots of other things i need to spend money on that doesnt include $800 for an exhaust that aint gonna do a whole lot. I personally would rather buy a few drinks for good friends, when im out(as they are probably poorer than me)

Don't get me wrong if i had the $$ i would, but the car is plenty for me on the street right now.
