+1 Z is not high end... or there would be a lot less owners in here that could even afford one.. coz if it were it;d be priced more like a BMW 335cp and set you back an easy $45-$50k

I personally don't like most of the boring looks a lot of people give this car.

Seems a waste if your going to go to all that trouble of getting a body kit/spoiler etc. and then just paint it the same color and not put any stickers, etc. on it.

Flame me for being ricey, but I'm not doing a bunch of **** to my car just so most people cant tell its not stock.

P.S. Yeah, I am one of the guys that painted his stock wheels. Sorry you had to spend $2500 on your volks to get just as many comments as I do for spending $25. I think They look awesome, too.

I didn't read the last 3 pages....did anyone say the fat chick mod? You lose style pts. and at least a couple tenths w/ one of those beached on your passenger seat. Besides I hear that they crush your seat bolsters.

understand though that not everyone builds or mods their car to get comments....alot of people just do it for themselves

alot of you guys are really, really bitter souls lolol....need some xanax or something

modding your car is a matter of YOUR taste, not someone else's

Yes, I will agree than there are many ways to uglify this car.....at roughly $30k, its not the most expensive car, but it sure aint the cheapest. But at the end of the day, what might not be your cup of tea could be awesome to someone else. And it goes both ways....what you think is "awesome" on your car, could be something someone else detests.

Neons, lambo doors, stickers, colored LEDS, and overly done body work. Sadly there is a Z in my neighborhood that has all this, looks like something the space shuttle threw up

4) The "Stretched Tire" fad that seems to be making its rounds. WTF??? Why would you want a tire that's too narrow stretched out over your wheel like a insert humorous simile here? I just don't get that ****.[/QUOTE]


maybe because you have not been into RWD cars or wanna be JDM style enough..

haha... too stretched tires may look bad but..

stretching tires look good with specialy deep dish rims..

here in japan no one is hater. everybody has their own style

neon lights or whatever man..

i mean some people dont like some stuff.. like me i hate spinners on any

car.. maybe trucks or suvs.. but even whenever i see Z with spinners...

i dont like it but....hell ..just let it go....

I had to laugh when I saw this. An old guy drives a 07 PPW Convertible Z and it has an ugly black bra on it... I'm sorry those do not look good at all... He could at least get the 3M paint protector film...

Rice = Anything not in style.
At one point I'm sure that whatever that thing is (Altezza,fog lights,chrome,etc.) was the bomb ****znits at the time.
Its just that people got tired of them then started to call them "rice"
..because there is no way that the companies were making them if there were no demands on the market.
