They also have a 04 with 16K an under warantee for $22.900 Daytona Blue with $7000 worth of mods on it.
The '04 has a nice spoiler/body kit on it too. I think it's the V2.

Zesus, now, after you read through all of these replies, you can see why so many of them look the same, as VenomZ said, you have to sit at the loser table. There are original kits out there, people are just afraid to go after them because of what "everyone" esle will think. Personally, it's my car, it's going to look how I want it to look and could give 2 ****s about what "everyone" else thinks about it, whether it's cool or not!
Jones21, that blue car above is the SAME car, the kit was molded and the car was resprayed...

I have said on here before, we have another Z (PPW) that is much tamer but it is a DD. Mine is trailer only/show car. Btw, I changed the color of the car. Now I love it even more.

Wheels are also the same, the best wheels are going to be sported a lot because they are, the best in looks, weight, and safety.
A lot of people try to sway from everyone else when I look at it. Nobody wants their car to look like everyone elses.

Number one that makes a car is the owner imo. Of course you are going to see many Z's running the same body kit, wheels, etc. Thats going to be the same with any car. Its the little things that make the car unique and different.

Just putting it out there, please chime in.

Very few kits look clean, most of them look like they were taken from the Fast & Furious Movies... If that's what your into that's cool, but I think most people are more into the sporty clean look on this forum...
Probably the most used part on this forum is the Nismo Bumper...

I agree alot of the kits i see don't flow with the car well. I think the Z is real sleak and smooth flowing but it seems like alot of the kits clash with the z because they have too many jagged edges,too much going on,Too many weird holes and gaps that makes it look like its some kind of crazy boat or weird plane. Personally i like the stock bumpers and the way it looks like that. Throw some wheels on it and some painted headlights, and i am good. Thats what i like and i think it looks better than all the crazy bumpers and ridic. wings. Thats me though, im also the same person who watched 10 mins of fast and furious and wanted to throw up and devoted myself to never be like those lame-o douche bags with their ****ty cars.
Maybe also because i came from the camaro world and most of those guys didn't throw body kits and euro lights and stuff on our cars.
Its all about what you like. I think some people have this mindset that if it isn't outrageous and loud and crazy they don't want it because they want people to stare at their car. Thats what i like about this forum because most everyone on here has good taste, i may not agree with what some think looks good but for the most part i see some good looking cars.

Well said, many Z's try way to hard and end up looking really rice. I prefer simple and clean, nice drop, rims and a front lip. That's it for me and I get tons of compliments on how nice the car looks. There's way to many crazy body kits out there. Its often to see Zs on the road but not often you see a nice one!

if you're on these boards then you know that certain products are better. therefore, those products are swayed towards. why would i get a FI that multiple people have had problems with? why would i get a body kit if i know it fits like ****? how many people do you think own Z's? how many different body kits or rims do you think are out there?
