Ricer? The sound system in the back is not my style, I don't particularly like subwoofer systems, but I like the car! What's ricer about it!?

We the jury have reached a verdict for one count of ricing out an automobile: Not guilty.

The only thing I'm not a fan of is 300 pounds of audio equipment in a sports car but the vehicle itself is very nicely done.

My thoughts exactly, i never have been big on the whole show car game.

I kinda like the Guage cluster that he made though, looks kinda cool

It was built as a showcar. I bought it as a showcar. That was kind of my purpose with the car. On the other hand, it also has about 100 whp more than a stock 350z from the supercharger, upgraded brakes, coilovers and other perfomance enhancements too, so it's not all for show

Thanks for commenting!

Honestly I think the car looks pretty good, it isn't overly done no crazy body kit everything is balanced. For a show car it isn't half bad +1 on how everything looks quality and is clean.

Everything looks well put together and who ever did all the work looked like they spent a good quality of time on it. The huge sub woofers I'm not sure how I feel about them, idk I have mixed feelings but overall I like the car. And at least you have some extra power so I guess it's not fully an all show and no go car. After further review, it's determined that this isn't rice. Touchdown markusp.

After looking at it again, the interior is pretty overkill. Those driver side dash gauges are, interesting. Exterior still gets a thumbs up from me though.

i'd have to say that's a pretty good job un-ricing the car.

personally not a fan with the sound system under the hatch. you could also use a set of 06+ headlights? couldn't tell if you did the taillight upgrade. and restoring the dash to be closer lookin to oem would be good too

Body kits = ricer IMHO. I like the color though. I've moved on from ear-shattering stereo systems too, I like the stealthy systems now. Makes hauling groceries easier too! Yes, my Z is the grocery getter.
