Found on the 'bay:

UGLY fake Nismo Roadster

Yeesh!

 

OMG, the steering wheel is the worst part!

 

UGH!! idiot dealers!

 

They slapped alot of useless "crap" on there. Funny how there's nothing "nismo" under the hood.

 

Did anyone see that supercharged one on ebay?

 

Yeah... I saw a 43K Enthusiast Model with a FEW Nismo components in Miller Nissan (Van Nuys, CA) 4 mos ago.

 

I love this part "...Carbon Fiber Trim for a true sport experience. This perfect car is also equipped with an am / fm / 6 cd changer stereo with the optional BOSE sub-woofer that really pumps...."

Barf!

This is so much FALSE ADVERTISING! I believe it should read "...the optional BOSE sub-woofer that really SUCKS..."

 

Call me crazy but I kinda like the carbon fiber.. The NAV door should be carbon fiber as well mind you...
What, exactly makes it Nismo, though? Belt covers, floor mats and some stickers on the outside of the car? I would think Nismo oughtta involve some sort of engine upgrades...

 

maybe they threw in the nismo oil cap

 

its still there.

 

ok, you are CRAZY!! j/k... but if you are talking about the ones on the steering wheel then you really are crazy.

seriously, though if you like the carbon fiber look, then you gotta check out elegant wood designs.

the only reason i didnt get the carbon fiber center section is that i have a roadster and i was afraid that the glare from the sun would blind me even with shades on. although... the interior cf is not real. but, i dont think it is all that important being that it is for looks only anyways.

i got carbon fiber nissan emblem fillers from them and they look so much better imho than the snap in type. cannot compare the two. my friend has the snap in ones and he regrets not getting the ones i have.

 

I saw a daytona blue coupe at the dealership yesterday. It has nismo exaust and intake. They are advertising it as being 300 hp and charging waaaay too much for it. stupid dealers, someone should buy the car and sue the **** out of them for a false HP rating.

 

Nope. That entire "stick on" fake CF kit is making me

 

well ive sent the ebay seller an email saying they should be ashamed of themselves. i thought about sending an email to all the bidders as well lol...but decided that if it gets to a stupid amount (last i looked, it was at 25K), I will then consider it.

 

I agree.

CF is cool if you replace a piece with a lighter version made of CF. It is strong a light and all that good stuff.

But if you just tack it on top of existing parts you are just adding weight.

Sure it could be just for decoration. Taste is a personal choice. But to me carbon fiber that is done just for show reminds me of the prism foil they used to put in the old "burt reynolds style" trans ams. It might look pretty out of date pretty quick.

How about a giant screaming eagle on the hood?

To each his own I guess.

 

That seat belt extender sure is nice, though.

 

Hey ETX, are you talking about Tamaroff Nissan in Southfield? The are chargin an extra $3000 for Nismo Exhaust and intake. That's a load of S***. Probably why it's still there. I saw that car about a month ago.

 

yeah, other than the exhaust, it looks like they put on all the nismo crap that does nothing for the car.

belt extenders (eh, at least this required some thought)
emblems (spot on placement too douchebags-did you see the one on the back?)
floormats (probably don't give you the Z floormats so its not even really a bonus)
license plate holder (at least 25 more hp)
oh man, and those 'stick on' cf steering elements (they're so... i mean... ok i got nothing. these really look great!!!!)

Good lord. I just want to know what the reserve is set at. I don't see brembo's, so its probably only a base or enthusiast. The sad thing is, they'll probably get some **** to pay 2K over touring price for it.

 

no all it needs is a pep boys whale tail.
