Also because the 350 is falling in value it makes them attainable for people to put out of spec wheels and camber on it. From what I've experience most stance guys like to stance out a car they can afford to beat up. You guys keep the oil pan manufacturer in business.
Reference:
NSX can be had for 20K now a days.
GTR is dipping now.
300ZX used to be 40k+
C5 Corvettes are like 15k
These mass produce cars will never hold the same collector value as a old Ferrari or Ashton. But damn it I love this car and I don't like your taste in wheels, suspension, looks, women, etc. But that makes me a hater while you're not a hater by hating on my love to keep my car functional? Hypocrite.

I have love for the Z car as well. My love for the Z goes as far back as the 240z. But the point I'm making is that some of these guys can't respect or appreciate one's work whether it's functional or not.
And sadly, it goes the other way with all the stance fanboys buying replica wheels and mangling their fenders who can't appreciate a functional track car because "too much wheel gap" or "not enough camber".
Meh. It's whatever. People will always be close-minded no matter what it is.

You know there is this thing called depreciation. When a new model comes out the older one falls in value. You're also comparing a 90K+ sports car to a 30k+ budget minded sports car. To be fair compare a 911 to a GTR. The Z is likely to be compared to a Boxster or Cayman.

And I never once said hater...I can't stand that word and I want to choke whoever says it.
And how am I a hypocrite? I didn't say I didn't like functional setups at all! How about you read all of my posts instead of the one sentence that has clearly gotten all of you bent out of shape. lol

Clearly you decided to pick the only thing I said that got under your skin. If you read the rest of my post, I stated that I was over the whole stance scene being that I live close to a track that I can enjoy myself on.

The people that don't like it they just don't like it and if you like it then fine like it. I was just assessing your one comment that had nothing to do with your argument on appreciating ones work.
And yes I did read the rest of your post but it just seems like you're out looking for a fight.

What Im trying to say was appreciation is one thing but biased appreciation is what was going on here.

But I guess because I have been on both ends of the modding spectrum, I look at things differently.
And as others said in the thread already, "to each their own". But you won't find any of us jumping in someone's track build thread and shiitting on their Voltex wing.

Noob? Hardly. And for you to assume I am a kid is slightly amusing. Also, based off your spelling a grammar level, I'm gonna go ahead and assume you dropped out of school in the 4th grade.
