Thumbs down NISMO rip-off

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-...=p4506.c0.m245

could have almost gotten away with it, if it had the right type of spoiler.

Yeah i saw this listing a few days ago, it will be a shame if someone actually picks this one up thinking its a nismo edition Z. Though it does clearly state that the wheels and body kit were added. On a side not does the rear end on this Z look a bit off or something, I have to be honest i dont much care for the rear ends on the nismos but the rear on this one seems off and a bit uglier if i may say so

i wonder how much it cost to put all the parts on this car. the parts arent cheap. they should have done the wing also. if the car only has 5000 miles on it, it wouldnt be a bad buy depending what model the car originaly was. if it is a touring with the nismo kit added just for looks it would still be a nice car, just not a nismo. im not sure if i like the black on black either, no different color on the bottom of the kit.

Here is the title for the auction - " 08 Nissan 350Z Touring Auto, NISMO Body and Wheels, NAV "

it does not say that this IS a NISMO z.

so, what's the big deal ?

Yep and it sold for just shy of $33,000. Could have bought an actual used NISMO for that much.
