it has the plate tag, it has the expensive *** body kit and wing. cant see the wheels/front end, interior looks right.

what makes you think it's fake? if you buy it, take off the dealership advertisement above the z emblem

^^^ owns one.. he would know OP!!!! why would someone go through all that to make a fake Nismo?!?!! the kit alone costs thousands. not to mention the paint work, and seats. its not like its going from a 5 Series to a M5 type fake.

Maybe you have a fake Nismo too. Really though, what kind of crazy hydro do you have in Florida (I thought N.Cal had some of the best in the world, guess not )

Next time you are in doubt as to whether a Nismo is a Nismo or not, take more pictures with front, sides and back. That way we can tell whether it is real or a clone.

Who cares. Its cheap and looks like a Nismo so regardless just call it a nismo.

Only possible difference would be suspension and you will never be able to tell the difference anyway.
