Geez, that car is pretty eff'd up. It was a stolen car and wrecked twice..
Dunno why the dealership didn't put on stock Nismo parts.. I would have fought for those pieces if they were missing from my car when I bought it..

Yeah its a real deal nismo but c'mon man, i would have put the oem back on. Everything looks legit he lists everything that happen to the car so i would just take it with a grain of salt. Sucks for the person who decides to buy the car.
The interior looks correct for a NISMO, though no clear pics of the NIsmo # tag to identify the car. Also I am sure somebody could run the vin which would show this car was ONCE an authentic Nismo. Looks like caca with the wrong rear end and rear valance.
It is a real nismo, I looked at it the other day.
He didn't like the rear end of the nismo so when he bought it wrecked he put the stock back end on it and some cheap speed-daddy exhaust (sounds alright when you get on it but rattles at idle).
Paint job is fail... drivers door and rear quarter don't match, rear passenger quarter above the tire has bubbles, hatch is off just a smidge barley noticable. I went over it quite thoroughly and that was all I could really find.
Pretty decent stereo and speakers.
Handles pretty well. Was parked on a hill so I got a good view of underneath all the work looked alright in the rear end not sure of anything that would be different from the regular Z but it did have the nismo suspension.
I used to work in a body shop so I know what to look for somewhat. I offered him $15,000 and he said no(figure worse comes to worse I could part it out), I am glad he said no though. The more I thought about it the more it sounded like a bad idea.
His ad makes it sound like the factory repaired it but it was repaired somewhere and inspected at the factory. He has all the documentation from the repair as to the parts that were replaced etc. He did call me back and ask if I still wanted it but I am buying #582 today so I am all set. So i'm guessing no one is offering him anything.

It's probably the same one this guy went to go look at last week:

This. What's wrong with the engine bay? Looks the same as: http://cdn-www.rsportscars.com/image...07_eng1600.jpg
