Your comments don't have any bearing on my comments buddy, let alone screw them up. To each his own. I don't care how much hp the car has I think the art looks like crap and screws up the overall look of the car. That's my opinion. If you don't like it tough shxx. It's his car and he can do whatever he wants to it, but I don't have to like it.

I am not into the import tuner/custom car scene were big amps, speakers, video screens, lambo doors and video game players are the craze. Except for having a decent stereo the other stuff is useless in a Z in my opinion. You might as well put it in a Escalade or a Yukon if you want a platform for all that stuff. The car may be fast too, but the art to me takes away from the other things he has done to it. Just my opinion.

That's an awesome roadster from a good friend. BTW, he's won for best graphics twice at HIN already this year.

Like I said before to each his own, but not my thing. Maybe I am getting too old, but I just don't get the custom car scene. A Z with graphics/art all over it, big amps, speakers, video screens, lambo doors and a video game player doesn't appeal to me.

That's cool. It's not for everyone and certainly all are entitled to their own opinion. I think we all agree the Z is just an awesome car.

Your right. The Z is an awesome car, no matter how you mod it or for that matter don't mod it.

+2...its an amazing machine..both visually, and performance wise. I was watching that thing in my rear-view mirror on the twisties, and it's a sight to be seen....baddaassss in my book. Oh, he won 2nd place in FI modified in this year's car show, and also took top honors for "Best Audio-Visual system". Congrats Brett!

We had a blast....hopefully those that missed the event this year (Ron) will find a way to attend next year. Just say you have to leave for emergency business!
