you're telling me, i just wanted friendly advice that wasn't so biased go back to the beginning and see my earliest posts on this thread, i was helpful to the members who were interested in my interior and everything else. then by wanting to express where I come from through the Z, everyone got all their panties in a wad. I like ridiculous, excessive, extreme, etc. and that obviously is not supported by "Z lovers" they are very traditional, and only want to go fast (something I have absolutely no interest in at all). thank god I didn't ask what everyone thought about us modifying an 6" chevrolet truck lift kit to fit on the Z so we could fit 26"-30" wheels under it. anyway i'm over it, so hopefully the personal attacks with quit;(example) 25 cent, dddiirty south, etc. have a good day devildog

I'm with you Devildog, wtf you talkin about Steve?

I'm with Dkmura on all this, form follows function, if it helps my car perform better then it's certainly my first option. I see no point to a 20" heavy rim covered in chrome.

Big chrome rims, outlandish bodykit, huge wings and bright colored lights are commonly referred to as rice. If that's what you like, more power to you. But as you can see most people here aren't into throwing flashy things on their cars to say "look at me! I've got more money than I know what to do with!"

Having street smarts and other places in this country having worse crime than here has nothing to do with what you put on your car. Just face the fact that what you want to do with your car isn't appreciated here and deal with it. If you like the idea and looks of it go for it, but don't start throwing around a race card because someone doesn't like 20" rims.

Steve, check out this link to see what your Z *could* look like: https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tires/209096-pinstriped-my-rims.html

You can go any route you wish with the mods, but a car like that will get a ton of looks and for the right reasons. 19" wheels, bodykit, and a drop will give you a very nice looking balanced car.

So since this has died down a bit, my curiosity is killing me Reno911 Tahoe Steve. You must still be checking this thread.

Where was it where I pointed out that I had insecurities with minorities? I believe it's you that has these insecurities as there wasn't one mention in anyones posts in regards to race, or anything derogatory towards minorities.

Comparing one of the worst natural disasters in history to a couple of psycho punk kids who were starved for attention clearly shows you have little to no intellegence. To compare these 2 events is laughable, because quite frankly there really is no comparison. Perhaps next time you can ask your landscaper for some advice on the subject.

Now on to the real questions, since money and big pimpin is so important to you.
If you have $4500 or so per month to do whatever with, why have a Z? It seems there are plenty more other cars out there that would better fit into a high rollers budget like yours, just wondering why you don't own one.

My thoughts exactly! I can just picture myself or another enthusiast coming around that curve and slamming right into this Z.

I am speechless...I am without speech.
