Canadian models have rear foglights!

AB370Z · 02-19-2009, 10:25 PM

In Canada we have more limited interior/exterior colour combos, no illuminated kick plates....but we have rear foglights.

I didn't bother with too many pictures because it was snowing!!

Well damn, if only we could combine the two models.

^^ that would be too simple

that's awesome, i like the rear fogs...........on those bad winter days....gives an indication to back off my bumper..try to take some pics with it on please

frost · 02-19-2009, 10:31 PM

I wouldn't ever use it, I just want it because it's functional and I wouldnt have to explain to everyone why I had a blank piece of plastic on the back.

Just stopped at the dealership on the way home to check it out...i'm test driving one on Saturday if there's not a foot of snow by then! It only started snowing again today after being quite warm here the past while. So I'll try and get more pics then.

^^ same here, warm weather and then BAM...... wet snow.....breaks ppl's backs

pics of it wold be nice.......do i hear ppl requesting part numbers from the States for it.....lol

I am trying to understand this with the fog light? Personally I wouldn't want it even if I could activate it. Is it just because its there and they have it in Jap? Most of the euro spec cars in Germany have the rear fog but the american specs don't I always think they look bad. The 370z Fog is tastefully set-up being integrated like that. But because it makes it different doesn't make it appeal to me. Just like getting Fairlady Z emblems. Just MO trying to understand why those that want it really want it.

nogoodname · 02-20-2009, 10:31 AM

I would like to have it for those night drives and those horrible winter storm days......

Cown3d · 02-20-2009, 02:11 PM

im failing to see it...
but the again i dont have the us spec rear pictomemorized

nogoodname · 02-20-2009, 06:02 PM

par4bmw · 02-20-2009, 07:00 PM

Have there been any with the red see throughs that are not fog lights?

is it me or doesnt this pic of the foglight look photoshoped? the red looks fake.

AB370Z · 02-21-2009, 09:53 AM

^^^^Photoshopped???? I am not the Internet pros that you guys are - I don't even know how to photoshop like everybody else here.

Boy, you and Nogood are sure needy! Do you guys have jobs too?

I talked to a salesman when I was looking at it outside on Thursday night and it is a functional fog light...tell me why a Canadian model would have a red tail light type piece of plastic and the US model would have a black piece of plastic and both would be non-functional fog lights. Ask yourself if that would make sense from an inventory perspective to have a third type of fog light after the JDM and US version??

The level of scepticism here borders on paranoia...not sure why i bothered posting.

That said, I am visiting the dealership today for a testdrive this time. Maybe if I feel up to it, I will take a picture with a light on.

LOL...dont get me wrong, i just thought the fog light looked weird...

AB370Z · 02-21-2009, 11:13 AM

OK. I tried to upload this one at the same time before and not sure why it didn't work. I couldn't get any better pictures at the time and it was cold and snowing so i didn't waste too much time...also only from a crappy cell phone.
