Would anyone confuse this with the Z?

Professordave. You have the same white car and saved 200K. You are a smart shopper.

Haha you must be delusional! Nice car

I'm sure some around here might think they could make their Z look like an Italia.

So if I black out my headlights, do some fancy painting of the grille, and lower my Pearl White Z, can I tell people it's an Italia?

Beautiful car.

If you do that, I will put a Z-badge on my G20 and see how it goes.

If you can get your Z to burst into flames like the many Italias that have, then yea maybe people can mistake it.

No, I belive some of the adhesive in the early cars was flammable. Ferrari has issued a TSB and is fixing those sold, and has changed the adhesive.

ETA: Dave beat me to it. Was quoting from page 2.

+1
It was adhesive on the rear deck that was getting heated from the engine and catching fire. As you said they fixed that by changing to higher grade adhesive.

Porsche... maybe (if it didnt have a big Nissan logo on the front n back) Ferrari... not enough paint in the world to make it look like a 230,000$ car
