Nissan 370Z Forum  

Is it just me, or do you laugh at all the "Fairlady" badges?

Old cars in Japan are cheap because they have to pay outrageous JCI rates the older the car gets.

The badges came from the factory, and it is a number's matching true Z/28 with the build sheet.

Otherwise, yes, I would be a "poser".
That's not a Fairlady Z at all!

I thought you where from japan?? I hate it when people from one place act like people from another place. Why are you even speaking english? If people can't put things on their cars that came from a different place, why is it ok for you to speak a language that isn't yours? Hypocrite much, it seems like the same intolerance BS to me. See we all can play this stupid game.

[QUOTE=370Z Purist;1762075]Depends, if it's bromo, then I'm not too sure.

Oh that would be important all right...Wrong in every sense, and i would rather have the phony badges on my car, than Brohmo badges ..

If he had typed it in Japanese, most of us wouldn't have been able to read it, and most of us would have assumed he was a normal, calm, cool dude.

It sits in the garage next to the 370Z and tries to flirt with her...

But again, it is the real thing..I do not like when people add badges to the old Muscle cars...Or the stripes..

So I guess I am a purist, twisted freak...
