After seeing it more, I really like the rear bumper the vents do it for me. Might have to put one of those on the short list.

agree with that too, it doesn't go right through the middle of the rear view mirror lol it is visible but it's not dead center which is nice

It's a nice looking car, and I like the exclusivity, but bang for the buck performance, it just doesn't cut it.

Wow I am surprised no one likes the wing. I personally love it. Reminds me of a Porsche GT2 wing

MC, I agree with you the Nismo Z looks awesome in Platinum Graphite.

Thanks for the pics. I want one. I need to sell my Vette first though.

Thanks Matt! This is a great color too. I know why you like it, as it reminds you of your original Chrome Silver S-tune.
