Vert keeps looking better and better Greg. When you don't think it could look any better, you top yourself again.

Also the weather sucks in Indiana, I would kill just to be able to drive my 240 in the winter months yet alone a vert.

Well, I do like the look, but I also liked it before, as in the cover car on 240sxconvertible.com. Actually I like it the old way more, but since that "car" doesn't exist anymore, maybe it's time for a new car on the home page.

but that will help.

Don't forget Greg, you still owe me badass video of the vert doing donuts and making babies and old ladies cover their ears... and young ladies grabbing their box.

That 240 video of mine is waiting.

wow Greg, your car looks very good! and surprisingly i like the pocket flares u put on there!

I dig the wheels, especially the gold!

And depending on what type of pin striping u had in mind, it could work VERY well!

Greg, I'm gonna be honest with you here.

This new look is great and all, but I really liked the old look (minus those headlights you had) better. You definitely didn't make it worse, I just preferred the black on black look. It would have been awesome if the tonneau cover was made out of CF and the front seats were all black but oh well...

Good job either way.

So what are the stats on those wheels and tires?Wheels look like 18x10 and 18x11 or so?Tires are what like 245 and 265's???

Looks fantastic.. just curious to hear the exact measurements.

Bye the way.. You HAVE to bring the 'vert to Atlanta next year. We are going to have a major 'vert showing there.

Wouldn't do the pinstripe. But I would consider a 2-tone bottom portion to match the gold, may be weird though.

Also I'd tint the clear section of the tails now.

The only additional gold accents I would make would be a silvia badge in gold on the hood, and repaint the silvia trunk lock on the trunk. just those two small gold accents would be enough to carry the theme properly. I like gold.. in small quantities. Too much and it looks like you're trying to be a "donk".

One other potential... gold tips on the exhaust pipes.. but no more than that.. No pinstripes.. no two tone.. nothing..
