Painting your calipers IMHO says "Look, I got approved for a loan for a g35, but after the car and insurance payments, I can't afford anything else!" Just my 2 cents.

I'm with ya on that Rich... I'm not sure why it is that just because we may have paid a little more for our cars, that somehow makes us some kind of snobby, nose in the air people. The S and 240 owners, who seem lately to feel compelled to bash on this forum, and who need to spend a couple grand to get their HP up to the level of the G, do some fantastic work to their cars. I have seen some incredible conversions... the car of the month with a Vette motor is a prime example. I've done some modifying to my G, mostly with the intent to make it sound and look better. I KNOW that there are always going to be faster cars out there... less expensive ones that are quicker even. I am not interested in trying to spend 5 or 6 grand on a supercharger or TT system, just to get "beat" on the road by a Vette that has even more HP stock. It's apples and oranges... just a giant pissing contest. The hating has to stop. We're all car enthusiasts... why can't we treat each other with the same respect?SVTCOBRA wrote:G,What is attracting all of these G'haters of recent? Sure, we know they have a few things that we wish we could change, but the positives greatly out weigh the negatives. But, I think that's true of all cars. So, why go on a G35 forum and bash????Just to get a rise out of somebody?? I guess that could be it. It really doesn't upset me, it just makes me wonder what kind of 'person' does this. I picture an unloved, unwanted, ricer-child who just needs a hug and a couple of extra cylinders. So sad.

i have a G35 and i too like the painted calipers simply because it looks good on a black car...
prolly it's just me not being a true car enthusiast... but i dont really see a point of spending a few grands on a StopTech big brake kit or somethign fancy.. for me.. OEM brake system does its job ..... i'd rather spend that money on a nice watch or a nice brandname winter coat since its cold up here in Canada....
so i guess in your eyes i should sell my G35 and go back to a Honda Civic since i cant outbrake your ferrari-like braking system.....

So, this account is banned now as well....
Thanks Rich... I was teetering on the edge of a "can't we all just get along" speech! Had to use care there! That's been done, and I didn't want to plagiarize!!SVTCOBRA wrote:Well said BigWill!
If you're talking about me, I could have bought a g35 with cash. I decided on the 240 because it was a lot cheaper and I fixed up the 240 with the money I saved. In the end I have a car that is more unique because I personaly built it more than I could have built a g35. It's all personal choice. I prefer building a less expensive but well balanced high performance car over prestige because in the end I get to piss off a lot of people who spent a lot more on their cars.zozoka1212 wrote:Some people can't afford something than they talk crap about it.

Get that 240-chip off your shoulder for a while. It's gonna give you back troubles later in life
Personally I think you are doing the same exact thing right now only in a different "venue." I mean, you are a 240 owner... you don't own a G obviously, so what do you do? Lurk in other forums looking for a chance to bash someone with a car that they love? I haven't posted as much since I had my accident, but I had an 03 Coupe, and I almost never went to any other forum other than this one. Why? Because it doesn't have anything to do with me, I owned a G. Of course now I am sure you are going to say that now I am being a snob cause I had a G, sure go ahead. But that simply isn't true, I hang out with guys at work who all have "ricers" and I admire the work they have done to their cars with respect instead of sticking with my buddy who also had a G. I'm not saying that if you don't own a G you can't come to this forum, but if you are only going to come to this forum and bash, maybe you SHOULD leave. And I'd also like to point out that you have a "snobbish" attitude as well, what with all the, "I talk ish because I can" and "IMHO this" or "IMHO that." There was nothing humble about anything you said. And it is even MORE snobbish to throw around the fact that, oh, I had enough money to buy cash or *remembers and old post* post a picture of your sales receipt with the amount of money you paid or put down on a car. Who gives a rat back side how much money you have or don't have? Some people my not HAVE the money to pay for cash but can definitely afford financing and would much rather have a car they LIKE rather than settle for something they really don't want just cause they can't "pay for it in cash."S14SRPilot wrote:

Why? Because yes it does seem that g35 owners seem kind of snobby. They come to 240 meets with an attitude and keep to themselves. The only exception is if they see a nice 240. Otherwise, they seem to write us off. Why come at all? To "show up" 240 owners? That's kind of gay don't you think?
