OK guys, I'm not a moderator, but seriously, let's keep the personal attacks to a minimum. Phenom, my friend, I gotta tell you, you should really work on that anger thing of yours. You've already chased down a car that cut you off, and now you're arguing/yelling/ cursing at grown men on a computer
I think what folks are trying to say is that, for one, the A/C got enough slack from G35 owners when it first came out by them calling it a "poor man's G35.." but due to the facts that
1. The A/C has as many if not more luxury features than the older G35s2. The A/C is faster than all but 07 manual G35s3. The A/C costs only a couple grand less than a G35,
they soon realized that this was a stupid and factually incorrect comment, and was probably just being passed around to make the G35 guys feel better about the fact that they have a slower more expensive car (without push button start and Intellikeys)
OK, so with that said, many folks still continue to call A/C owners posers, which as mentioned before is a dumb statement. Many folks also feel that 2.5's that debadge are posers simply by debadging (either trying to pose as a 3.5 or trying to pose as a G35)
In any case, its obvious that there are gonna be a range of opinions out there regarding having a 2.5 A/C in the first place... now you add on debadging and rebadging as an Infiniti, it almost leads credence to their beliefs (even though that may not be your goal at all)
So I would say no to the Infiniti symbol, but I love your idea of making your coupe your coupe... but whatever you do, do it for you, not for us. In other words, don't even ask guys on here what they think, just do it, and then post it. But when you post it, don't ask guys what they think then either.. just add a disclaimer that anyone that doesn't like your idea can just keep it moving, or just not look at your thread.
I personally feel that debadging your car and calling it a 250 GT would be pretty unique and it still keeps with the Nissan theme, and doesn't at all try to make your car look like you're posing as a G35.
But that's just my .03!
