I have a better question, why do you care? Seriously, it's not your car, why does it matter to you what this guy does? I just can't understand threads like this.

don't say that too loud, the JDM inquisition will come down on you with no mercy. This thread is actually not bad, some get downright nasty over something as silly as a plastic badge that says "silvia". I have seen people get less worked up about ethnic cleansing in Bosnia.

Well its an outright lie. It's an american G35 not a Skyline. Its just one of the things that irks me. Its a nice car, but its not a Skyline do dont say it is. And if your gonan clone one, dont just stop at the decklid logos. The kid driving just pulled out of the high school, so that might explain it.

Why the hell do you care so much? Is it causing your eyes to bleed?

Let me write it out in crayon for you. The Infiniti G35 is the USDM version of the Nissan Skyline 350GT (V35). What do you think its based off of?

You're acting like he has GT-R badges on it. If he did, i'd understand what you meant. If it's not a Skyline, be sure to tell Nissan that they made a mistake on their Japanese website. Then tell all the 240 owners along with Z owners that their cars aren't Silvias or Fairladies.

Did you ever stop to think that the owner wasn't finished yet?

And just what the fuk is that supposed to mean? Don't be ignorant.

I think it's cute when people put JDM badgin on the UDSM counterparts.Not wrong, if you're looking at the chassis and model, but cute.

But it's downright freakin hilarious to watch the "purests" get bent out of shape by it.As was said, not like it's claiming to be a GT-R, just the JDM equivalent to itself. No harm in that, and why is it so damned important to you. Not your car.

It is done in the world of Z cars all the time. 240Z ~ 350Z owners like to put on Fairlady Z emblems.I have fun with them by saying their steering wheel is on the wrong side.

Aside from the novalty, why care? Unless they are trying to sell it under false pretenses.

Could it be that you did'nt have a nice car in high school? It sounds suspiciously like you are jealous and the fact that this kid has more than perhaps you had at that age and IYO doesn't appreciate it makes you mad. Close?

Maybe I should slap 240SX badging on my car just to twist peoples nipples.
