They can actually see how the car was driven up to the point of failure. This helps cover the dealers from people that beat cars and break something expecting that the warranty will pay for it.

I am pretty sure they can NOT see how it was driven... from what I understand there is no black box in this car...

I never see a max tastefully modded... i think a nice set of vossen wheels would go real well on the Max, black out the grill but leave the nissan emblem, swap the fog bulbs for HID's and do the headlights and it would be drool worthy I think, lol.... but if its your DD, id leave it alone and concentrate on making the Z where you want it to be first...

btw my motor was replaced due to OC but it was in and out of the dealer within 36 hours... im glad I lucked out... You get the Z today?
