I'm sure he was joking. OEM's wouldn't touch these modded cars with a 10 foot pole. Not that I would know anything about that... ;)

lol its not about the glitz and gadgets. its about the soul, the passion....:driving:
I don't have any of those problem my Canadian 40th came fully load sport/nav/touring so the only thing I feel I am missing is boost! But that will change eventually I know I will go FI sooner or later :tup: so there is no comparison to there genesis IMO

Dealerships are a different beast, its easy to get them excited. We were speaking OEM's. I do have a lot of experience in this area. ;)

Signed. Sealed. Delivered. Yet another armbar for Ronda Rousey. First title defense for the UFC women's bantamweight champion. Historic.

I didn't miss it, thats cool. Was it Nissan PR? Nissan manufacturing? I speak purely from manufacturing where the automobile company has a huge following with customers who mod the vehicles. Often times they offer these people special days, plant tours, photo-ops (much like this Nissan/Car and Driver thing going on), you get the picture. When it comes down to engineers actually caring... that isn't going to happen with your car or mine. GTM or Fast Intentions would have a much better chance at that (still wouldn't happen). But I'm not telling you anything you don't already know.

When you get your car into a tuner magazine and/or start ripping crazy times on a track, that's when the fun starts. Sponsorships, $$$, etc :tup:

:iagree: with what your saying but it also helps who you know!

Gale if you want coverage I know the guy that runs this Canadian car site/magazine that you might recognize if you go to the auto show or import fest.

AMF | Automotive Lifestyle Magazine – AutoMotoFoto.net

Anyway the guy has also done work for some other magazines like PAS and Import Tuner :tup:
