Haha you must be delusional! Nice car

I'm sure some around here might think they could make their Z look like an Italia.

Beautiful car.
If you do that, I will put a Z-badge on my G20 and see how it goes.

If you can get your Z to burst into flames like the many Italias that have, then yea maybe people can mistake it.

Porsche... maybe (if it didnt have a big Nissan logo on the front n back) Ferrari... not enough paint in the world to make it look like a 230,000$ car

IMO

it would be terrible for the owner of the ferrari if some people would confuse his car with the z because i believe the service expenses and insurance premiums of his car over 5 years could cost more than the z
