Nissan 370Z Forum  

Is it just me, or do you laugh at all the "Fairlady" badges?

One thing this thread did, was it woke up the Z car guys... But we don't have to get all stinky about it...This isn't yahoo.. Different things for different people..

Different things for different people.. If you think it is stupid, don't put one on your car..

Like I said earlier , I can agree that cloning a Muscle car that is not a factory Car is terrible..

Or putting AMG badges on a Benz is terrible, but putting the rims on is cool..

And the fairlady issue, sure we can discuss it, but are we going to throw jabs at each other to prove our point /

I already did that on this post and I was the fool.. So anyone doing it , well, it goes beyond discussing the badges and into stupidity...

At 23 posts, you sound more like someone from yahoo.. Also talking about people's weight and how many car's they have ? Are you twelve ?

It's like throwing a rock at a hornet's nest. I want to beg the mods not to lock this yet because I want to see everyone's opinion, lol

Actually, I wouldn't, because I think it's ugly.
Also, I hate Hyundais right now. Probably will forever.

the only thing Korean I'm fanboy about is our professional gaming league for starcraft.

That is why I am moderating myself.

I already made myself look like a fool when I got all hornet like...And we fixed that.

Actually a humbling experience that I need now and then.. I am a genius and an Idiot all in one.

Let us see how long this thread lasts and if we can all calm down..

I don't think this is out of hand. It reminds me of experiences where you have a group of people who are all rather civilized, but are extremely opinionated and feel that they have to talk over each other. Everyone kind of laughs at another's expense, but no one is ever really hurt, and in the end, no general opinion is made. Everyone still holds onto their own.

True, keep the tequila out of it, and we can discuss it without name calling, agreed.

Add Tequila, and all bets are off, haha..

Its all fun and games homes......calm down. It is a relevant topic. Yes it is poser to me, but that is because I grew up there...actually owned one. Therefore, I see the nostalgia and uniqueness of it. When I brought it back to the states, it was a novelty and I loved it.....now, I long to see my old brand of hooptie and when I see a fairlady badge, im like....yea i remember that then....LETDOWN!

That's it I'm getting some 3.7 and some V6 badges and making a 3.7Z Nistang.

Putting NISMO on a 370z with no MISMO parts is just pretending.
I agree, you need NISMO parts for a NISMO badge, and MISMO parts for a MISMO badge.
