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

So the name really doesn't belong solely to the people of Japan or the Z.

Actually, if you're totally serious about getting a FairladyZ badge, then you should convert to RHD, get even more emissions friendly, and also put a limiter on your car at 155kmh (is that the Japan limit?).

seriously though guys, where can I get this badge?

Now you are feeling me. Just like the nismo badges on VW beetles (see the key to naming a car that doesnt have your trim level or anything close to it is to name a car that is NOTHING like what you are talking about...see? In this case a VW beetle would be a super base model 18" wheel having, cassette tape playin...no tint, square wheels...LAME *** Z!!!)

If those with nismo badges make you wanna choke someone, because they have no nismo bits, then how is seeing Fairlady badges on a left hand drive car gonna make me feel? you only need ONE DAMN PART!!! a steering wheel on the RIGHT SIDE! Anything absent that and yes..you are a poser...

And to the cat with the YOU MAD BRO picture...IM HELLA MAD BRO! (playing MW3 right now actually!)

Dude,

stop playing mw3, proven to shorten your lifespan

People agree, those people are called ricers. I still think FairladyZ is not a huge deal.

thread is definitely /thread.

I believe in the Z legacy, not some badge or drive configuration. The Z soul does not change because you do not see eye to eye with others.

I don't care if you put AMG rims on it's not an AMG car, same goes for NISMO IMO.

+1.........

I agree with you a 110%. The whole Nismo badge on a regular Z with no Nismo parts, or even just the exhaust equals EPIC FAIL. I have seen tons of idiots putting the AMG badges on regular Benz's & that equals EPIC FAIL. The 3 Series & people putting the M3 badge I have not came across to my knowledge. I do not understand why people want to put badges like the Nismo, AMG, M3.....when clearly their car is nowhere close to resembling the true nature of that actual badge (Nismo, AMG, M3.....). I'm like stop trying to be, or have something that it is not b/c you are just going to make yourself look stupid & the car too. These people are just posers. The whole Fairlady Z doesn't bother me.

I don't see anything wrong at all with putting a fairlady badge on. That being said, I prefer to debadge all of my cars.

my fair lady? hahahahah did you know lice is born blind? relevant? nope!

First there was no connection from the Datson Sport to the first Z.

And second if your upset about people labeling non-Jspec Z as a Fairlady then it's hypocritical of you not to be upset about Japan labeling a car after an American Musical.
