That doesn't bother me seeing Fair Lady. I'm like who effen cares really....what Fair Lady.

Now with that being said. What I hate & as I stated before is people with regular Mercedes Benz's & they want to put the AMG badge on the back. There is nothing AMG about their car even if you have the rims or exhaust......WOW. The same with the Nismo badge on a regular Z. EFFEN POSERS.

That is the strangest license plate I've ever seen.

I really like the fairlady badge, but I also really like my no badge look as well. Idk.. still deciding if I want to put it on or not.

To anyone who doesn't know what it is "fairlady" sounds a little feminine. But to each his own. I think people do it just to be different. You know, just how all the goth people are different all dressed in black

I like mine. It pays tribute and makes the car slightly different. In my area I am the only one with the badge and everyone loves it.

People ask me what a 370 is much less if I had this on my car. They really would flip and not know what it was lol. All people know is the 350.

So he bought a Fairlady Z but he hates the Fairlady Z....

LOL.... does he know what he likes?????

While I wouldn't go out of my way to change the badge, I like the Fairlady moniker. It has more heritage and makes it so that the model name isn't just a hodgepodge of numbers and letters like so many other cars now (335is, TL, S60, M4-12C, CTS, etc).

This is sooo true! The majority of ignorants know our cars by 350z only let alone a Fairlady Z!!

All I can say is that I love looking at the confused faces when a car pulls up behind me an notices the badge. They are like wwhhhatt car is that??? Pointing an everything... LOL

It's my personal opinion that Nissan engineers are likely proud that Americans do this as a tribute to their work. Let's not forget why the American version isn't badged as fairlady, it' s not because it's left hand drive.

I don't think anyone here is putting the badge on to be a poser. No one here thinks they have the jap version. I think the vast majority simply do it because they love their car. If we were posers we would order it in japanese writing

Is there any difference, other than right hand drive, that the Jap cars have?
