I agree. here's a quick pic of my old ride- I thought the drop/spacer combo with the stock sport wheels was perfect. The wheels are forged and pretty damn light, not to mention they look great. I didn't see any reason to move to a different set. Add in the lip kit and it was all done for me.

The GTR looks awesome for those who know what it is. For everyone else, it just looks like an Impala (rear view) or Charger. And then of course they hear it.

The Z has been in a place of its own, reserved for things like Porsche's, since the 370. The 350 is nice, but not in a universally-loved sort of way. The 370 has few detractors, to be honest. It's priced much like the GTR, to undercut the competition that it *really* is targeting, and does it brilliantly.

The rest of the Nissan line is pretty boring. The Juke looks kinda neat for what it is, though. The Maxima looks fine, but I constantly can't tell some Altimas from some Maximas and that annoys me; much like the old Pontiac G8 didn't distinguish itself.

Then again, none of the rest of the line is looking to impact the sort of people who like the Z or GTR.

I absolutely love the way the 370Z looks from every direction. The only other cars that I feel this way about are those made by McLaren. The rest of the Nissan lineup just makes the Z stand out that much more. I also have a black Frontier Pro-4X crew cab and it looks pretty good for a truck.

I buy my sports cars in the most spartan version possible with an emphasis on performance. Base model with sport package and 7AT. No reason for all the other distractions with more stuff to eventually have issues.
