Nothing terribly exciting in this one, but I figured I'd scan it in anyway to make it available for everyone.

if they are adding 9k to the base price these aero parts should be carbon fiber.

this has the sports package, with takes it down to roughly 5k more. wheels, body kit, interior ish, sounds like its about 2k overpriced to me.

I just can't make up my mind if I like the front end more or less. It's one of those things I'll have to see side by side in real life.

also the less restrictive h-pipes instead of the y-pipes

but if you go on nissanusa and build one it starts off around 1k over tour+sport

When I last looked it up, the retail cost of the NISMO 370Z was only like $485 more than the 2008 NISMO 350Z. That's pretty impressive.

ita a great deal if you ask me.

I used to ask myself "why do theme parks charge like triple, quadruple or more for their food, drinks?"

Then I said to myself, "I'll either pack my backpack with food, or...I'll visit a restaurant prior to me entering the park, and I'll pig out so that I won't have to eat for like 8-9 hours."

Then I threw up on Magic Mountain roller coasters, and this is the reason my friends, that theme parks can justify their "overpriceyness" for their food and drinks.
