First thing that comes to my mind is "why?" :ugh:

It's completely polarizing to me. Some of the elements I really like. But a number of them are horrific IMO. To each their own, though :tiphat: There's a lot of unique (to the Z) stuff there, so kudos to them for that.

DEpointfive0 02-21-2014 08:56 AM

Gorgeous.

At least you know it's a Filipino's

speedfreek 02-21-2014 08:58 AM

Hey we heard you like badges. So we put badges next to your badges....

There must of been a sale on chicken wire at Lowe's as well as piping. It is an abomination!

blackcherry20 02-21-2014 08:59 AM

That's A LOT of Nissan badging. I like the red accents.

:facepalm:

The push bar on the front is fantastic. :rofl2:

DEpointfive0 02-21-2014 09:01 AM

FL plates, looks like that... Filipino is not the first race that jumps out at me. I'm betting the car's got a horn that plays "La Cucaracha". :rofl2:

FPenvy 02-21-2014 09:03 AM

ok i'm going to hit up my florida contacts and send them here to see if they know the car. i gotta know now lol

Hey now be fair my 2011 Tacoma had the same V6 logo.

dmhenderson 02-21-2014 09:10 AM

Ok but let's say your Tacoma didn't have a V6 badge. Would you have gone out and purchased an aftermarket V6 badge?

The EXACT one?
Because I KNOW it's Toyota, I thought they discontinued the touching one before the 2010's, just wasn't positive when exactly

dmhenderson 02-21-2014 09:12 AM

Anyway, my questions are:
-Is it really boosted? I would like to see under the hood. Not that I don't believe the TURBO badge but uh...I'd like to see it please.

-What is the purpose of the chrome tube-y things?

-What is SPORTZ? I googled sportz/florida/370z and didn't see anything. Is it a car club? A speed shop maybe?

-What is the purpose of the antenna behind the license plate?

Chuck33079 02-21-2014 09:13 AM

It's the V6 badge we're hung up on when it appears he has a "turbo" sticker on it over the 370 badge?

And the door protectors that don't stick out farther than the door handles :rofl2:

The sad part, the owner thinks it looks good. He walks out to it in the morning and thinks he nailed it.

dmhenderson 02-21-2014 09:13 AM

Also what are the red doohickies on the doors right below the handles?
(PS I'm trying to be nice in case someone in here owns it)

I found it on reddit. I said I would reach out to the SE 370z community to see if anyone knew about the car - a long shot but I had to ask just...because.

I'll bet the plastic interior parts are all rattlecanned red too.

FPenvy 02-21-2014 09:16 AM

also DM i dont see the antenna fin on the roof so the antenna on the back could be a replacement?

dmhenderson 02-21-2014 09:16 AM

Nah. My '12 doesn't have an antenna fin and doesn't need it.

I won't be.

well i'm saying if he added something like nav or XM/SAT radio it could be the antenna for that even as the ungodly size that it is

The antenna gives his built in 1980's car phone reception

LMAO!!! The V6 disturbs me because he took it off a Toyota, not even went and bought the letters from VatoZone

Red things are door protectors as Chuck said

-What is the purpose of the chrome tube-y things? So one can play bumper cars on the freeway when running all that boost.
-What is SPORTZ? I googled sportz/florida/370z and didn't see anything. Is it a car club? A speed shop maybe?Clearly the owner's own speed shop who created this magnificent work of art.
-What is the purpose of the antenna behind the license plate?When you are in the SportZ club you get your own CB radio so you can talk to all the other cool kids

I have XM/Sirius. The antennas for those services sit on your dash. They're little magnetic block doodads that sit on your dash on a stick-on metal plate.

I don't think that's a CB antenna.

I am fascinated. This is a relatively new car and the craftsmanship looks really clean. Someone probably spent quite a bit of money to do....whatever this is.
I am genuinely curious! I'm not trying to be rude.

I don't think that's a CB antenna and I refuse to believe those are push bars/step bars.

FPenvy 02-21-2014 09:24 AM

ok i got a FL guy going to look into this for me lol

Chuck33079 02-21-2014 09:24 AM

That poor car. It never did anything to deserve this. Where's Sarah Maclachlan singing "Angel" to raise money for that poor, abused Z?

Ok that genuinely made me laugh outloud.

Scene: Opening strains of "aaaarms of an angel"
Camera pans slowly over SPORTZ
/cue sobbing

Maybe SPORTZ is the car's name.

That's because you're a rational human being. The problem is, this wasn't done by a rational human being. It was done by a retard. You've got to put yourself in his mindset to understand.

speedfreek 02-21-2014 09:26 AM

I want to know why is the Turbo badge blacked out and all the other ones left chrome or brushed?
