Message (no I'm not selling my Z haha)

It seems that "these days" whenever I see another Z32 on the street, it always seems to be one that's beat up, beat down, riced out, or just plain ugly. I realize that these cars are becoming very cheap for kids to buy now, and that the trend of seeing Z32's like this isn't going to go away anytime soon, but I just feel like these cars no longer get the respect they deserve. The nice Z32's are the ones that come out once and a while to car shows or to track days, and that's it.

Many of the ones I'm seeing now are trying to be "stanced" or a "drift car" since that is still the in thing.

Granted, I think we all had a "phase" we went through where we thought this stuff looked cool, but it just hurts to look at some of them now. Kids think because it has "twin turbos" that it's going to be faster than anything else out there.


RANTMODE off. :)
