GC350z Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I'm a little confused by the ad. He says Two pictures are of the car from my phone, a couple of the press car in Japan, I have some others from the agents so if you need them give me a mail like the one fo the froint and dials Would it be correct to say that the photo of the dials is from a different car? This is where I'm confused. If the dials are not from a different car which is clearly an auto what does this line mean in the spec? Exclusive rear bumper (6-speed MT models only) On a different note, I really don't like the fender moldings. I'm always reminded of accident damage when I see it.

Stew Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Good price and I'm sure it's a good car but the rear is just so horrible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesterfield Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 If the car is an auto, then it may just have had the manual rear bumper put on. The rear isnt my particular cup of tea, but each to their own - the front looks nice and smooth though, perhaps with the nissan badge smoothed out on the front it would make the lines look even better on the front?

Zzzz... Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 you have to consider the beautiful lines of the original concept and the harmonious flow of the styling lines on the original version. This is a cannibalisation of the originals purity of design...a maxpowered version of what was a beatifull concept... A ferrari with halford ripspeed kit... I much prefer .. i don't know .... something like this ... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/282431.htm opsss... that will be mine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 It does lose some of the original flowing lines of the standard zed imo, i find the arches a bit disturbing, they look as though they have been rolled outwards i do prefer the original smooth look http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/282431.htm (randomly picked from PH) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snarf1974 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 this car is not uk registered and has not passed any esva tests so that is why it is so cheap !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 PRESS RELEASE: Nissan 350Z / Fairlady Z Nismo: Based on the new Fairlady Z, the Version NISMO fuses NISMO's extensive racing expertise, gained through competing in SUPER GT and other race series as the Nissan works team, with the Autech Japan’s extensive experience in manufacturing completely customized vehicles. The new model provides a heightened dimension of sporty driving pleasure, backed by the Fairlady Z's renowned performance capabilities. The customl Version Nissan can be purchased at Nissan dealers nationwide and receives the same after-sales service as regular Fairlady Z models. To help enhance driving performance, the Version NISMO’s body stiffness has been improved by increasing the welded area of the body panels and adding additional reinforcement bars and panels, among other measures. High-grip Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R tires have been adopted to absorb high input forces from the road surface. In addition, the suspension system has been totally retuned to further boost cornering performance. An optimum balance of handling and driving comfort has also been achieved by adopting Performance Dampers that effectively damp force inputs to the body. The exterior design was developed on the basis of meticulous studies conducted by the Design Group and the Vehicle Performance Testing Group. A supercomputer was used to run design simulations based on aerodynamic data collected with SUPER GT race cars. The distinctive body form obtained as a result provides superior handling and stability, together with aerodynamic characteristics for creating effective downforce. The interior is also distinguished by its unique, premium-quality ambience, resulting from the use of exclusive metallic-looking genuine leather trim. Seats are upholstered with a perforated Alcantara center section that holds the body more firmly during sporty driving. Exclusive front bumper Exclusive combination meter cluster Exclusive sill protectors Exclusive aluminum accelerator pedal Exclusive rear bumper (6-speed MT models only) Exclusive rear spoiler Exclusive large-diameter sports muffler Exclusive front & rear fender moldings Exclusive suspension Exclusive emblem Exclusive tires (Potenza RE-01R) Front: 245/40R18 tires Rear: 275/35R19 tires Exclusive seats Exclusive door trim Exclusive genuine leather-wrapped seering wheel and parking brake level Exclusive Rays Exclusive genuine leather-wrapped shift knob forged aluminum wheels Exclusive higher stiffness body Exclusive Yamaha Performance Dampers Exclusive seatbelts (Gray) So its an 07 model with all the bits above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 its a completely different car from the normal Z. its a bargain at the price that he is willing to sell at and very very rare....the only fault of that car if at all it is a fault...is that the rear bumper is not of generally acceptable styling.... Ohh and I think its an auto as well....but then that just makes it more easier to live with in the city on the commuting circuit. wish I had the cash....it is a beast and who ever buys it is goin to be grinning for long time!!!
