QFT: I've seen some modded cars that I like, but for me leaving my G37x coupe stock is perfectly fine. The only thing I MIGHT change would beene going to a black grill instead of chrome. But maybe not, I want to see if a new generation comes out in 2012, and if so if I like it more, then go from there. Maybe I'm too frugal/cheap, but I can't see modding a car (even if I was so inclined) that I might be trading in 2 or 3 years from now if I like the next generation of G's.

I have to agree with some of the other replies. Your Z looked better with the other wheels and the wing has to go.

YOU didn't have to ask for opinions. Your brother is the one who asked for them...


Either way any time pictures of a car go up obviously people are going to give their opinion

I give you credit. Granted, you did create an account to "defend" something of which you're really proud, which, in some ways, contradicts your statement that you don't care about anyone else's opinions, but I think you have handled the criticism better than some might.

To be honest, I have been following this thread simply because of how foolish it seems - a kid (I'm assuming the OP is relatively young) wanting to modify his car to "keep up" with his brother's car. Pretty ridiculous, if you ask me, but it's certainly entertaining . But, really, when you modify your car from stock, you open yourself up to insult and affront. That insolence only becomes magnified when pictures are posted on the internet. I think you just have to remain in-touch with reality and realize that some people will love your car and some will hate it. Then some will just comment negatively because they can...

Although your car is not exactly my taste, I applaud you on your efforts and can respect the time, money, and energy that went into it. Anyone who knows cars, will give a Z (or a G) with authentic Volk's a second look...

Seconded, It's pretty obvious Volks are a better fit with the cars look unless you wear dress shoes on a marathon.

Well said. Also this is a g37 forum lol so probably not the best place for a z even though there are z's on here the majority is obviously ppl who love the g. This is a pretty good forum though some good feedback on here. I also agree with the fact that my brother doesnt need mods other maybe lowering or maybe a lip kit and tints. I guess he wants black wheels too but i liek the stock wheels.

^ That's not true, I admire a nicely modded Z and so do most on the people here, most of which came from Z's anyways.

Most of us are on the Z forums as well, I don't know why you keep assuming people are always "hating", this isn't a BMW forum man haha

Cool

I have a tinted out white 09 g37s dropped on eibachs with vossen 082s and i get compliments all the time/ catch people staring in traffic etc

Plus I think our cars (which are already naturally pure sex) when modded right like mine look sooooo sexy and much better than some 100k cars out there on the road.

Ill post pics of my ride today just waxed her!!

That's a stretch, and I'll give you some cars, like the 7 series BMW, but there is no coupe over 100k that doesn't look better than a G37 lol

I posted the pictures to make a clear distinction from what was in tokyo drift because apparently that cars pictures were being posted and to me that wasnt the direction i was goin with.
