Yes but our people are waiting on the official specs of the next IPL. If they say that its going to have 500 HP for like $80k price tag, than why buy a IPL when you can get a GT-R???? Now if the price range was around 50k like the current IPL. I would buy it right now. Trade in my G and say screw my s5 I pre-ordered. I believe there are A LOT of people on the forums who would spend 50K on a IPL if the performance and price tag were right.

I don't know, I feel I may be done with Nissan. I owned nothing but Nissans all my life and my next car will be BMW or Audi.
My first car was 1998 Max SE then 2001 Max SE 6MT, Then 2005 Altima SER, then 2006 350z, then 2008 350z NISMO, from that to 2010 370z then to 2011 G37.

This is an EPIC thread!
First we have one mans opinion, which hes entitled to...whether hes right or wrong.
Then we have the waves of defense brought on by our fellow forum members.
Followed by a call to close the thread...LMAO
One member actually bought AERO parts thanks to OPs post, BUT didnt buy all of them....which OP may disagree with
Then plasti dip somehow gets brought up...NOT winning
And finally the discussion has graduated to the next IPL that is coming out and what the specs are or price may be...
5 STARS!!!
Waaay too dramatic. l doubt he intended that at all. lol

The whole thread I thought he was saying how everyone that bought an IPL kit and put it on their non-IPL was "ghetto," because they cant afford to buy an actual IPL like him.
I guess i was misinterpreted something, my apologies.

This thread is humorous to me for a few different reasons...
OP, I am not hopping on the band wagon of people ripping you. I can actually see from where you're coming with some of your points. I don't know if I necessarily agree with all your sentiments (or how you have laid them on the table), but, unfortunately, the issues you disagree with are the reality of modifying cars.
It does appear as though your opinion of this has changed since you created this thread, though. No? In that thread are you not inquiring about exactly what you express a profound displeasure with here?
And you mention in that thread buying, as an alternative, a "TS lip." Just out of curiosity, would you have purchased an authentic Top Secret lip or would you buy a cheap replica version of it as many others on here seem to do? I only ask because I feel like the argument could certainly be made by those members who have chosen to buy authentic parts that seeing "everyone and their grandmother" as you put it, faking the funk and cheaping out on parts might rub them the wrong way, too...
Just my $.02.
As a sidenote, I respect the fact that the OP has taken all this criticism like a good sport. Unless I have missed something, I don't think he has become hostile or rude in any of his responses to some of the heat he has endured.

I also took it is I bought an IPL which is a way better car than you but in fact and reality is that we have the same engine under the hood. Now if I wanted to be an azz about it I could of said OP my SC or TT G37S would make your IPL G look stupid and guess what I saved 10k doing it.
Also, there is a better way of what he could of asked the question but bashing on other people and calling them ghetto when all he has is a wanna be G37S on fake steriods . If you get my drift hahaha.

Well like you I understand the OP's concern. It's just the fact of how he put. Kinda like how I can say girls do not know about cars. Which is a false statement. To be more clear I should of said Not all girls know about cars.

And I agree with you that he certainly could have expressed himself a little differently so as not to **** off so many people. (But then this thread wouldn't have so many views and replies. )

I apologize, man. I hope you don't think my post was directed at you. My only point was that I feel like the OP is getting blasted and he is handling it far better than a lot of people would. I respect him for that. That's all.
