To revise my earlier post, I was talking about the OP's picture he linked not the others.

I like the last one but without the time attack motif.

DC isn't that bad...I used to go to the worst parts of DC when I had my 19's on with a 2.5" drop

^ heh... if you look @ the profile of the black G37 (posted by loseit), the wheels don't look good on the car, they look too small.

Although the black one isnt pimp out like synth post, i believe it looks better. I can see what synth means about 19" being small when looking from the side. Still looks awesome though!

I think I know what you mean tho - for some reason, I've noticed (for a while) that wheels look small on 350Z/G35 - like 19"s don't look like 19"s... I think it's something to do with the geometry and proportions of the car.

It's not that they're too small. They're just not good looking wheels. Period.

i think I still like the first one better. A little ricey yes, and probably could use some tint or something to hide those bright red seats. but bbk's always make me , and i've never been a fan of black wheels.

I like the wheels and the exhaust on the grey one. The brakes and seats dont seem necessary. The drop is too low too, but it might just be for the pictures...

Not sure, but he's an employee of Mackin/sponsored. He's literally gone through at least 10-15 SETS of volks in the past 4 years or so on the Z. He'll have some new wheels in a couple of weeks!

If this was a ricer, s/he would have the G37S / Infiniti removed and Skyline put in its place.

Nice looking ride, but I think about an inch too low.

I drove a G37S 6 speed the other day, The short throws were nice, but the shifter vibrates so badly, a chick could ride it and get an orgasm in seconds...Supposedly the '08's were revised and have less vibration than the '07's (a lot of complaints I heard), I can only imagine how bad the '07 was...The clutch was a bit too hard for my tastes, but I guess different strokes for different folks..The customer I got it for was getting out of an '06 G35 coupe 6 speed and absolutely loves his new ride. I didn't drive it for a long time, but I will say it's quite fast, but the rest of the drive didn't do much else for me..

I think the g37 is a very sexy looking car. It looks better than the 335, IMO. The problem is that it is a fat pig and the interior isn't of the same quality (materials) as it 's competition.
That is sick!

the G37 I saw was also being driven by a female... hmm. I wonder if they are appealing more to females, due to their curvy feminine appearance.

that's cobb tuning's headlights, IIRC

smoked headlights to give a chrome black look with a carbon fiber piece in place of the amber
