The ones that actually attend events. it appears to be an anniversary model, and if i were on the prowl for a 300z aniversary item, id rather buy one with less than perfect ORIGINAL paint, than perfect NEW paint. atleast hes not trying to hide past accidents or other damage with new paint. ---

As soon as you modify a car, any car, originality goes out the door. It is apparent that he has modified it. Therefore IMO, spend the money on a paint job before putting $$$ into mods. Sorry but I see way to many idiots(mostly PR) driving $1000 cars with $4000 rims from rent-a-rim. ---

if i were out shopping for a car, id much rather buy a car with original paint with a few imprefections than a car with “fresh paint” because with the old paint you cant tell if its been painted in areas, and if/where body work is hidden, with new paint flaws are all covered, as are shady repairs from previous incidents. not saying all resprays are that way, but i personally am a huge fan of original paint. ---

That’s fine. But that car dosnet have average or even decent paint. The front bumper is fucked, it has flaked paint on both rocker panels, it has multiple dents on both sides, some large, some small. That car is not a collectors item or anything else. So all I am saying is fix that shit before $$$$$ in rims/tires/suspension. ---
