“I hate 350Z”<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Quite the interesting vanity plate on an Infiniti G35 coupe.\u00a0 Y’see, the Infiniti G35 coupe and the Nissan 350Z are essentially, the exact same car.\u00a0 Strip the body panels, and all the superficial seating, and accessories, down to the naked body, skeleton, and heart, and you’ve got an identical chassis and motor.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I admit there is a little bit of cherry picking involved in these statistics, but come on, chassis, engine, power – these are some pretty key components to an automobile. The point remains that aside from the body panels and car’s design, which are kind of similar in shape, the two cars are the same thing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why the driver of this G35 hates 350Zs is completely beyond me.<\/span><\/p>\n
