Completely agree, you also have to compare the G to a car in its class, like the genesis coupe... Or compare the Tc to something in its class, like a civic or colbalt...

How about this.

A VQ35DE valve cover for a Nissan Maxima is $35-50.

A VQ35DE valve cover for the G35 or 350z is $170.

Both plastic. Explain.

because its the American way........why is there Nissan then Infiniti, Toyota then Lexus, and Honda then Acura. Overseas there is no added branding for luxury, you either can afford it or not.

The more expensive the car is, the more expensive the part is. Try look at a carbon hood for a r35 when it takes the same amount of material to make any other carbon hood

Let me throw a rock in the mix,

the G is 98% interchangeable with the Z.
The Z is a very modded car, but even if it was half, and u take that plus the g's you have a lot of modded cars and mods being done...

so if you take that in to fact shouldnt our prices be cheaper then?

That means G's wont really be riced out as much because it costs wayyy to much to just throw money into crappy parts. So we buy quality parts and put time into our cars because the price. Im not arguing the fact that we pay more. We always will. And to Meister, the Genesis V6 Single Turbo kit is a little over half the price of a Turbonetics ST for the VQ35
MAN I wish there was a "LIKE" button like on facebook! hahaha. ROASTED on CIVICS and INTEGRAS!! haaha.!
