Wha? It's called saving your money for something worthwhile.
Why did you buy a g35? You could have bought an 87' Corolla and saved yourself some serious cash.

This is typical of the items sold on eBay. I believe one of our members already made a thread like, "What do you think?" in reference to those headlights. Good or bad you can find it on eBay....

You know with all the cheap, sh!tty parts for the G35 it makes it easy for young owners to rice out the car. For me though, like the MB commercials: The best or nothing. Right now, i cant afford a MD TDX 2 exhaust like I want, but I refuse to associate cheap parts with this car. Its ridiculous what some kids install just to say ” I have an exhaust.”

It's ridiculous how some people say to install extremely expensive parts that do little more and in a few cases less for performance than the very expensive, "quality", name brand part does. It isn't nearly as black and white as you think.

Both good points. You have to know that price (high or low) does not increase/decrease good taste. You can spend alot of money making your car slow and ugly (24' rims anyone?).

No offense dude, but an exhaust is one of the most basic parts there is. It's larger diameter tubing, and/or a more direct route combined with a free-er flowing muffler. To spend a butt-load of money on an exhaust system is ridiculous...you're paying for nothing more than the name. Theoretically, any competant muffler shop should be able to put together an aftermarket exhaust system that performs as good if not better than any manufactured system...and probably for about 1/4 the price. If you want to spend $1500 on an exhaust system that gains 5hp...by all means, go for it. Best is not always most expensive though.
