GTR badge

I remember when the gtr badge was "cool" to have. it wasn't as easy to get on the east coast at one time. now its available for like 9.99 at pepboys. well anyway, remember when the r33 and r34 gtr were talked about alot and evevryone wanted a piece of that car, lights, brakes, wings, body kits, etc., and still some delite in styling their maximas after it. well i still think the gtr badge is bad a$$.
we have a nissan/ subaru dealer-ship here nearby, i had visited recently to look at the new impreza. i was showing the car to a couple with a i30. anyway, a salesman had come out to look at the car and says, "finally i get to see a gtr maxima." he told me people had come to buy them. and asked for them by name "Maxima gtr." man, i was thinking that when people see my car (or any other maxima w/ a gtr badge), some people actually think they can just buy one of these maxima gtr, w/ all the mods and seit. i busted up laughing. but actually it kinda made me feel pretty good , to think that some one actually would go to a nissan dealership and ask to see a maxima gtr. and all the saleman dont know what the freek they are talking about. that was funny. long live the gtr badge. its something to be proud of, even if you dont like it on your maxima.

I feel you man- and if it makes you that happy, then I don't think anyone should say that it's 'rice' or whatever.

that's hilarious...nice job creating your own model and making a fool of the salesmen...

we should start using badges from maxima models from other countries so people go out looking for them. yes, now that would be fun.

I say you like it, keep it, atleast you dont have a Type-S badge on your car

I think being bone stock aith a GTR badge would be too much, but modded like you it fits.

personally I dont think I'd do it, but then again I'm a guy who has taken off all badging

aint nothin wrong with a lil GTR Maxima :0

People love to steal those badge. Doesn't matter if it's Type-S, GTR, red H, green H...etc. My brother got his red H stolen from front of his Civic and they did a great job. Took some paint off with the emblem. I rather not deal with it.
