GT-R Manual Warns: No Bad Taste
More Skyline importing news: our friends at Cobb Tuning have received one of the first privately owned R35 GT-Rs in the US. How? By importing their own, of course, and you know what that means: comical scans from the Japanese owner’s manual! This one is our fave. Apparently, it’s warning the owner not to uglify their new purchase with “aero” modifications like a giant spoiler or widebody kit. Take note, Kev (j/k, j/k)! To see more of the GT-R - and more scans - check out the Cobb Blog.
UPDATE: Autoblog picked up on this story and now the image is on a T-shirt. Such is the life of an internet meme.

If they want to strip the GT-R of “bad taste”, how about removing the incredibly tacky GT-R badge plastered on the front grill? Looks like a 10th grader bought it at Pep Boys™ and glued it on.
