Spotted a silver v35 coupe on the corner of logan & padstow road this afternoon. I was in the wifes white 300gt sedan.

Might have been me.... was running around fixing a friend's pc. Was it 1-2 or later I was out that way twice.

Personalised plates matching the car's colour? (don't post the details)

Yep was probably me. I was in the lane to turn right onto Padstow.... Did a u-turn though. Note to self... turn off VDC before snapping into second, it stops the "No you don't" light.

Sorry mate I usually have a keen eye out for v35's. Was showing off as it was his first time in one. I am trying to convert him from the ways of the "dunny door". :thumbsup: Now that I know you are in the area I'll look out for you. Would have spotted the blue one in your sig for sure.

That might be the one i've been spotting over the past few months, I normally spotted him on Dudley, most likely just after he got off Footscray Rd... dun think he is even on this forum...

I saw a silver coupe today on the princess hwy around 4-5pm heading towards sutherland coming from the w'gong area . It looked standard , wheels , etc . I was wondering why all the back quarter windows are very dark tint and the front windows have no tint. Why dont people tint the front windows to match the back or go as legal as you can go all around. To me it looks like people started tinting the windows and ran out of money !

Thats called the factory privacy glass which is tinted in Japan and found on most imports nowadays.

It is indeed the factory privacy glass. Come standard in most mid-upper levell Japanese built cars.

We have that factory privacy glass on our RAV4 Cruiser (they're not installed on the basic CV, only on Cruiser and Cruiser-L with leather),

and of course on the V35 350GT premium.

In Japan it is illegal to tint the front windows even the slightest tint is illegal,

and therefore the privacy glass is only applied to the rear windows and windscreen.

You don't see them on locally built Toyotas like Camry or Aurion of course... because Australia don't have such rule.

Not my car, but thats the way thats the factory did it in Japan. Mine arrived like that also, but then i tinted the front ones. Heaps of Jap (and I am sure others too) cars have rear windows really tinted as standard, while front ones not so. Safety reasons I guess.
