Fairlady Z33

Followed a nice black fairlady 350Z today, looked pretty standard issue car. Is this a normal US option? Or just a re-badging kit. It was a left hand drive. Had blacked out lens on the tail lights, but that's nothing unusual.

If it was LHD, then they probably bought the Fairlady badge from ebay.

What makes a 350z a fairlady Z or a Z33? - Yahoo! Answers

And if you read Japanese (I don't):

Some japanese

Spent a year in Okinawa, driving Right handers in the left lane. It will screw you up on the wrong side of the road, I would go around a corner and find myself in oncoming traffic, hard to stay on the left. I speak some, but that's some internet munbo jumbo script representing Kanji probably. I figured the car had ebay badges. Cars over there rust out really fast, all the salt air. To get a registration, a car basically has to be in new condition. Any issues, rust holes, mechanical, etc, has to be fixed or it will get junked. I think that's probably why there are so many JDM engines out there. It's just to expensive to fix every car after 4 years of use, so they scrap them and buy new.
