I yet have to familiarise myself with the uses for "nari". Let's see
if I have it nailed down so far...
"Sonna kuruma nari ni hayai da yo." ("As would be expected of this
kind of car, it is fast indeed.")
"Asa ga kuru nari kimi wa machi kara deta kedo." ("No sooner did
morning come than you left town.")

Seems to me that the use of "nari" herein is just like my sentence
above; namely the idea of a quality being typical of something.
