so you get the nismo seats, the authentication, nismo badges, wheels, bumpers sides and spoiler. with an h pipe instead of y and a red cover and +18 hp

on a track the nismo fails to improve track times and a few times it's slower by 0.1 seconds on the 0-30/60/75/100 and also the 1/4 mile

the suspension is done up a lot better

the car is worth getting for probably: showing off, fact that it is a nismo, and for an enthusiast
but not worth if you want a car to mod since you can just mod the non-nismos

the only thing you get out of the car is that it is the nismo trim

its like buying a touring instead of base, just for the features (thats how i'd put it)
but instead of "intelligent" features you get "physical features" with a tad of better handling

the performance part wont make much of a difference since it is heavier


-back to your question: is it worth it?
i would say it is worth as much as its worth buying a 370 that's base or touring or with sport for their prices. it's just a different trim like the roadster.
so i'm not saying yes or no, it is what it is, buy it if you like pass if not.

i like the stock body look so i will be buying a non-nismo myself

hope this helps
