In a perfect world, I'd want the looks of the Nismo (yes, the looks) and the creature comforts of the Touring, but that's not a car Nissan makes. Overall, performance between the Nismo and non-Nismo are mildly negligable.

I eventually found a private seller with a 2011 Nismo with 1,700 miles on it, floor mats, lighted kicks, trunk mat, locking lugs, and the cargo cover from the Touring.


He wanted $33k, I was all in. Got it last September and don't reget anything about it.

Gotta love Ebay.
Wow what a steal!! lucky you!!
