i might actually leave the suspension alone; i live near the city so there's lots of potholes/bumps/generally shitty roads. i had springs on my last car, but it didn't sit as nicely stock as the 370 does. i definitely like the nismo body and interior though.

Okay if you do love the exclusive Nismo look, then you should get a Nismo. And I am sure the Nismo exhaust, wheels will be a hot sale here if you are not planning to put them back on later. But you probably should take your time now search on the net to find a good deal. Coz there aren't many out there.

For that same 10k if you buy a base model, you can invest that into modding, and come out with a higher performing car, with the same kit purchased aftermarket, for less than buying a Nismo outright.

That statement might be right for buying a new one. But he said he is looking for a slightly used one. So there won't be $10k difference(far less than that). Plus, if he really likes the Nismo kit, there is NOTHING better then the factory bodykit out of the box. EVERY aftermarket kit will have flaws here and there if you've been there before. And some of them will make you really frustrating and end up spending more money and time.
