Not true at all. I wanted all the luxuary features with amenities just like the one straight from Japan. If you do a search on the JDM Nismo 370z, they even have a front 180 camera as an option.




I just decided to convert a Fully loaded Sport/Touring/Nav one to Nismo rather than to spend my first 3 years driving in a bare minimal standard features as my daily driver.

I've actually researched a lot to see what separated the Nismo trim from all the other Base/Sport Models and how much I would have to spend in both situations, created BOM of parts I need to order, etc.

Turns out most of the Performance related stuff even if I have gotten a NISMO 370z, I would have thrown most those things out and have upgraded it. (I.E. Suspension -> KW V3, Sways -> Whiteline, Exhaust, etc, etc)

Back in 2008 when I first saw the 370z in the car show room floor. I fell in love with the Alcantara/Leather seats with the integrated Climate Control to the nav. I'm not trying to talk down about the Nismo but the Nismo they sold here lacked all of those features.
