For my it was I wanted the slightly modded and knew I was going to upgrade parts anyway. I probably could have got away with a base but at least the brakes and wheels and diff were worth it. My 2cents.

Body kits aren't that expensive if you get a Replica or like a Stillen front
Personally, if you were to keep the car 100% stock, and/or you DIE for the Nismo body kit, get it... If not, don't, don't even think about it, that 18HP "upgrade" is offset by the extra weight.
To me, and I think many agree, the Nismo is just a base+sport with body kit and the tinsel of "go faster" added.
I have a Sport Touring, and I'm happy I do. A LOT of people complain about the base seats and while the seat heaters add weight the leather makes just a sports car into a sport "luxury" car
