Also it's not apples and oranges. It's the same car; Nismo just nissan upgrades for 12k more when you can do it all yourself for about 7-8k depending on what you want. |
Comparing the price you paid for a USED 370Z to the price for a NEW Nismo 370Z is comparing apples to oranges. Unless I'm missing something and you got a Touring with Nav for 27k which is 3k below MSRP for the BASE model. Even if you did only pay that new, you're still comparing what you paid to the sticker price of the Nismo. I could compare what I paid for my Nismo to the sticker price for your car new and come out on top too.
I also fail to see how buying a Nismo prevents you from personalizing the car.
If you don't like the body kit, or the rims, or whatever that's fine. But just because you don't like them doesn't mean they're worth nothing. Don't like the exhaust, sell the stock Nismo exhaust. Don't like the rims, sell the rims and buy new ones. Don't like the suspension, you can sell that too and so on. You could also sell the wing, but I don't know why you'd want to. I just think the market for regular stock parts isn't as good.
