Basically, the 2015 Sport Tech is about $3,300 less than a 2014 Touring/Sport. The 2015 Sport Tech lacks the power heated leather seats, upgraded door trim, cargo cover, and aluminum pedals of the 2014 Touring/Sport, but I believe it has everything else. This may be a great tradeoff for those who want the upgraded audio system and navigation (which were heretofore unavailable at this price point and trim level) but can live without those other items.

It really comes down to the dealer. I am looking to get aggressive on my 14s, and just move on to the 15s. Nissan probably won't give us much more in the way of incentives, so break even now or lose money later is the way I look at them. Also, I want to make room to carry more 15s, rather than trying to juggle both. We try to maintain a 10-15 Z inventory through the spring and summer, many other dealers carry a handful at most.
Many other dealers may not even know the difference or availability of 2015 Zs, so they won't look at it the same way as dealers that are active in the community
