I'm thinking this is an okay move by Nissan. It lets them milk off the new body kit for another year to help offset whatever R&D costs it took to develop it. It also gives them another year to refine the next generation Z and see what else the competition is bringing to the table for 2017.
In addition people who bought the new 2015 will be driving them around, which might lure in a few people who fall in love with the new look and are willing to pay the extra cost for it. Another year lets them sell to those individuals.
Last but not least: another year of production lets Nissan produce more of the body kit components for future sales (i.e. repairs/restoring/conversions/etc). Once the new Z goes on sale, they'll probably stop manufacturing 2015 parts entirely... so maybe they're stockpiling whatever amount they consider reasonable for such support.
