Also through the years Ive learned (depending on the make/model) the money spent on low hp yielding bolt ons and different aesthetics is somewhat a waste and takes away money from my true goal of making some real power. For the Z cars, most bolt ons and body mods simply fail my cost benefit analysis.
The Nismo helps in that regard as I'm satisfied with its body/wheels and wouldnt feel the need to sink thousands on mods/paint/labor that could've went towards boost or boost supporting mods/built motor etc.
Out the box I can be content with the Nismo and take all that money I would've spent to "un-plain jane" the base+sport and put it towards mods that make a TRUE difference to the car.
Do I love Amuse? Yes. Do I love all the different cool expensive rims? Yes. Do I love the thought of more quickly having the money for a built boosted vehicle more? HELL YEAH
Plus I might say screw more mods all together and spend any extra money on a Ducati or KTM RC8 lol

I understand I guess I just looked at it as it doesn't feel like a 350 HP car and you're basically paying for an over priced body kit in which I do like. Then the lack of options pre 2015. I love my touring package+ nav. I've never been into body kits more just strictly perforformance. When I was looking at nismos they had used Z06's, M6, for the same price. But hey thank goodness for options as I'm happy you're happy with your purchase and the support of the Z.
