Are they available or no ?
Hey guys, this is my first post on this forum. I own a mazda rx8 at the moment but looking to get a 370z nismo in the summer. Ive been searching a bit and i found out that the 370z nismo isnt an available option here in canada. I also heard rumours they will start selling nismos in canada in 2012. So whats the truth ?? or am i going to have to import one from the states ??
Sorry for the long first post. I look forward to joining the Z community soon. thanks |

I have seen coupe of Nismo that some dealer may carry.At this time, I guess there is none. Some of them were imported from states. They might be avaliable for the used one. If not, I guess is not the time of season

thanks for the info. This brings up another issue. If they were imported from the states ... wouldnt their gauges be MPH instead of KPH. Im assuming you would have to get a canadian gauge cluster from Nissan and then replace it ..??

Nismos were made available in Canada for the first time for the 2011 model year.

I guess theyre still rare. I havent seen ONE nismo 370z on the road yet. To be honest i dont see alot of 370zs on the road period. I have seen a PW a few weeks ago and thats the only one ive ever seen.
Any PW nismos in toronto ??? |

Yup Definteily rare. I've seen a black one and a white one in Montreal.
I'm pretty sure they weren't available at deals here and they may have shipped them in from out West, I could be wrong. But you can get one if you do the work it appears...worth it for the rareness!

haha yea. Im obsessed with the nismo. Always day dreaming about it. Thats the first thing i think of when i freakin wake up and it brings a smile to my face. THats the way i was about my rx8 lol. Im really looking forward to getting one.
Im kinda worried the z will be a let down over the 8, which is a fun car to drive. We'll see. |

You won't be let down IMO. I have been in a friends base rx8 as was not impressed with the interior or the drive. Z ftw!
