I chose the 370z nismo because I liked how it looked. However, I gave up a lot of things I could have had in a 370z for that look. The 2013 Nismo seems better equipped than the 2010 that I had, so maybe it would not be so bad. Good luck with your decision.

Personally, if you were to keep the car 100% stock, and/or you DIE for the Nismo body kit, get it... If not, don't, don't even think about it, that 18HP "upgrade" is offset by the extra weight.
To me, and I think many agree, the Nismo is just a base+sport with body kit and the tinsel of "go faster" added.


I have a Sport Touring, and I'm happy I do. A LOT of people complain about the base seats and while the seat heaters add weight the leather makes just a sports car into a sport "luxury" car
How much for a replica? Ive looked into amuse which is the one i prefer. Its just really high.

I guess like in a post earlier its the 'exclusivity factor' as long as i can get a good deal on the nismo.

I paid $42K for my Nismo. When a loaded touring can run you more than a Nismo.

Lot's of great advise. Here's my take.

Nismo is exclusive. Nice body kit. No need to change it. If you plan to change a bunch of things go for the Sport. If you don't care about the essence of either the Nismo or a Sport, go for the base to give you more mod money headroom.
