New solid red 2015 Z Nismo Owner!

StevenShocker · 02-07-2015, 11:59 PM

Hey guys,

I finally picked up this 2015 solid red nismo Z! It's the tech version so it's fully loaded. I'm very excited to move forward in this ongoing project. I've come from a long way from one car to another. I have a lot planned, but for now.. Here's one shot I could get until tomorrow when the suns out. I will post plenty of pictures! Oh yeah! IT'S A SIX SPEED! Took forever to find a six speed.

Thanks everyone! I've already placed orders on weathertech floormats and a GTR start/Stop button

I'm currently looking for a hebi bebi shift knob if anyone knows of one for sale!

It sort of saddens me that all of the red stuff that's unique to the Nismo trim this year (the red letter 'O' in the Nismo badge, the fascia and side sill accents, etc.) is hard to see against that particular color

In other trims, Nissan offers Magma Red, which I kind of think would have been a more appropriate color to offer for Nismo if the bodykit is going to employ red so heavily. Maybe Nissan was trying to offer one particular color combination where the flashy Nismo stuff doesn't make the car stick out?

Congratulations on finding a 6MT Tech. That is crazy hard to do; I held out on purchasing my 7AT Tech until the dealer had a (less equipped) 6MT Nismo on the lot that I could compare it to. I thought I was going to hate the paddles over a proper manual gear box, but I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know if Nissan simply produced fewer 6MT Nismos this year since they introduced the 7AT or if the demand for the 6MT is so high that the only thing available is 7AT?

There are four to five 6 speeds here that I've seen. Only 2 autos.

Congrats! I got the same car at that dealership last month but 7AT.

Congrats and beautiful Nismo you have there!

Nismos? Most dealers don't have more than 2 or 3 Nismos if any. And I'm limiting the discussion to 2015 models. Of course any residual 2014 is going to be 6MT.
