2014 or 2015 same cost which one!?

Figtuna

Comparing the 2014 and 2015 is like night and day. I transitioned from a manual transmission to the automatic with the 7-speed and paddle shifters. I was reluctant to do so because I've always enjoyed shifting but now I'm glad I did.

The front facia has an aggressive look to it now compared to the 2014 front bumper....certainly "announces" your presence in the rear-view of the guy in front of you! LoL The red paint accents give the car more curb-appeal to as do the redesigned rocker panels and the new rear spoiler. I had a 2010 NIsmo with the whale tail and it didn't seem to "flow" with the design of the car overall but I could live with it.

The Recaro seats are so good, I don't shift around during aggressive driving thru the twists at all!

My white 2015 Nismo is equipped with the tech package which is an added bonus. The Bose system with 2 subwoffers can crank out some serious music and at loud volumes the speakers don't get over-powered/distorted. The fit & trim of the interior is so good that nothing buzzes other than the radar sector cord! The GPS & map finder works exceptionally well as do ALL the other features of the tech package...certainly worth the extra expense. The Homelink mirror is nice because I don't need to have an ugly garage door opener on the sun visor that keeps popping off onto the floor board.

Odd thing is that with my 2010 Nismo, I had to replace the stock stereo system (I also replaced the rear view mirror with a Homelink unit) because at the higher volume levels which were needed to cover the drone of the road noise...the car was very loud, especially when the tires needed replacement. I spent nearly as much to upgrade that 2010 Nismo (totaling over $44,000 with the cost of the car and the upgrades) as I did for my new 2015 ($45,800) but with factory installed options, automatic, aerodynamic upgrades, new sound deadening materials, new styling features, and Recaro seats!

In my book...it was a no-brainer!

Just my 2 cents

As promised CoralZ, I'm happy with her One thing I don't understand is why they put two speaker spots behind the seats and no sound comes out same with my old 2013? I don't have the tech pack of course or bose but it seems kind of pointless to have speaker spots with no speakers lol

She looks awesome Nef. I really like the black too.

It's funny you mention the speakers. Can you post a pic of them. When I first test drove the car at one dealer and left, later on me and my wife swore we saw two speakers in between the seats. That car had the tech package. I ended up getting the same car from a different dealer but it didn't have those two speakers. My wife and I thought we were nuts. I searched the Internet and Nissans website but could find no info or pics about them so I chalked it up to remembering it wrong.

Crazy though. I may have to contact Nissan about it.

You're talking about the bose package I believe and yes I've seen picks of them between the seats behind you. But what I'm referring to you can actually see in picture 2 right behind the passenger seat and in front of the brace there is a round speaker sport like a tweeter size slot on both sides but no noise comes out so I'm assuming there is no speakers there... I also noticed them in the 2013 when I was making sure it was clean and everything was removed last night I didn't even know they were there. I don't know if this is intentional? I'm just confused because I was told any aftermarket speakers voids the warranty. What if there is no speakers there though lol If you try and fade to the back no noise. On the 2013 if I faded to the back just my tweeters on the dash would work. I'm just confused as to what is going on? Is it a six speaker setup or a four and if it is a four why have speaker slots with no speakers?

It's for the Bose package. They didn't make two panels. One for non Bose and one with. Plus for those not wanting Bose but want to upgrade their sound system can do so.

Ya thanks for the reply I read it last night under the audio section. I might eventually run speakers to there. I wouldn't want bose anyway too resticted and pricey vs aftermarket quality and price
