what do you think ?

I drove a Nismo a few months back. After driving it and a Roadster, it wasn't really what I expected. . .

I'd say it was intimidating, brutal, and serious.

I stalled about 4 times during the drive, couldn't see out the back, and thought the midrange power was intoxicating.

Is this car designed more for track and high speed driving ?

In comparison, the Roadster was more laid-back and smooth. I definitely felt the lower horsepower, but the torque curve seemed more linear.

For those of you who bought the Nismo. . .
Was it hard to drive at first ?

If I was to spend forty thousand $ on a car, i would want it to be pretty special. The 370z Nismo is one awesome car. The fact that it was intimidating makes me want to drive it some more. It seems like the car would teach me to drive better.

Are these first impressions normal ? what do you think ?
