Any Nismo Owners Wish They Bought the Base with Sport Package Instead?

RedNismoZ · 10-06-2012, 06:36 PM

I kinda wished I gotten the base and added everything myself. I don't like the rear.

I had a 2010 touring/sport and now a 2013 Nismo and I should have bought the Nismo in 2010.

I Love mine! My only complaint is having to make a new huge car payment for six years

The rear of the Nismo is one of the best parts about the car.

My only complaint about the NISMO is that I couldn't get yellow in 2009. One of my new goals is to get repainted (complete teardown) in either Chicane Yellow or Midnight Blue.

If I had to make the choice again, I would still go with the NISMO!

Yeah, the diffuser and the additional width behind the wheels makes the back of the car look really sharp and sporty. Plus it matches the style of the front-end/splitter perfectly.

my only complaint are the fake slits/vents in the rear...... silly nissan

I bet those are functional mini side spoilers

To be totally honest if Nissan didnt offer the Nismo package I never would have bought a Z. When I went to purchase my car I looked on ebay (because my best friend owned a 1978 Z, and knew that the new ones kinda had a retro look kinda what the camaro's and mustang's are trying to do) and when I saw the Nismo version I thought to myself " now thats not something you see everyday"
