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

USMCram · 09-30-2012, 07:30 PM

Only thing that I would have liked was blue tooth on my stereo.

I imagine the base Z being more docile in terms of suspension stiffness. Probably more civilized on long road trips but to heck with it. Having stiff suspension makes you feel like you are in a race car. lol

Agreed. That's one reason why I bailed on Bose and decided to get an aftermarket stereo.

The 2013 Nismos come with the Bose sound system I think.

I haven't bought mine yet. Looking at a 2010. #156. But this, and the bumper paint issue, makes me reconsider the E46 M3. Just sayin'. Lol

Mine is a 2013. No Bose.

That's weird. I thought I read that when they made the announcement on the 2013 models.

The Bose is an option

I would stick with my Nismo any day of the week over the base 370Z. If you want leather seats in your Nismo, then go somewhere to get aftermarket leather installed.

forza370z · 10-06-2012, 03:59 AM

^^ True. And I could care less about the leather seats. Slippery after the detail thus not safe for a sports car.

BeemaaZ · 10-06-2012, 09:44 AM

^^ It shouldn't be slippery after detailing if the right products were used such as Leatherique http://www.leatherique.com/do_it_you...irections.html

I like the non-NISMO Zs a lot, but the splitter, side skirts and wing are absolutely perfect aesthetically speaking. The NISMO wheels can't be beat. I am very happy with my decision.

864Zbeast · 10-06-2012, 12:15 PM

I love the look of nismo but the interior and seats suck compared to my touring/sport. I wasn't pleased with nismo interior or rear bumper. Love the front and stock wheels though.

MacLean · 10-06-2012, 06:05 PM

The Nismo is just 110% sexier than the base without a question. Also the Nismo equals pure sex too.
