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"

Yeah Nismo is a bit of a waste. Once I replaced the sport brakes, replaced Nismo shocks and springs, replaced Nismo wheels, replaced Nismo sway bars, replaced Nismo seats, replaced Nismo steering wheel, replaced Nismo shifter , removed chassis dampers I really started to enjoy the car. Lol!

Great thing is I was able to sell all that stuff for thousands.

I wouldn't be upset with either option. They both have their advantages to me.

I went in looking for either a Nismo in Black or Red or a Sport Touring in Blue with Persimmon interior.

Sometimes i do wish i had bose/nav/heated persimmon seats. I was looking for a white sport touring nav persimmon, if it hadnt sold before i bought it i would have ended up with one.

You could have ordered one and waited for a few months.

I was looking for a used one, new would have been a bit too expensive at 40k. Im happy with the nismo i always liked it more but thought it might be "a bit much" but im glad i went with it
