I wanted the touring and nav. If the Nismo had a touring and nav option, I would have gone that way. If we're going to compare new cars to used cars then we might as well compare the Nismo to a used Z06 or Viper at that point since they're in the same price range.
I do not even want to know what a Nismo with Touring and Nav would sticker for. That would be one of my complaints about the Nismo and Z in general... WTF does the Nismo Juke have nicer seats?!?!?

Nissan really should start making Blue Nismos.
I'm a big fan of the new Midnight Blue.... Midnight Blue Nismo..... mmmmm

I'm glad the Nismo doesn't come with leather seats. Thats just more weight to an already over weight car. And Nav? That is what my Tom Tom is for. Good enough, lol

Yah, what you all said and if you want to call all 370s apples, just like apples you can't really compare a Red Delicious to a Granny Smith!!!

Nismo FTW...

Yep...I love Vetts. The first one I ever drove was back in 1975. It was a 72 Stingray and so the nostalgia factor of the C7 and its up scaled performance package it is pretty hard not to love. I considered it, but even though I can do it, it just didn't make sense dollar wise!
