I ordered some AG2 to compare with the "red lips" of the 2015 Nismo. While the red color matches, there's this "metallic" sheen to the paint that is not in AG2. Doing some personal research I've discovered a color called "Sparkle Red" by Dupli-Color. Supposedly Nissan calls this color "A15" in their inventory code... but I can't find anything like that from Nissan. I've ordered a sample of Sparkle Red from Dupli-Color to do some on-hands investigation... or possibly mixing a bit with "AG2" to see if it works. Will report findings ASAP. Please note this is an experiment for "touch up" purposes when the red lips are damaged by road chips. The lips are supposed to be OEM prepainted when ordered from Nissan. You don't have to order paint for them, if that red is the color you want. Last edited by Nargrakhan; 12-18-2014 at 02:31 PM. |

I have been a Z fan since birth. I've had a 1990 300ZX and 2003 350Z. I have to admit, for me, it was love at first sight for the 2015 Nismo. I actually never liked the previous Nismo Z's because of the front bumper and the large rear wing.

If the 2015 Nismo was actually introduced as the new new sport model or 40th then all cheers because that's what it looks like, but for a Nismo it needs more. I like it, but wouldn't get out of my Nismo for it. And I beg to differ for those who think my or others cars look like a base or sport in any way, both are awesome cars, but when you see a Nismo you know it's one, but hey what the hell do I know.

Hopefully, they get it right in 2016 with a redesign. Seems like most of us don't care for this "update" too much. I, personally, loved the 2014 NISMO update. I like being able to distinguish the Nismo from the base model.
I sold my base in anticipation that the 2015 Nismo would be the car for me. I ended up not getting one because i don't feel like it's much more special than the base model. Now I'm waiting to see what 2016 looks like. Give us some extra power please! I love the Z, but it's getting long in the tooth on this model and getting spanked by similar priced camaros. Was a great car in 09... but 6 years later, no improvements is killing this car even more than the bad 2015 exterior update. |

We'll see what happens with the next generation, unless they are revolutionary changes I have no intention of upgrading from my Z33 personally |
