Now driving a 14 Nismo, price and mileage was just too good to pass up. Tho the 370 are fat heavy hogs anyway I do think my 12 sport/touring would out accelerate my Nismo. I use to hate the boy racer spoiler but it has grown on me. 15 Nismo blends in with the other level Z's so would i pay eXtra nah. I would take the new Nismo headlights in the blink of an eye, that is about it. Yeah the seats are awesome but can't see them being comfortable enough for road trips.

All they had to do was throw FI at it, but no... can't have anything nice when the bean counters are in charge.

No regrets on my 2010 Nismo purchased new. Still enjoy driving it and received many positive comments over the years. No plans on trading it in any time soon.

Now, will we ever see the Nismo roadster? Or was it just a concept? Now that's a Nismo I would love

The current Nismo was the model I was hoping for when I bought my 2010 touring/sport/navi. The old Nismo was way too boy racer looking for me with a base model interior. The pre 2015 still has the best looking wheels though, specially the silver ones.

TriNismo · 02-15-2016, 12:41 AM

I love everything about my 14 Nismo over the 15+ models, except the seats and headlights. I installed the headlights (nice contrast of black on white), and if I ever get those seats my car would be the ideal Nismo for me.

Pretty sure the gun metal interior accents are NISMO issue only...

The only thing I can really care less about is the spoiler. Well that and they stopped numbering them since they expanded the NISMO to other models. I like the older nismos but the new ones are just... Wow. Especially the interior and when you lower them.

I like the new Nismo over the old one except I would trade someone for the earlier Nismo wheels and White with red interior is the only color I would get in the new car
