I would go with the Nismo 50th would be the one to buy.

Thanks to all that have participated in the poll so far and all advice given. I was leaning towards the 40th before starting this thread and I like the fact that the 40th comes with the sport package. I love the interior.

Apparently Nissan doesn't want to spend the extra money it would take to really make the Anniversary model a special car. I would love to see an Anniversary Z that offers the best of the Nismo and the Touring, sort of like the Grand Touring 350Z which had the best of the Track and Touring models. In the end it's all about the cost and the price point of the Z I'm afraid. Maybe the 50th Anniversary will be that special car. BTW It can be done. Modshack just picked up a mint conditon 2003 20th Anniversary GTI that has a bunch of performance upgrades over the regular GTI as well as cosmetic upgrades.

"The 35th Anniversary 350Z (2005) was the similarly packaged except it had the rev up motor that became the standard engine for 2006 (so did the 2005 Track model too though)." I didn't know that, good info. The way I see it is this: It would be alot easier to get the Nismo performance parts for a 40th anniversary owner. I don't think it would be that easy for a Nismo owner to get that exact interior without it being a little difficult. I'm crazy about it.

I would prefer a base model with sport package and spend the savings on "real" performance upgrades. StopTech brakes, exhaust, intake, suspension, wheels, tires, ecu re-flash, oil cooler... oh wait, I already have that! Next on the list is Vortech...
The anniversary editions are interesting, I've thought about them a few times over the years, but never felt compelled enough to pull the trigger.
