Nope, you aren't missing anything.... the OP is stating that he wants to start with a Nismo, and then put the Amuse body kit on it and then do some other mods.

I personally feel (as a LOT of other 370Z Owners here do) that this would be a complete waste of money because a majority the people I know that have the Nismo got it for the body kit (and the "20" extra HP, lol) that it has.

The OP did NOT know that the pictured car features an Amuse body kit, and although it is a very nice looking car, I have no idea why that particular owner would also feature the Nismo stripes and logo on a car with an Amuse body kit, but as the saying goes, "To each, his own"

Also.. what can you get for the price of a TT kit and suspension upgrades that, stock, would be 'much better' than the 370?
@dirtrat
ShinyBlueZ pretty much said it, i dont have all this money gathered up, im doing all these things over time, but i need to get a car by August.

@ShinyBlueZ
im not quite sure what you asked on the bottom of your post?

I knew there was an amuse body kit on it because thats how i came across it online, after looking for a few pictures of the body kit. But the main reason im getting the 370z nismo rather than the standard one even though im putting in all these mods in, is because the engine and performance upgrades, such as the GTM twin turbo stage (2/3) kit, that im getting will take me about a year to gather the money for so "22 hp" is something id prefer having. Also, the exterior things, such as the amuse body kit, varis hood, and Voltex GT wing; will take even longer for me to get than that, and i really dont like the standard 370z look, so i will be using the 370z nismo bodykit itself for a bit before i change it.

Last but not least,

im not quite sure what you mean by that but id like you to explain. Are you saying that it seems kind of foolish to leave the nismo badge on the back of the car and leave/add the nismo stripes on the side of the car because it has an amuse body kit on it? i dont get the relation? or do you mean something else?

Its actually 18hp increase over the standard Z . And trust me, you wouldn't be able to tell a difference between 332hp and 350hp. So if you are only wanting a Nismo because of the 18hp, I would agree with everyone else that you should just buy a standard Z in which you could just add an exhaust and CAI and be right around 350bhp anyways. Just my 2 cents, if you are really dead set on a Niz, go for it!

woops i thought the standard was 328hp, i wasnt sure because since 2 years ago when i got into the 370z i never even gave practically any attention to the standard 370z, im not a fan of it AT ALL without the nismo body.
The addition of the 18hp is a main, but not complete reason to why im getting the nismo. Its mainly because the exterior will take me 1 1/2 - 2 years to get started on. So the nismo body kit seems practical because i dont want to "not like" my car for that long
