I saw a sport/touring '13 in person and I thought it looked great.

I agree. If you have not seen the car (and the new wheels) in person you need to, before you make up your mind they're ugly.

If you see them in person and still think they're ugly, then I can't really argue with that, but until you actually walk around it and see everything I think it's a bit premature to call the car "generic" or "ugly."

I think they look different, but good.

They look okay, but I intentionally bought a '12 rather than a '13 because I like the look of the fangs better. To me it looks more aggressive. They were also offering 0% interest on the 2012's so that was a plus too:happydance:

Common... Midnight blue baby! That's the color I painted my 240Z back in the day! Wish I could swap my PW to MB! That color is just awesome. :tup:

I'd keep my front bumper though. :tiphat:

I love the 2013 front bumper and updates. It seems like this should have been the evolution after the 350z and harkens back to Datsun. Everyone will tell you to see the 13's in person. If there's honestly someone who think's the 2013's are still ugly after seeing them in person ... no words :confused:

IMO, At least now owners won't black out the fangs and create a massive black hole in front.

Looks are subjective. There are people who think the '13 is godawful fugly and that the '09-'12 is gorgeous, and there are people who think the exact opposite.

Personally, I don't like the '13 as much, but I still think it's quite an attractive vehicle. I like the more aggressive look with the fangs better. Just personal preference. And I've seen plenty of '13 models in person already :tiphat:

I feel similarly... I don't like the '13 better and intentionally picked up a '12 because I liked it better... But I don't think the '13 is a bad looking car at all. I actually really like the wheels now that I've seen them, and wonder if they're just as light.

Are there any other standard features added to the 2013 or is it just the bumper?


MiPad not yours

changed up the wheels, red calipers, offered an optional leather/bose package for the nismo, and I'm sure there were other incremental changes.

Also, "euro-tuned" shocks on the sport package.

It just needs a more aggressive lip kit.

Here's one I designed/sketched.

Wow I love that lip kit! It makes the 13' more agressive!

I totally agree. Looks are subjective... Although I like the 09-12 better, the 13' is not bad at all. And I definitly like the 13' Nismo better then the 09'-12' Nismo.:yum:
