Even though I like the fangs more, I still can't see how a slightly different bumper makes the Z go all the way from pure sex to ugly.

The funnier thing is how you just casually insulted most of the newest forum members in one motion. Well, more precisely you insulted all their Zs en masse. Lols.

I wish the US Nismo Z had a Nav system like the Japanese and European versions.

Hmm.. you'd think the European models would have the cup holder on the correct side.

Pragmatically, it's all about smaller/lighter, i.e. 3k lbs and small disp turbo 6 maybe in the 300's but pushing towards 400 HP.

I wonder how soon we'll know if the Z35 is going to be a 2015 or 2016.

I've never seen a generation of Z's go 7 model years. So i think the change will come as a 2015 model.
The Q60 comes out for 2016 model year, so my guess is the Z will come out a year earlier.

You mean taking out fangs, adding horrible LEDS, horrible sports package wheels. Adding no HP, jacking up the price... Ya what a great 2013 model, no surprise why they can barely sell any.

what are your thoughts on the updated nismo?

"Nissan claims the tuned coupe can go from 0-62 mph in 5.2 seconds, 0.1 second faster than before"

^ I wonder how much more would you have to pay to go 0.1 seconds faster lool
All the Nismo's from 09-13 come with 350hp 276tq so where is the bump?

With all this Nissan going Nismo crazy, it would be nice if they stepped up to the plate like they have been with GTR's every year and add some more meaningful updates. I bought my base sport because on paper, there was 0 difference, and if there was, it didn't merit the $6,000 price difference.

The 2013 brake updates was a long time coming. Adding a legit oil cooler, beefed up abs system, and a better diff would go a long way towards a from the factory track Z which they market, but can't deliver out of the box.

Z32's went from 90-2000, though the last few weren't in the US.

Lols. Getting all postal about the new bumper and wheels doesn't make the 2013 ugly.

Maybe it's the slightly less hot twin but ugly. Nope.
