Beef (Nismo Vs. Non-Nismo)

Tim

So obviously all around the forums there are those that like the Nismo and those who don't, just a small simple poll to see the differences in which one you prefer

Please respect what other users think

if the nismo was available the same time i would have concidered it but im very happy with my base sport since i rather add my own mods than getting it out of the box

I find the Nismo looks a bit outlandish, but on the other hand, the picture of the red one Educ8r posted looked pretty nice.

In the end, I just cant justify the price increase for minimal changes.

Wow. Pretty one-sided there. Is this simply because people don't have a NISMO or because you really think it's not a good deal. I personally think you can do more with less money than what they offer.

im a nismo fan but the nismo is just a body kit and an exhaust. interior is the same it just says nismo. oh and the sunspension. touring is more stuff and nicer and nav is nice

nogoodname

Nismo model Z is mainly for the name.

The only things I like about the NISMO is the body kit (minus the wing) and the rims.

But the price for the lack of features does not attract me.

MightyBobo

Im fairly sure the majority just dont find it to be a good deal at all.

The sport package on the base & touring is probably the best deal you can get with the Z, everything else is what you want or do not want. The Nismo really cannot beat out a solid base+sport, and then throw on a few thousand in upgrades. Now I can understand those who just want it tuned from factory and everything, I am a bit like that but when it comes down to price v. gain .

to me, the nismo looks too aftermarket.

Nissan should have focused more on the engine performance and less on looks. (I know, I know, a lot of the stuff on there is functional, and probably a good platform for adding mods)
I would have paid $45K-$47Kfor it, in it's current configuration, if it was putting out 425+hp. (supercharged, or small twin turbos would have been nice) maybe next year.

While I do like some aspects, I think it's too over priced and looks too boy racer for me personally. To each their own.

+1. The power output of this one is almost insulting... lol.

The Nismo Z should be to the regular Z what the GT500 is to the Mustang GT.

the real question is if the NISMO is worth buying over the non-nismos............b/c the NISMO is a better car obviously.......

If I could have either one free, I'll take the NISMO please. If I'm fronting the bill.............base with SP.
