F'ing Garbage. The sole reason i didn't get a Nismo was because it didn't have the touring/Nav. Otherwise I would have gotten it.

I mean seriously why would someone pay 40k+ and not want leather????

I would. I don't like it. Waking up at 230 in cold *** weather (for us Cali people at least) the last thing you want is to plop down in a freezing *** leather seat while half asleep that takes 10 mins to warm up. Even with seat Warner's it's not much better. Same for summer. Sitting down in a chair that burns you after a long day at work sucks. I love my cloth recaros

As far as the prettyness over normal cloth tho, a definite yes. Especially in grey/persimmon (or whatever it's called)

I prefer the cloth Nismo seats over the leather based on looks AND comfort. Purely subjective though. I believe you slide around a lot less with the cloth weave as well.

No, Canadian Nismos are similarity equipped as US. No option for nav/leather seats neither. And they were only available for 2011 up here

Was I the only one that had to use Google to find out who this person was?

The comments or at least the sequencing was scripted. It closely follows Nissan's three layer philosophy:

Layer 1: Comfort
Layer 2: Operational Needs of Driver
Layer 3: Informational Layer (gauges etc)

Great production and Micheal really sells the car and has great on camera presence..

takjak2 · 07-02-2013, 07:54 AM

Almost all of the "changes" and "improvements" her is talking about are the Nismo package from 2009. I wish the red striping wasn't just stickers.

exedy699 · 07-21-2013, 03:39 AM

So has the navi been confirmed for US Nismo models? It has been the only reason I haven't pulled the trigger on a PW Nismo. Love the integration of Navigation with system information and car stats. The look of an aftermarket double din unit kill it IMO.

Stoked to see it with the new black accents as well!

I did read that bit. Was just wondering if anyone had any extra input.

The dealers in Tucson all say they've been trained in the new model, yet say navi will not be an option lol. Seems like another case of the customer educating the rep ha.

Much obliged Z_ealot
