Red NISMO 370Z at the Local Dealership
 

Heres a few picks of a Nismo next to mine, they also had a Chicane Yellow base w/ Sports Package, Montery Blue Base w/Sports Package, and Brilliant Silver Base. None had Navi.

red does look cool on the Z...nice


one by one, all the colours are coming for the nismo.

Nismo looks really good from the side, but the front and back view leave me feeling ... cold. http://i.pbase.com/o4/98/583898/1/63...GO.rimshot.gif

I thought the same, but seeing it person its actually growing on me :icon14:

the long nose front throws me off

funny thing is...this one has the same paint defect going on on the driver side front fender too...

hard to see the paint defect......what's up where the hood meets the front bumper??

x2 is that just the pic making it look weird?

its the bumper. It has dips in it on the right and left side. Ive actually noticed a hint of the same on my own, ofcourse not as bad as this one.
I think the way the sun is hitting it makes it look worse than it actually is.

:icon14: lame sauce

:icon18:

seeing the nismo rims in person only confirms my original thoughts on them...

I want them on my z now!!!

YOu can actually adjust this out visually. Pop the plastic covers off the latches on either side of the hood, turn them in a turn or two and check the fit. Fixed mine.

really? good to know, i'll give it ago in the morning :tup:

The rice wing is sexy.

oddly enough it looks weird in the picture, but I find myself intriguingly interested in person :rolleyes:

I love the side profile. Not a fan of the front view but from the side and back I really like it.

i agree, the front may be a lil too much with the chin spoiler...

What size are the Nismo wheels? Tire sizes?

same as sports package, 19 inch 245/front 275 outback

The Nismo wheels are 19X9.5 front w/ 245/40-19 tires and 19X10.5 rear w/ 285/35-19 in the back. The tires are Yokohama Advan Sport.
The sport package comes with 19X9.0 front w/ 245/40-19 and 19X10 rear w/ 275/35-19. The tires are Bridgestone Potenza.

Navigation isn't an option that can be had on the Nismo

i never realize how big that wing was till now

Nope, hence the reason I went S-tune. I didn't need a second glove box...

the red nismo is so sexy :P

The front fascia is not as nice as the 370z fascia, the rear is nicer, but the big wing would have to go.

I actually prefer the stumpy front end look of the base model. The rear wing I really like but after hearing my wife's opinion I will need to see it in person.

Did the rear wing seem overly large or overbearing in person?

Looks good.

My opinion is that is is a lil too big for my taste...I dont understand why it has to be so big, they could of tuned it down a little.

No fangs, no sale!

Exactly.....:tup:

that wouldnt be Biltmore House would it?

No, That's up in W.VA at Snowshoe ski resort...

I like the nismo wing.
I hate the bumpers and back of the nismo.
But i do want a bottom lip for my z.
Just need to see if it works well with the wing i have now.

I absolutely LOVE the rear of the nismo. I absolutely HATE the front of the nismo. I love the side profile of the nismo.

That about covers it all.
