What did you get on your Z that you see now is no big deal?

winnre · 01-02-2014, 09:51 PM

This is the sister thread to What do you wish you got that you didn't get?

Well now that we covered what you WISHED you had, is there anything you got on your Z that turned out to be no big deal after all? I don't mean something you can easily swap out, but is there something you paid extra bucks for, or held out for, that you see now that you could have easily done without?

Now that the C7 is out, my wife is looking to trade in the spring. We'll see but the for the money, the C7 is superior to the Z. Nissan needs to step up to the plate with the next iteration of the Z. The puny 332 HP engine just doesn't measure up these days. Hey, you asked!

No regrets, I just wish Navigation was offered on my 40th so I could have gotten it.

No regrets here either.

However, if the Nismo was available in the US with nav and leather, I would have probably gotten one. LOVE Magma Red. LOVE it!

Looking back though, I do like the look of my Sport Touring with the Nismo front bumper conversion and a ducktail spoiler. Maybe the Sport version should include a Nismo front bumper?

i wanted the base with only the sport package in 6MT, so that is exactly wat i got.

the added bonus was that the dealer already installed the illuminated sills and splash guards (which i didnt really need) for free.

one serious regret was not installing clearbra 5yrs ago. i have 2 sesame sized dings on the front bumper. i clearbra'ed her last year though.

edub370 · 01-03-2014, 11:18 AM

everyone without the sport package, i don't even need to scold you. you kno what u did wrong.. lol

kenchan · 01-03-2014, 11:21 AM

i suppose you get more wheel choices if you went without sport package cause you wont have to worry about caliper clearance as much.
