Classy.

I think the problem comes from the fact that the Nismo has always been easily distinguishable from the standard coupe, even more so with the Z33 version.

This new model really should have been the 2013 upgrade for the standard model.

Any change for the Nismo should have improved the aerodynamics of the current model (if practical) and added RC brake ducts and grille along with some HP/Torque, and most definitely brake improvements.

New rims are okay, but probably could have gone to 20" rims.

Adding nav and the Recaros are the only positives I see here.

It sure seems like a lot of money and effort expended on a model that supposedly is going to be changed in (now) 2016. It makes one wonder if there isn't going to be a new Z anytime soon if at all.

Yeah, nissan, if you are watching this thread, we want power! Seriously, i sold my current z 2 weeks ago to prepare for an awesome 2015 nismo. Needless to say, I'm not buying this old oddball.
I'm going to wait another year and see what they do. If they can't get it right, I'm buying a c6.

im liking the new look. i could never stand the old nismo or z33 nismo because of the wing. too boy-racer for me.

front looks good. new led drls are better than the 2013 refresh imo. not sold on the rear. rims are ok. interior is nice.

regardless, ill be keeping my 2011.

they should have put a more aggressive wing but I like the aggressive unique look. As far as losing z customers I would never get a pos 5.0 rustang the vette on the other hand is a consideration.

ok just got home. I spent the whole day helping Nissan hanging out with my friends from Nissan. I got to help debut the car and then rode in it and went on some photoshoots with it and the other NISMO GTR and JUKE RS that was there.

I got some real time with the car today, so If anyone has any specific questions let me know and I will try to answer them
