honestly it wasn't bad!

it drove like a much larger car, was stable on the expressway too... drove it through
sunny to raining frikken cats and dogs and taffyapples that day.

car did well.

only thing i didnt like was that it was one of the cheaper trims so limited accessories.
but it's a rental so cant ask for much. and cvt sucksarse.

Kool... Now if they can get a good crash test rating it might be worth the purchase?

No, I was saying Nissan is stuck on FWD, this is to generate a separation between Nissan & Infiniti.
The Q50 is either RWD or AWD, I need to check again.

i think i have an unicorn too Kenchan

PR doesn't count. There are plenty of unicorns there. In the early 2000's I learned the hard way how fast a turbo Tercel with four dudes in it was.

Whoa that is interesting....that pic was just a topic thread thrown on a local facebook page...Started reading up on it....pretty interesting "Dreamer."

Nissan is probably sticking to the FWD platform to save money on the production line....

Patently false.

Similar to guitars which are another bad habit of mine. I love custom shop guitars, the build quality is amazing and they are sexy to me. Most people wouldn't know the difference between a squire and a custom shop fender though.

Carvin FTW!

Bolio, props to you. You make an articulate argument for the Nismo Z in the face of much opposition. I hope you and all the other Nismo owners drive your Z's today and enjoy the hell out of it

It's all in good fun. Everyone has their opinion, some are more passionate about expressing it. It's been going on forever. Nismo v. Non-Nismo. Base v. Sport package, etc. At the end of the day, it's still a Z, and it's still sexy

oh... sorry. couldn't tell the difference. all them nismos look the same to me!

Davey · 07-29-2014, 03:47 PM

The NISMO to me is just a tricked out sports package 370Z. Can you build one yourself that will outperform it? Sure. Can you build one that won't? Of course. Is either of them a NISMO? Nope. Does it matter? Who ******* cares.

Yup, Nissan's making it, just like they made the Juke R, all 21 of them. It would make more sense if it were a homologation special, to run Infiniti decals in V8 Supercar, or something.
