Pros and cons, Nismo vs Sports package?

Chuck33079

Maybe they prefer the body kit, wheels, suspension, exclusivity, etc? I'm not sure why that has to be explained. Different people place value on different things.

Ps trips can you give me another line of text in my sig, sir?

Rusty

I gave up on that. Just too much. Do a journal and link it to your signature.

same can be said about the Sport package

Spooler

Because I always wanted one? I like the looks mucho better than the sport model.

cigarclifford

I'm with you on this one. I liked the looks back in 2010 and I still like
the looks in 2014.........

This topic comes up,on every forum:
R/T vs SRT8
335 vs M3
RS vs SS
IS350 vs ISF
and the list goes on. IMO it boils down to this, if you have the money and it's no issue you'll never even look at the base model. Let's be honest, the Nismo, just like the M3, SRT8, ISF or AMG's are the exclusive cars of the brand and all out just look better and have a few better options, but at the least, when it's all said and done you'll have the top model of that specific car brand and thats worth a lot to me cause one of my last cars was a M3 and my two current cars are a Nismo and SRT8 and as bad as I wanted a Porsche, I can honestly say that I couldn't afford the 991 Turbo and wouldn't feel right driving anything less than a Turbo model and even the 997 was a bit much for me to spend on a used Porsche. No disrespect, just my opinion.

I'm going for the 2015 nismo tech for a few reasons.
1. fully loaded version
2. comes already track ready, no need for exhaust or any suspension work
3. knowing i have the power behind a car
4. the body style is sooo sexy and makes it a unique car on the road
5. we all know this one, any 370z breaks necks

I agree

I would only go with Nismo for the looks (I think the car is stunning) but not for power, the Nismo isn't faster than a base 370z

I thought the Nismo stock has more hp than base/sport/touring stock....
Doesn't that mean more power= faster

/\ I kinda have the same mentality. I'd rather have a top of the line whatever than entry or mid level of the next higher up car. Ie. If I were to get vette, it'd be a z06. A Porsche, it'd be a cayman r or gts bc a 911 gt3 or turbo is way outta my range etc.

1. Makes sense
2. It's not very track ready but just like any other z car it doesn't take much to get it there if you are just starting out and as you get more experienced, you'll mod the car as needed based on the shortcomings you have on track. One note about the aero, at least as far as the 09-14 nismos are concerned the aero is functional, don't know about the new 15 nismos yet.
3. Um ok
4. Personal preference but I agree
5. See #3

The stiffer suspension means it doesn't hook up as well for straight line performance like 0-60 and 1/4 mile. Also, 18 more hp at 350 hp total is nelgible.

JC-Nismo

Are you sure about that...........18hp more should net something.

Nargrakhan

From what others have told me, the added 18 hp barely offsets the extra weight.
