Question Nismo Body Kit

I plan on getting a Nismo 370z in pearl white but I'm not a big fan of the body kit (bumper, sides, rear bump) and was wondering if I could buy a nismo with the original body panels, or how much I could get out of selling or trading (for original) would be.

Why not just buy a regular 370 and add the Nismo performance parts? That would definitely be much more affordable.

Umm nismo parts dont do squat for the car... the only reason you would get a nismo 370 is for the looks... save yourself the trouble and get a 370

I'm sure there will be plenty of people on here with non-nismo Z's that would be willing to trade with you.

what really gets me to want the nismo is the shiny nismo badge on the rear and the authentication one; and the wheels, but I also think the engine alterations, "few extra hp", and the seats are neat too.
and it is only 1,670 more than the touring+sport.

But thanks for the ideas & opinioins so far, I still have some time to think about it. Maybe I'll have something at the beginning of next year if I rush it

Respectable that you want it just for the fact that its the NISMO. Just know, there aren't many "engine modifications" at all - just a new cat back and slightly different tune. Just making sure ya know.

Yeah, I've looked it all up, that's why i put "few extra hp" in quotations, and the car is heavier, i spent a lot of time looking between all the models and trims

Nismo Z with the stock look. I'm very sure what ever colour you buy. There will be ppl on here that will trade. Buying all the nismo parts seperate is not worth 16XX dollars.

I say go for the Nismo Z and trade bumpers with someone and by next year. There will be even more owners on here.

No I meant, the engine isnt modified at all really. Just the exhaust.
