If you like the Nismo but don't like paying the extra. Do like I did. Buy one that was one of their test drive cars. Mine had 2000 on the odometer and I walked out for 37500. Gotta do some searching on the Internet but it'll be well worth it.

You WILL find some Sport package owners that wish they had gotten the Nismo however.

You usually never regret going with the best available option.
Words of wisdom! I wanted to get Sport and add Amuse body kit but at the last moment I switched to Nismo.

Sometimes I have nightmares at night that I've got Sport...

If you are like me and drive the Z a daily driver I would go for the Sports/ Touring since is more civilized and the time spent driving would be more pleasant with the audio as well. The Nismo is more of a weekend vehicle or a second car. I'm not sure you can put snow tires and use the Nismo in the Winter like I do my Z....just my 2 cents but both are awesome machines

I would never want a "Z" with an auto. Removes the fun factor.

I daily my NISMO 3 seasons.

Especially now that the NISMO has the Recaro seats and all the toys you used to get on the sport/touring I would definitely say go for the NISMO.

I wish they had done a blue Nismo! At least for 2015! I like Pearl White, though just saying'.

Once I was in the Nismo, I had to have those seats and the little touches.

Dual clutch and paddle shifters have plenty of fun factor. Slushbox torque converter, though...

What's a good price on a 2015 Nismo Tech? Is $44k out the door unreasonable?
