I understand about driving like a noob. I've had my Z for almost a month and I'm still not fully smooth with it yet. It definetly is harder than other cars I've driven to get perfect. My WRX was a lot easier to get a grasp of as is my friends SRT-4. Even the Z06 Vette I drove didn't take long to get used to. Still, you will get better with time in the Z. Actually it got to the point where I didn't drive my 280z for almost 3wks and when I got back in that car I was driving like a new teen. The clutch in my 280z is far from as stiff as the 370z. With any car it will take time to get used to it but with the 370z it will take a little longer. I wouldn't let that detour you from getting the 6speed.

As for the Nismo, I don't care for it and don't see the appeal unless you only care about rarity. If you like a rare car then go for it but aside from that it's really nothing special. Don't get wrong, it's not bad, but if I wanted base interior I would just get a base and save some money. If I wanted to pay 39k for a Z I would get the touring. To each their own and if you like it just get it. The only Nismo part I want are those wheels. Eventually I'll get those for my Z.
