That is pretty good advice. I just bought a base with the sports package and couldn't be happier. I had a Roush stage 3 427R Mustang with lots of mods like you and had the same fears as you. Afraid it would get stolen, keyed up out of jealousy, etc... so happy and so much less stress with the Z and driving it is a blast!!!! Not as fast straight line as my stang was but every bit as exciting. Of course the stang was putting out over 500hp.

I would test drive a base with sports and the nismo if so inclined, but be forwarned... if you drive it you will want it!!!! Good luck
