2016 red nismo
 
4 Attachment(s)
I have had 2 other z cars, a 79 280zx 5 speed manual, that started out life in a tough to view lime green that I had repainted professionally to the porsche guards red. That car was green for the 3 years I owned it and lasted 2 months as red before it got stolen.

Also had an 85 300zx turbo in white, 5 speed manual.

I just bought a 2016 red nismo with the 7 speed automatic. I loved the paddle shifters after a test drive. Looking forward to getting the car as I had to have it shipped in from out of state.

Had my Z shipped too. The waiting was rough but worth it! Congrats.... it's a beautiful nismo!

Thanks! Good to know I'm not the only obsessed car guy that will have a car shipped in!

I didn't have mine shipped in, but I did drive over 300 miles to get her.

great looking car, remember to drive it hard, for they like to run...

Great looking car and welcome. I flew into Kansas City and drove home to Cleveland for mine in 2011. Eight hundred glorious miles in two days. What we won't do for the love of cars...

Thank you! Yes waiting is not a whole lotta fun, especially when I see so many locally windy roads I can be trying the car out on.

I dig it!

Zfan,

Now that is one sharp car.... and of course everyone here already knows that Red is the fastest color...

Welcome

A couple more pics of the nismo. I was lucky enough to also get the original price sticker with the paperwork as well as all of the manuals. Now I'm just trying to figure out how to use all the electronics in the car!

Very Nice! Congrats!
Now do me a favour and go check your front springs to make sure the plastic shipping spacers have been removed. Mine weren't. This gets forgotten on 80% of Nismos.

Looks stunning. Im in the UK. Picking my pearl white 2016 Nismo up in two weeks time having moved up from a modded 350z. Cant wait to get her. Have lots of plans and parts ready and waiting to fit. Will post up some photos when i have it.

The waiting is a real pain but very much worth it! I almost bought a white one before finding out they were available in red. It took a little patience to track 1 down. Yours' will be right hand drive? I have not seen a nismo in right hand drive yet. I hope you will post pictures.
