Personally, if you were to keep the car 100% stock, and/or you DIE for the Nismo body kit, get it... If not, don't, don't even think about it, that 18HP "upgrade" is offset by the extra weight.
To me, and I think many agree, the Nismo is just a base+sport with body kit and the tinsel of "go faster" added.

I have a Sport Touring, and I'm happy I do. A LOT of people complain about the base seats and while the seat heaters add weight the leather makes just a sports car into a sport "luxury" car

How much for a replica? Ive looked into amuse which is the one i prefer. Its just really high.

I chose the 370z nismo because I liked how it looked. However, I gave up a lot of things I could have had in a 370z for that look. The 2013 Nismo seems better equipped than the 2010 that I had, so maybe it would not be so bad. Good luck with your decision.

I just saw an amuse kit on here used for 1300.. I think the guy said he paid 1900 for it. He bought it from Aero Jacket. He still has the aero jacket fenders avail for 420 I think. ;-P hint hint... lol

Thats sounds like an awesome deal.. I may have to check into that!

Lot's of great advise. Here's my take.

Nismo is exclusive. Nice body kit. No need to change it. If you plan to change a bunch of things go for the Sport. If you don't care about the essence of either the Nismo or a Sport, go for the base to give you more mod money headroom.

Are you military? You can get the VPP pricing as well if you are (or a close family member is). :-) I got my sport for a few thousand under invoice. I got it cheaper than the Nissan employees could get it. As far as I know they do the VPP for current model year and one year previous.
