Magnetic Black 2019 Nismo Z

Emonster · 10-09-2021, 10:57 AM

Finally decided on a 2019 Nismo Z with 27000 kms in February of 2021 after debating for over a year over 3 different cars. I was hesitating between an older Dodge Viper, a Jaguar F type R, and the Nismo Z. Right from the beginning I muuuuuch preferred the Nizmo Z styling, but really liked the power and sound of the Jag, and the Dodge Viper was more of a teen dream of mine.

The only reason that I was hesitant with the Z was because I thought that the power was a little low. I found a lease take over which I could not pass up, so I went for it anyways. I am really impressed with this car. The power is enough for my needs. It has a manual gearbox, awesome suspension and killer looks. It is a blast to drive! The only thing I did not like, was the sound, so I changed the big *** muffler for 2 axle-back J2 mufflers. What a difference! The engine sounds great now.

I have never heard someone cross-shop a Z with those vehicles especially when a new one is around the corner, haha.

A buddy of mine has a 2000 GTS - ACR (the silver/grey one). Awesome car, and I also had a few posters of it on my wall as a kid. But suffice it to say, the Nismo Z is a much more livable everyday car, in essentially every way possible. He also has an e39 M5 which gets driven far more regularly simply due to comfort and usability. I'd say you made the right choice. Welcome to the forums

Thanks for all the comments guys.

The viper is still on my mind, but only when I get a much bigger garage!

I love it! I got a 2018 Nismo M/T same color as yours just this past fall. It's a keeper. I'm a little crazy about it haha.
