Default I voted for the 2015

Comparing the 2014 and 2015 is like night and day. I transitioned from a manual transmission to the automatic with the 7-speed and paddle shifters. I was reluctant to do so because I've always enjoyed shifting but now I'm glad I did.

The front facia has an aggressive look to it now compared to the 2014 front bumper....certainly "announces" your presence in the rear-view of the guy in front of you! LoL The red paint accents give the car more curb-appeal to as do the redesigned rocker panels and the new rear spoiler. I had a 2010 NIsmo with the whale tail and it didn't seem to "flow" with the design of the car overall but I could live with it.

The Recaro seats are so good, I don't shift around during aggressive driving thru the twists at all!

My white 2015 Nismo is equipped with the tech package which is an added bonus. The Bose system with 2 subwoffers can crank out some serious music and at loud volumes the speakers don't get over-powered/distorted. The fit & trim of the interior is so good that nothing buzzes other than the radar sector cord! The GPS & map finder works exceptionally well as do ALL the other features of the tech package...certainly worth the extra expense. The Homelink mirror is nice because I don't need to have an ugly garage door opener on the sun visor that keeps popping off onto the floor board.

Odd thing is that with my 2010 Nismo, I had to replace the stock stereo system (I also replaced the rear view mirror with a Homelink unit) because at the higher volume levels which were needed to cover the drone of the road noise...the car was very loud, especially when the tires needed replacement. I spent nearly as much to upgrade that 2010 Nismo (totaling over $44,000 with the cost of the car and the upgrades) as I did for my new 2015 ($45,800) but with factory installed options, automatic, aerodynamic upgrades, new sound deadening materials, new styling features, and Recaro seats!

In my book...it was a no-brainer!

Just my 2 cents
Regards
Stephen Newton
