But hey thank goodness for options as I'm happy you're happy with your purchase and the support of the Z.

I understand you but I didnt pay over $40k for a new Nismo hah. I love the Zs but no way do I feel, as they are now, that they are worth that much. Plus they depreciate SO MUCH after just one yr hence I was looking for a 14 Nismo. I agree its largely bodywork but you cant forget the amazing wheels and nice suspension set up that keeps the car hella planted in corners. Also I honestly didnt even bother looking at any of the older Zs without factory oil coolers so Z wise my options were a lil limited. Being that I was in the market for a new vehicle which will be my DD, I also didnt look at anything that wouldnt still have some factory warranty left, just in case.
With regard to the other models, if all cars were made equal quality wise, reliability wise, ownership cost wise, etc, I'd def picked another platform. However thats not the case and speed wasnt the #1 factor in my equation. Im not a blind Z fanboy like lots of the forum members here seem to be. I def appreciate other makes and models, some of which are blowing the current Z out the water in certain categories. The Nismo just happened to be the best combination of all factors I was including. And with its great looks and low sales numbers I really think it'll stand the test of time. I pray it doesnt become what I feel my 350z became...
