Thinking about getting the Nismo.

Other 2015 differences:
- Lower axle ratio (for quicker acceleration)
- Recaro seats
- Tech package available, with Bose/Nav/Homelink/Backup Camera etc (i.e. touring features)
- Different wheels
- Interior plastic bits like door handles/locks/vents etc are a darker graphite color (maybe all 2015 Z's are like this?)
- Suspension is "retuned" - basically they dialed out a tiny bit of the harshness of the 2014 and prior. It's still quite a bit stiffer than the Base and Sport package suspension.
- The car is no longer serialized - The number plaque with serial number is no longer included
- Available automatic transmission (manual is still offered, but there were no automatic NISMO versions in the US before 2015)

That's all I can think of. They are both great cars, ultimately if you want the no-nonsense cloth interior and base radio version of the 2014 vs. the more equipped 2015 (or 2015 with Tech package, which is like a Sport/Touring/Nav + NISMO) it's more about what you intend to do with the car or what your preferences are.
