when i see in nismo cruise by me, i usually say "damn thats a sexy ride"...but for me i want to have a hand in customizing my Z in every aspect...so not getting the nismo was the obvious choice for me

There are a lot of threads these days of Nismo owners trying to justify their purchase. You never see a base model guy go on a rant about why he didn't want the Nismo!

I lol'd.

LOL. I don't think we ever needed to justify our purchase by thinking about what we Could do to a base and try to have it better than a Nismo and try to balance or budget what to do with which parts and so forth. I don't see to many posts about Nismo owners regretting or trading in their Nismos. I see alot of NON Nismo guys that try to justify their non purchase of a Nismo by saying it's not any better. One of the differences is in plain sight when you look at it. And all these base vs Nismo threads are usually started by a non Nismo owner. Again trying to belittle us for buying a Nismo. And if there is anyone that doesn't like their Nismo and trades it in, more power to you, get what you want, be happy.

yeah except this one was started by a nismo owner justifing that his NISMO is better than a base/sport. I seriously doubt anyone saying that the nismo is not any better than a base/sport package is trying to justify not getting one. its quite frankly, just an obvious observation

If you want to talk about obvious observation, this thread would of never been started if the other one was never started. If anything, this thread is redundant and should have been combined with the other thread (Is the NISMO worth it?)

not sure about the other nismo owners but i did.
i don't race other cars on the street. it's against the law and dangerous.
so i don't need a superfast car. i just need a car that looks superfast and is fun to drive. that would be the nismo.
