why so many used Nismos for sale?

VQinside · 12-29-2010, 06:47 AM

I just checked the "370z for sale" thread and its nothing but Nismos.
Why is that? is it too rough or something?

zcar_dad · 12-29-2010, 06:54 AM

I am having a great time with mine. I knew what is was before I bought and decided it was worth a little less comfort to have it.

Carbon_z · 12-29-2010, 07:36 AM

I would say something but the nismo guys are watching me... Mafia style

Financial reasons maybe?

Yeah, but some people just buy it because of the style and never driven a Z before and them realize that that is not what they want it.

There is were they start complaining about the suspension, Touring Package, etc.

Ok...hate all you want but....the Nismo is nothing special and its not even faster than a regular Z. A touring sport Z has more features and is nicer than the Nismo. Its just a base Z with a body kit and now people have realized its nothing special. I have said all all along that the Nismo "should be" to the 370 what the ZR1 is to the vette......and its not.

I agree with you to a certain point. THe nismo should of came with a twin turbo setup or at least putting out 400 HP. That is the only thing I wish the nismo had over the regular 370z. Other than that I am very happy with it.

I'm tired of this. Let me sum things up this way.....

I like my Nismo. I know its not faster, better, or more special than a regular Z.... It's just different. I like the difference. I don't feel entitled because I own one, I simply feel good about my purchase. I like your Z. I like my Z. Should Nissan have done more to the Nismo, Yes. Did they, No. Did I know then when I bought it, Yes.

Carbon_z · 12-29-2010, 07:39 AM

Nope... Common sense kicked in bwahaha. The 240 lb guy in the nismo noticed he couldn't be the 120lb chick driving a regular 370z

JACKPAC · 12-29-2010, 07:44 AM

Because they wanted to upgrade to the faster base auto

Carbon_z · 12-29-2010, 08:54 AM

Let's just say... We aren't doing this again lol. Check nismo check topic "should I get a nismo"

fuct · 12-29-2010, 09:30 AM
