Considering a Nismo

Thanks a bunch boss. The current Z generation looks fantastic in all colors but white does standout a bit more to me as it shows all the curves on the car. Have fun with your decision/purchase process.

Also don't forget, if you get to test drive one ask to see if the sleeves that they put in the springs have been removed. They use these when the cars are shipped. This will make a big difference.

The Nismo is sick. I'm planning to either trade my Z for a Nismo Z or I could
just be done with it by buying the Nismo body kit Non-S-tune.

As you can tell we're all zelots when it come to our love for the Nizmo. I have a Solid Red Nizmo. If your worried about the stiff ride then consider an Infiniti but for my preference there are a lot of them out there. As for the Nizmo...there is no other performance car that has it's looks and appearance. People often ask why I didn't buy the faster Corvette to which I reply that there are too many on the road, I hate being a "me-to" person or following the herd. To me it's just another car, yeah I know there are faster cars than the Nizmo...but they'll never have that look for the money. The Nizmo is in a league of it's own...it turns heads. As for color, I'd seriously look at the pearl white (be sure to tint those windows). I lived in Tucson for 5 years and black is a horrible color to keep clean. It was hard enough keeping my 350z (Daytona Blue-convertible) clean.

If there was one major complaint I had toward the Nizmo it definately is the stereo. I replaced it with an Pioneer AVIC/JL amp & 6 speakers and solved that problem. It's likely that if you bought a used Nizmo that the stereo will be an aftermarket brand. You'll need a great stereo to help muffle the tire wine...it can be deafining on roughly surfaced roads. Again, it is a sports car. Sports cars of yester-year were a lot more challenging to operate and maintain than they are today.

I don't have any regrets owning my Nizmo. It's a looker and the best damn handling car that I've driven.

Happy Motoring

PS: Invest in a good radar detector because you'll have your foot "in it" all the time...trust me - resistance is futile! My Passport 9500ix has saved my bacon more than a few times!
