Default 2014 nismo

Hello all,

I am in the market for a brand new nismo, but i am conflicted over the fact that the 2014 will be out sometime during the summer (within months), but is it worth the wait? or should i just try to get a 2013 model?

The differences seems to sum up to the red stripes stickers, new steering wheel and 2 toned body. If anything, i like the mono color more, it doesn't make the car look like its driven by a try hard.

any thoughts on this issue? ex: why one would wait for 2014 vs just go and pick up a 2013? I know it's subjective, but I am just gathering thoughts, thanks for the replies in advance.

The 2014 also has a different rear bumper to fit a buttplug or fog light

Unless you really care about the cosmetic changes that much there really isn't a reason to wait. Also, nissan is offering 0% financing on current models. 2014 models will not be afforded that luxury until the end of that year cycle. This is a promotion that has been repeated for the last couple of years. When I purchased my 2013 the 2012 promotion had just ended. I had hoped to take advantage of the 2012 promotion on a 2013 model but was not able to. food for thought.

Not a new bumper! It's an individual housing for the lower fog. Just waiting for Nissan to issue the parts catalog so I can order one for mine!

This raise another concern, i have contacts few dealers near by and they confirmed it that there is only 2 new nismo within the states. one is black and one is silver, that means I will have to wait for nissan to delivery the pearl white over sea (by then, 2014 model will be out). I guess I need to be patient either way, just not too sure of the cosmetic changes. what are everyone's thought on the cosmetic update?

while I have a tendency to denigrate those who use the term, I believe "try hard" is an adequate description of the cosmetic changes on the 2014 nismo line. I really don't like the way it looks. Ofcourse that's just my personal opinion; you can always choose to be wrong .

Get the 2013. Search cars.com for dealership inventory, you may find a white one around. I just ran a quick search and there are a few white ones. You may just have to travel. I'm not a fan of the two tone. Steering wheel is nice but you can get better from Carbon Fiber Element.

theres a 13 magma red just like mine sitting at the dealership 400 yards from my house. they are around, but you have to look in the "high brow" areas as its not a car they sell a lot of. limited production with a limited demand stacked on top. this imo will be a car to hang on to 30 years from now. hell, 240s and 300s are super popular and sought after in less than half that time and they made a blue TRILLION of those damned things.

I'm in utah, but the three local dealerships that I had contacts with said that there's only two nismo among states, which are silver/black.. however, I have decided to wait till 2014 model comes out and see how it looks in black.

The new two-tone Nismo reminds me of the Nismo 350Z and it looks great IMO. The darker wheels are also sexy. How much would you save if you get the older model?
