I understand you don't like the Nismo but to start a thread that's going to lead to a flaming is just troll like. I suggest you back off the trashing of Nismo or be prepared for what's to come!!!

Hey I like my mx5 but i am not here to talk abnout that. i owned a 240z and have always had an interest in the Z's, especially when Nissan introduced the 350, and i am looking to buy a 370. I was merely browsing on the net and came across some Nisomo 370 images and i thought to myself, man this thing is ugly too boy ricer for me. Mechanically the nisomo is good, just hate the looks and stating my opinion, that's all so go take a lie down.

heh, the nismo looks better than the standard one. sounds like someone just wanted to join to start a fight and rile up people.

the wing is a bit much for me, but everything else is awesome. the Nismo definetly looks a thousand times better than a mx5!

^Wow almost Identical to what I said before my firefox f'ed up.

Nick, you are entitled to your opinions, but many people on this website chose to purchase the Nismo. Appreciation of aesthetics is quite relative, especially in the context of vehicle exteriors.
People who start threads with subjects titles such as yours and have general blanket statements are generally refereed to as trolls.

my point is to each their own.....You like the mx5 what if I say its ugly? You just got defensive didnt you? Dont hate on people for buying a Nismo because they like it.....

Oddly enough, the visual aesthetics of the Nismo is what ultimately persuaded me to purchase it. I can get much better performance parts of equal value for much less than "nismo" brand, but to get equal exterior enhancements alone would almost cost what the upgrade to the Nismo did.

Visually, the Nismo beats the stock/sports 370z, even if it doesn't blow enthusiasts away with it's performance.

My Nismo, for reference:

no problem, to some people the mx5 is ugly and that is cool. as i said i just love the 370z and it is a great car on many levels. I only started this thread cause iwas browing the net and came across a few nismo images with comments from other people and that just sparked me up. i apologise to nismo owners but i was just stating my opinion.

No need to apologize for your opinion, but the OP came across very...abrasive, at best.

The bodykit/spoiler on the Nismo is a turn-off to some, and that's fine. Don't get the Nismo and spend a little cash upgrading a base/sports. That way, you get what you want and you don't even need to start a thread bashing the Nismo to do it!!! :P
