Nice, my murdered 13 still has new car smell but only had 1600 miles since I bought new. Quite sad but don't get much opportunity to drive it. So it remains garage queen.

Personally I prefer the earlier kit/wing/wheels, and the later black interior bits, seats, headlights, gearing, and nav option.

You forgot the better wheels, much better looking, the rarity, exhaust, all while being OEM and under warranty. Plus you have a Nismo, who doesn't like having something better. I also told him to grab a used one. No need to spend 42 grand on a new, worse looking Z

I'm confused why a 2010 vs a 2017? Between those two I guess a 2017 nismo but I can't imagine the price even being nearly the same so why is a 2013+ sport out of question? You'll get same oil cooler and with just an exhaust and tune same go as nismo with money to spare.

I guess I could go any way as I have loved every version of the 370z 2009, 2013, nismo and reg and the 2015+ nismo. I just find them all good looking in their own way. In terms of timeless design though I think 2013+ will have a look that will last (maybe biased as that's what I have). When shopping I liked the dang design more as it is more aggressive but then the 13 grew on me and looks like a more classic timeless look (300z big mantaray opening).

I'm somewhat of an echo to most of these statements, but one thing I'll admit is that a lot of I want to do to my Z is getting a good share of the OEM Nismo parts. Of course, I'm not actually going to do that, but in hindsight I kinda wish I held out for a deal on a Nismo.

On another note, the 2018 Heritage Z supposedly runs a newer Exedy clutch. No idea if that implies anything regarding the CSC or is a noticeable upgrade of any sort. I'd doubt it if they still keep the goofy flywheel.

The clutch will be made to OEM specs at a price point. Nothing special. Exedy was the low bidder.

Couldn't you get an 'older' model (since the body hasn't changed much at all) and install some bride recaros and call it a day? Talk about saving a bunch of $$

What you save on the car. You will pay for the seats.

Mine has factory cooler & added 50rwhp from stock & runs 200'ish cruising around...a little spirited driving & 220,230 will come up before you know it....it's definitely one of the 1st foundation mods I should have started with....unsure how warm it got before installation of mods.
Recently seen 240+ after hitting it pretty hard.

In all of this Florida heat, I have never seen my oil temps go past 210, even idling in traffic.

I love my 2010 Sport, but also prefer the new Nismo's design.
