Either bring on a new Z35 or at least look to increase the HP and performance in the car in general. I feel like this car hasn't changed (bc it hasn't) in the last 9 years.

**Disclaimer - I LOVE my Z - I wouldn't trade it for anything else at the moment but if I was looking at a new Z - I could easily cross shop it against better vehicles out there for either a little more or much less money. Just saying.

That's why they make a base and a sport. Those insignificant mods and minor updates on the nismo, keep your car from flexing on track. That's race car shyt. Not even our competitors come with that. Those are mods that are typically outsourced in the aftermarket and cost about $8,000 by themselves. Then you get the akebono lsd, recaros and now the exedy clutch.

If you're not into religious tracking? You buy the sport model. Nissan didn't add 18 HP to the nismo to make it faster. They added 18HP to compensate for the extra weight of EXPENSIVE body bracing. So if you're not on track? You won't be losing out if you buy a sport!

Let's not forget the Nismo has different shocks, Yamaha dampers, different tires and wheels. I think that street price being $42,000 is a really good deal.

Getting rid of the base nismo was dumb as fukk though. They just alienated the hardcore enthusiast who cares about taking 50lbs out their car.
