Advantages of an auto sports package..

jchammond · 01-13-2018, 03:22 AM

Unsure on the Sport package; but 2015’ is when the 3.692 diff ratio was added to the A/T Nismo & the sticks got a 3.92:1
75mph cruising rpm’s is 2550 vs 2800 (3.357 vs 3.692)

Well, you guys can take advantage of the sports. At 69, 95% of my driving is not qgressive, though fast.

The wife says I have a better color, newer seats and paint, a garage car...The differences are limited.

I will be meeting the other guy on Tuesday, still waffling...

I say do it.
The sports Z is definitely a step above the base.

Unfortunately, a couple of hours ago, a snow plow backed into my parked car, broken read bumper and dent. The shop where it happened has agreed to get it fixed and also arranged for a loaner car for me.

I called the guy who was interested in the trade and he politely told me he had reconsidered.

Still upset about the accident but have a Subaru Outback to drive till next week.

Condolences. Hope you get it back in good shape.

Decision made! I wouldn't will a black car on my worst enemy. While they are gorgeous, nothing can overcome how big a PITA they are to keep from scratching.
