NISMO as a daily driver

ZeeBabar · 01-23-2018, 06:16 PM

On most reviews of a NISMO, it appears that the ride is stiffer and I have had people say that if you are looking to DD, a NISMO should be avoided. However, on kbb, a 2014 NISMO costs more than a used 2017 base.

If people are avoiding a NISMO as a DD, why is a used 2114 priced at $25k?

Anyone here with a NISMO as a DD? Comments?

Yes, I have no issues.

I daily'd my nismo on its suspension for a while. Wasnt bad at all

I've been daily driving my 2016 Nismo since August and it's not as rough as I expected. I previously daily drove a 2010 40th AE (non-Nismo) for 4 years, and while I can tell the difference, it's not dramatic.

Thanks for the info. There is a black 2014 Nismo for $25k with just 18.5k miles that's available about 150 miles away. I have a 2017 Base could with 30k miles. The Kbb price for my car is only $18.5k. Caravana offered me $19025 for my car.

I don't like the Nismo wing.

I think $6k is too much. Trying to figure what might be a reasonable difference to offer.

Oh yeah, I have upgraded my suspension. The ride is less bone jarring but still firm. I drove to 60k with my 2012 Nismo and the 2013 has 50k on it now.

Because its a Nismo. It seems that your not happy with your base Z why not get rid of it and buy what makes you happy and stop justifying the price why this more expensive than your 2017 base model?

For god sake Nismo is a Nismo they hold there value more than a base model.

The way Im looking at it it seems you cant afford a Nismo. Period

Spend within your capacity. If you think 6K is too much stick with your base Z. Mod it to be a Nismo who cares. Lots of people do that here.
