Strange. All via the Nissan site. Wonder if it was just a weird translation.

Well, I originally thought the Nismo was getting more HP and some modifications to the body. After ImportConvert replied I checked out the US press releases. They always list off the older changes with the newer ones. I guess its to give whatever dorky writer who pics up the release enough information to sound informed in their article/blog/whatever.

So I guess the only actual new stuff conveyed with that Nissan JP link is the official graphic of Gun Metallic. It's all that actually applies to us anyway.
