wow, i didn't expect a G20 would pop up in a conversation for fast cars. :icon17: :p ;)

:icon18:

For me I feel like 400-500 whp is the sweet spot for a street driven car.

I, as well as many others, loved what you did with your previous Z. I'm excited to see what you have in store for the new Z...

Just got a call from the dealership...they can't locate any 2010 black 370z's in the country that is fully loaded to the specs I want. Only ones without Nav.

I'm a lost bat without Nav. I know I can easily go aftermarket but I like perfect fitment and feel of OEM...

Having them check on blue and gunmetal inventory now. I save $4k if I do 2010 instead of 2011...

I agree. Hence my plan to buy a Z06.

Why not? Plenty of SR20DET swaps. I might consider one if my transmission/engine ever take a dump in this one.

having had and driven 500 hp to the ground cars before, i am good with 300 - 340 hp to the ground steet cars....

I can't imagine that being true...in the entire country? Have you tried looking for Black Cherry?

Keep in mind I'm in Canada...lol...

The Nismo is coming to Canada in February 2011.....for you US guys, is it worth it for the wait and the extra $10k?

if you are gonna put all that money into modding the car, i dont see the point in starting with a nismo. i think you should go Touring/sport/nav so you get all the creature comforts and with the TT kit you'll have a beast of a car to boot.

Agree as well...

Anything more then that your just asking for trouble above 500hp.

I tried to search and read about the differences with the Nismo... slight power bump (insignificant), kit, suspension, exhaust, wheels, interior. Is there anything else I'm missing? I read somewhere it doesn't have nav or leather or heated seats?

and I may have to skip NAV if I want a 2010 black here in Canada... I originally wanted a 40th anniversary but it's all gone.

got it dead on the money.

Now factor in your mods and see what getting the nismo gets you
slight power bump -> Twin Turbo Kit
Suspension -> coilovers (i presume)
exhaust youd replace when going TT
wheels judging by the fact that you went with vokls on your GTR, you seem like an aftermarket wheel kind of guy
so your paying the premium for a spartan interior and a body kit. i love the body kit. but you seem to have a lot of experience in the aftermarket, i'm sure you could source a nismo body kit.
