2013 Nissan 370Z Updates - Just facts, no BS.

Funny that some people here are so excited to have the nismo with leather. I would never own a sports car with leather as you slide around so much more.

I'd prefer a Nismo with options. Not just leather, the 09-12 Nismo is bare stock - manual seat adjustment, no auto dimming mirror, no Alcantara, Nav option, integrated climate control, etc. (Bells & whistles)

For me that was what sold me on the 370z Touring/Sports w/Nav in the 2008 aside from the fact that it drives great, it felt like a ~$40K car IMO. These stuff are Standard on a lot of cars, you can get all this in other cheaper Nissan models.

you also have to remember that this isnt just a 40K car its a sports car, so some of those features are not top priority when building one.

Yeah what sold me on the base Z with sport package was that on most other cars I have to get all the bells and whistles. To me it's just more weight and more stuff to break. Honestly I like wind-up windows more than electric ones and can't stand power (read: slow) seats. Different strokes for different folks but we both landed on the same car!

The majority of the leather seat is the suede material.. i havent experienced any sliding on hard cornering.

So hold on................are they going to release the "Touring" NISMO to the rest of us common folk? If so, I am really sad now. Wonder if I could return to stock and trade in. Hmmmmmmmm..............

Unlike the regular Z in 2013. I dont think the Nismo will disappoint at all.

But it has very little change over previous Nismo's. Just wheel/calipers color and SS brake lines. No reason to upgrade your Nismo IMHO.

I wish Nissan trickled down some stuff to the Nismo that they learned from designing the Nismo 370z RC....albeit without the roll cage.

wstar · 07-31-2012, 05:45 PM

Well it's all tradeoffs, and some of those RC features wouldn't sell well to a typical "sportscar" (read: I'm in it for the looks) buyer, and/or would raise the price significantly.

idk if its already been asked " I didn't see anything " but will the new 13" nismo have the new running lights in the front cover?
