2013 isn't an improvement in looks in my oppinion. The fangs are much tougher. The new front end looks like a cartoon car that is going to start talking in a cheery voice. Nissan needs to bring back the fangs and put in a turbo standard. A turbo 370z would spank most anything on the street, except it's $100,000 twin turbo big brother.

Fat chance that will happen, especially since car makers are going back to the gas crunch of the 70's and making Pinto and Vega type cars. The next Z might be a four banger !

Hopefully not, but if it is...it would probably be a turbo'd version with output similar to cars in its class

Also curious how it compares to the Stillen kit. Has anyone used or heard reviews about the Stillen kit?

Wish they wouldve updated the car more, especially in the engine compartment. The car has great stock power already, but it cant hurt to add a few more ponies/ft-lbs under the hood. Not a huge fan of the new front fascia, but the overall look isnt changed much. Still an amazing car, the color options are nice too.

Stopped by the Nissan dealer today that I would never buy from, just to look at the 2013 Z's. they wanted 47k for the NISMO. Of course that included the $599 Nitro Serv. I ask about that and they told me it was the nitrogen in the tires, and then proceeded to explain it to me. I'm not sure I actually believe it is a $600 option. Of course, according to the sales "professional" the labor in deflating and reinflating the tires and the other benefits made it worth it... By the way, after working on and around aircraft for 45 years I understand what nitrogen in tires does. The guy was definitely spreading fertilizer.

Yea it was 35 for nitrogen in my tires and I can go to any of the dealerships branches for a top off. Also checked my 13 and didn't see any brake ducting but I didn't take my tire off and really just stuck my camera under there and took a few pics
