Beef (Nismo Vs. Non-Nismo)

Wow. Pretty one-sided there. Is this simply because people don't have a NISMO or because you really think it's not a good deal. I personally think you can do more with less money than what they offer.

Im fairly sure the majority just dont find it to be a good deal at all.

The sport package on the base & touring is probably the best deal you can get with the Z, everything else is what you want or do not want. The Nismo really cannot beat out a solid base+sport, and then throw on a few thousand in upgrades. Now I can understand those who just want it tuned from factory and everything, I am a bit like that but when it comes down to price v. gain .

to me, the nismo looks too aftermarket.

Nissan should have focused more on the engine performance and less on looks. (I know, I know, a lot of the stuff on there is functional, and probably a good platform for adding mods)
I would have paid $45K-$47Kfor it, in it's current configuration, if it was putting out 425+hp. (supercharged, or small twin turbos would have been nice) maybe next year.

+1. The power output of this one is almost insulting... lol.

The Nismo Z should be to the regular Z what the GT500 is to the Mustang GT.

the real question is if the NISMO is worth buying over the non-nismos............b/c the NISMO is a better car obviously.......

If I could have either one free, I'll take the NISMO please. If I'm fronting the bill.............base with SP.
