KNOW it has the most HP?
Please do your research more, because up until now, it's the most unchanged model

Don't listen to members with sour grapes that they didn't wait for a 2013. You are correct, the 2013 came with a larger intake manifold which boosted the HP to 375.

There is no best year for the Nismo. In fact we wasted 10k dollars on a body kit and wheels....... according to the non Nismo owners

I'd just say 2013 cause its newer. My 2013 felt a little more refined than my 11' did as far as suspension, fixed and corrected TSB's, oil cooler addition, no steering lock worries, etc. Things of that nature. The 13' Nismo I believe also tweaked the brakes to increase responsiveness.

No steering lock, ability to get Bose, and half the touring package, oil cooler, but I really don't think anything else

2014 will be here in about a month or so as well

I don't there is a "best" year. Maybe the 2014 but that's not here yet. If you liked the look of the 350Z Nismo, wait for the 2014 because you get a gun metal trim body kit to match the wheels as well as a cool steering wheel and nav options. The 2013 you have the option for bose and you get gun metal wheels. Other then that, they really aren't that different as other members stated. It's all about what YOU like.
