Easily remedied.

Looks good. Better in the flesh. I don't care much for the wheels and the lack of a wing throws me off a bit, but the seats are great and the auto option is a nice addition.

We're spoiled by what the Z can fit it terms of wheel setups so I don't think anything stock will appease the masses but make no mistake, these are the nicest stock wheels ever put on a Z. They look great for what they are.

Otherwise, I'm just glad Nismo is creating a real cohesive look across their cars so you know exactly what it is. Whether or not it does it for everyone is really just personal preference. They really needed to add a similar wing, maybe slightly less aggressive version of the previous nismo with a subtle red strip edging it out. Then, its complete.

The seats though...my god. Must have. This car dropped is going to look amazing.

I keep looking at pictures of it, and I just can't seem to like it. Which, in turn, makes me feel much better about just buying my '14 NISMO 4 months ago. :)

But, I can't get enough of those seats! And I'm loving all the dark pieces in the inside… gunmetal shifter surround, door handles, etc.

jizz...eeeeeeeeeverywhere!!!!!

I just want the seats.

It's a decent upgrade. I love the front bumper especially with the red trim. That wing looks wimpy though. I know a lot of you don't like the "boy racer" Nismo wing, but that's part of what makes the Nismo a Nismo. It's not supposed to be subtle, but aggressive. The old style does that perfectly without being a whale tail.

The seats: waaaaaant. Would probably be too expensive to do a swap though. Nav: meh. Everyone has GPS on their phones now, nav units seem a bit pointless.
7AT: Pretty awesome if you like that sort of thing, I'd rather have the MT though.

I love the minor adjustments to the interior. I gotta find a way to darken all my silver accents like that, looks sexy as f*ck. And it looks like the white ring around the start button glows red. Gonna take a look to see what's possible when I do the GTR button swap.

Overall its not causing me any grief on my recent '11 Nismo purchase, just giving me inspiration.

the only thing i hate about the 2015 nismo is that they didnt upgrade the engine with at least 400 bhp

Tick64 05-18-2014 03:41 PM

I'm dying to see the other color options... especially the black! :excited:

I was excited when I saw the teaser..............

All in all, I am relieved and disappointed in the same breathe. I like the larger opening in the front bumper, but don't like it's style. The rest of the aero is "whatever" to me. As much as I complain about the visibility the 09-14 wing blocks, I still like it. The 15 made me glad that I turbo'd my 09 (because it is a keeper). The only downside I see currently, is the fact that the 13-14 NISMO wheels will be that much harder to get now. I was planning on having a 13-14 set for summer and a 09-12 set for winter. Oh well, lol.

Oh yeah.........that more refined, mature sports car thing is a crock of crap. It looks like spacecraft or TRON car compared to the earlier NISMO Edition. The 09-14 NISMO Edition had it right in the looks department. If you wanted to look "mature", get the Touring Sport and call it a day. There is nothing refined about this NISMO in terms of looks. The interior is a different story, but they couldn't seem to get that quite right either with the seat installation/position.

I would be willing to bet that the new Nismo bumper is completely interchangeable with the stock set-up to the point that the front fender liners and the undertray are now the same parts as the standard ones (non-Nismo).

You can get your wheels.. But retail pricing will come with...

One thing that came to mind, was a few years ago, our first glimpse of the Nismo 370z. Granted it was the "S-Tune", maybe they'll make a few tweaks before production, or over the next year?

yeah the S-tune kit was an add on and coexisted with the NISMO factory design. so there were two separate designs at the same time

the new NISMO Z we you saw friday is the done deal as you can buy it in 2 months time
