they should bring it back

I didnt mind this more lip spoiler look when seeing it in person but I do miss the Wing look for the NISMO Z has I loved the one on my 350z NISMO
the front of the car has a more subtle less extended look so I get where they can be more reserved in the back but I think a wing is a big part of the NISMO DNA this car is missing



maybe they can borrow from the N attack Package on the NISMO GTR





Or if that isnt enough NISMO GT3

These belong to Nissan. Each review you see online will have TN plates until it is released to the public. Also, these are the same plates that came on all the Nismo vehicles at ZDayZ. Nissan must have some cool facility in TN where they store all the cool cars lol.

Fairly decent numbers:
DIMENSIONS:
Wheelbase: 100.4 in
Length: 170.5 in
Width: 72.6 in Height: 51.8 in
Curb weight (C/D est): 3400 lb

PERFORMANCE (C/D EST):
Zero to 60 mph: 4.6 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 11.3 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 13.1 sec
Top speed: 155 mph

No quicker than the 2009 test of the regular 370 though. The looks of this car with 400+HP and 350lbs TQ would simply kick ***.

Your mission gentlemen, should you decide to accept it, is to locate and permanently relieve Nissan of these demonstration cars for your own personal use. As always, should you or any of your forum be caught or killed, this poster will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This post will self-destruct in 370 likes. Good luck.


***EDIT***
Ya know... I had two questions.

Does anyone know if the new NISMO ground clearance is still the same (i.e. same number of inches off the ground)? Also, does it still have a "front diffuser splash shield" to help protect it from scrapes?

Still amuses me that the NISMO is heavier than the ordinary version. You'd think Nissan would have somehow found (non-price increasing) ways to shave some pounds after all these years.

After reading the Car & Driver article and examining the pictures this is the first Nismo I would consider over the 370 with a spots pkg. The 2016 could have some different architecture as well as the Q50 platform.

They really didn't say anything in the article other than they felt the 7AT is dated and that the manual option would be better in the Nismo.

I don't see what in particular is in the C&D article that sells the NISMO over a Base/Sport, personally. Other than the aesthetic changes.

That's the selling point for me. I like the more subtle changes on the 2015 and it's got the touring + nav interior now. If this was out when I bought my 2010, I would paid the difference between my loaded Z. My issue with the prior Nismo was that it commanded the price of a touring/Sport/tech package Z with the base interior, minimal options and (to me) boy racer styling.
