Disappointed that this will be the new look of the nismo. Where is the lip??

Basically a base model tacked with a new kit. And the changed the fangs to a catfish 'stache..

I do like the sides though!

I'm confused. The OLD Nismo was a base model with a kit on it...but slower :-p

This doesn't look like a nismo. It looks more like an updated 370Z + Sport package. Nismo should keep the wing and protruding splitter like the 350 and 370 nismo (still updated of course). This is what they should have come out with in '13!! Not sure why they couldn't have done a simple reflash to squeeze out even just 5 more hp.

I just feel like it's any ordinary Z that's fixed up good, it doesn't feel like a Nismo to me. They should've gone with a more aggressive look, don't get me wrong it's really nice and I like it but I think this would've been better if it was a 45th Anniversary

All in all, I like it better than the 2014 refresh (though it's weird they re-refreshed a year later...), and indeed, the rear decklid spoiler is a bit different than the sport pack one -- looks to me to be more integrated into the trunk; more of a "duck tail" design than the current sport pack offering.

All in all, I like the changes -- the new body kit, bells-and-whistles, and particularly the less artsy-fartsy wheels -- also like the addition of the 7-speed (sorry. haters) and nav options (hell, why not?).

It's even got the world famous "butt plug"

I am curious as to the gearing differences, and whether it is for both the MT and AT -- was that posted?

EDIT: Yep - Final drive ratio: 6-speed manual 3.916 (versus 3.692 standard 370Z)
7-speed automatic 3.692 (versus 3.357 standard 370Z)

Sweet! Now I want their trans!! How impossible would it be to swap out the final gear?

I would have liked more power, but either it aint happening (as with the Q60) or we really are getting something new and exciting for 2016...
