It does not cheapen it, in fact it give it more brand recognition led by the Z and the flagship GTR. Most of you guys don't even have a Nismo so why would you make an issue out of it? Also, let's not go crazy comparing Nismo with the M's or the S'. Apples and oranges in my opinion. Underneath the red lines, slight suspension changes, and tuning differences, it is not far from the car it is derived from. It is well documented that Nismo's are not far off performance-wise. Different on the eyes, yes but from a performance standpoint, not really. Same could be said with the GTR Nismo. Not much faster than the next one below it. I'd say just chill and let it roll.
Well said. Nismo, in my eyes, is a marketing gimmick given its performance and content ratio compared to a Sport package Z. Once they start playing in the M league (ie. Completely differentiating from the other models) I will pay more attention.

As a side note, anyone ever notice that Nismo owners never refer to their cars as a 'Z'? It's always a 'Nismo'. Cracks me up.
