The 5.0 is a great car, but let's face it, it's nothing to get excited over when you see one down the road. It's definitely got the grunt, but choosing a car you like is more than just picking the most powerful. I think the Nismo is definitely unique and one that will someday become a collectable. It's a solid car and very few built overall.

I look at it as an opportunity to try something new and if I don't like it I can always move on lol. So far the leather interior of the mustang and the throaty growl of that v8 seem to best the 370 for me (at least until Nissan decides to put out the z35) plus as I don't autox or track the nismo the pros for owning one (like the handling ) seem under utilyzed where as I can use that v8 acceleration at any stop light I want. The z has been an awesome car but maybe I'm just due for a change.

i think that pretty much wraps up the entire thread. time for change... regardless of good or bad or emotions hurt or not. time for change.

I could be wrong but I would assume that a Nismo would hold much better value than a 5.0 mustang after a while. Sure is ALOT more rare.

Either way, good luck man !

go home tell your gf. time for change. :hello: bye ..lol

I would not trade to keep, but if you can get an extra 5k for the mustang, sell it and get another nismo!

Yeah but I mean no one's in the market for a nismo with 80k miles tho. On paper it's worth much more than what the market will allow for.

To answer your question. Nissan has pissed me off a little with how they respond to warranty claims on prone-to-fail OEM parts like the ESCL and CSC. But obviously not as much as you. I would never trade my Z for a Mustang :twocents:

:(

I'm already out of warranty. Hopefully this doesn't happen to me. Or I get rid of it before hand.

how are you out of warranty?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it 3/36k? or did you mod it?

The final straw is when they scratched the front up and didn't want to pay for it. $2600 out of my pocket and I was done with the GTR.

I did buy and love my Nismo. The deal was to good to pass up, $36,000 for a 2013 with 1800 miles. I just don't take it to Nissan.

:confused: You're blaming Nissan for that? Sounds like a douchebag dealer problem to me.

But, yeah, $36K for a 2013 with only 1800 miles sounds like a steal to me! :tup:

:iagree:::iagree::iagree:

That dealer is horrible and I don't blame Nissan, not for all of it.

I do think of all the high-end dealers I've felt with the have a lot to be desired. You may think Nissan = high end

When you are spending a 100k+ on a car you'd like to be treated like a human being. I don't expect them to wash/detail it like BMW, Infiniti, Audi .....but some customer service would be nice :tiphat:

Think about how much we paid for, love and baby our cars. All I'm saying is some customer service (love) would go a long way

I just wish they would treat our cars like we do.
