At the price, I will still go with Nismo no question.

For looks, yes.
For the cockpit being a nice place to be, yes.
For practicality as a daily driver, hard to say.
For all out performance, not really.

That said, the Z is probably the better package.

They seem pretty evenly matched. Problem comes when the Type R gets a tune and more boost, good bye Z. :stirthepot:

More dickish dealer behavior....

and they wonder why we hate them....

Wow... I read some of the comments too. All this for a honda.

This type of publicity not only hurts the dealership but also blemishes the brand. Honda NA should definitely get involved as this reflects poorly on them by proxy.

Looks like the jalopnik article was updated. Girl got her car. Still, the publicity isn't doing any favors to this dealership.

Yes she got her car but only after people rightfully shamed the dealership on being dicks

I have yet to see one in person but my good friend who works for a Honda dealer here in SoCal took a pic of one that came in as part of their allotment, it ended up selling for $54,000 :icon17:

I am really not feeling the wheels at all and since they are so large and intricate Honda is forcing any dealer which has an allotment to purchase a $10,000 mounting machine just to be able to service this car tire-wise

He also says he was not impressed with the fake carbon wrap on most of the of the car including the lower valences on the car as well as the interior

One thing that also was interesting is that the first 3,000 cars are all numbered with an interior plaque so this is also helping to drive up the demand for the initial launch cars and should be sliding down as the hype of the car subsides and the next wave of cars hit our shores without the plaques

I would be willing to bet the buyers of the CTR are not cross-shopping a Z at this point. Maybe down the road as the price drops and the car becomes more available but not now. They are also completely different cars so it's not really fair to compare

My dealer just called me yesterday and said the 3rd buyer backed out and i was nbr 4. It was mettalic grey. Im holding out for white. Paying msrp...Wheels gotta go, i hate em and not feeling the fake carbon either. But other than that its cute. Will be a cute beater...better than my 14 Sentra i want to drive in a lake!!

And for that price is take a Nismo too...Check!

I saw one yesterday. Looks all rapey, err racey!!

Finally saw a press car with Distributor plates in Crystal Black color

Wow the aero is super aggressive in person, I dig it

I was too late to get a pic :(

Check this out, one press Z and a base at that.....Clash of Clans: 2017 Type R vs 2018 370Z vs 2018 STI

S2K vs FK8 CTR

So if your suspension and tires are better than this S2K's setup.. you should be able to pass.

S2K's lap times were superior. Not by much.

THis one is dead Jim, perhaps the first one to be wadded in the USA....

:shakes head:

I have seen 2 this week. 1 was with distributor plates aka press vehicle and the other was a brand new one in black.

Really starting to grow on me
