Damn, Nissan is into dressing everything up into a Nismo. Can't wait for the Nismo Leaf, NOT!

Look at it this way: If they're putting the nismo recaro's, like the ones in the juke, in more random vehicles perhaps the chance of them coming up for sale when those cars get wrecked will go up? Frown upside down lol.

As long as the seats can be properly cleaned from any and all possible body fluids post wreck? For those of us who don't care much for the race seats, it really doesn't matter. I think that Nissan has lost it's focus and this move of branding everything as a Nismo just shows how blurry their long term vision truly is.

Well said.

Nissan Corporate Brain Trust: "we've got a couple excellent sports car platforms, one of which is remarkably accessible. And we have a premium brand capable of expanding on their performance capabilities. Do we develop those to their full potential, and address a few glaring issues, or do we ridicule the whole notion of them by putting racing stripes on a grocery getter and marketing that as their equal."
Tough choice.
Or perhaps they'll make a crossover-minivan version of the 370Z. The 370X, and 370Y ( as in: "why??"). LOL.

There's no excuse for their stupidity when they lose markets share investing the most money on the lowest selling vehicles they have. Electric vehicles.

Nissbitch sold 6,000 Z's yet the Z is unimportant

Nissbitch sold 3;287 leafs yet it's the focal point of the brand.... That's what makes Nissan bitches. They won't reap the benefits of leaf tech for well over a decade. Nissan can make a parts bin sports car with the right formula and change the game now.

But they too PU$$Y!!!
