i absolutely love the 370z nismo wheels. i've never driven a nissan before and have a question for all you nissan fans out there: i want to order a 370z sport, but i want to get the nismo wheels. does anyone know if i have to pay for the stock wheels, or can i just pay for the car and the nismo wheels in one transaction?

otherwise it would be such a pain to have to sell the stock wheels on craigslist after the fact...

I think you will almost certainly need to buy the Sport car and have the wheels swapped for Nismo wheels (whenever they decide to start providing those, at whatever cost). The alternative, of course, is to buy the Nismo and take a bunch of crap off it. Unfortunately, the Nismo wheels are not an option for the standard car.

What manufacturers have done is reduced the number of available option packages. It increases their margins because a) they have fewer different cars to build, inventory, and sell - and - b) because if you want one or two things, you have to jump up to a whole new options package, which just increased their sale. Sucks for us - better for them.

Incidentally, the one thing I'll give GM credit for is that they tried to maintain a lot of flexibility in their options lists. They're learning their lesson from that....
