At first, it sounded like you traded a 370Z for a 350Z "Nismo". Then you mention trading an F150 for it? Which is it? Still have the 370? Sold it?

Click on the thumbnails for some nice pics.

Peace.
That isn't a true Nismo Z, it is just a Z with all the parts you can order from the dealership tossed on it. Went to Kelly Blue Book, couldn't find the S-Tune and R-Tune models in the lineup.

Regards, illjim69: It's a pretty rare beast. 20 a month, hand-built in Japan.

Nissan press release, 2005:

"Nissan Motorsport International – NISMO – specially developed a version of the 350Z to celebrate their win in the Japanese 2004 GT500 Touring Car Championship. It’s called the NISMO 350Z S-tune GT and is a road-going version of the race car. 20 are hand-built every month in Japan and the car driving at Goodwood, specially imported by Nissan Motor (GB) Ltd., is believed to be the only one in the UK. The S-tune has extended front and rear bumpers, side-sills and a rear wing modelled on the GT car. As if that wasn’t enough, NISMO five-spoke 19" wheels, racing stripes and pearlescent white paint will ensure this Nissan gets noticed in the Brooklands paddock."

Road & Track went to Japan for a test drive, here's a link:

Peace.

The S-Tune and R-Tune models were dealer options from what I can remember. Nothing special, just a bunch of Nismo aftermarket parts with matching decals thrown on a Z.

Still, OP's Z is not one of those.

I think the OP should have done more research. Would've saved him allot of time.

Still trying to figure out what happened to the 370z

GL with the build.

Sorry for the delay im getting married next weekend and ive been busy with the details....I had the 370z and f150 and got rid of both. The 370 was my daily driver, truck just sat. I owed 23 on the 370 and got 25 for it and got 9000 for the truck and paid 9000 for the 350. Hope that clears up some of the confusion.

What I have been trying to explain is that I never actually thought the Z was a Nismo, the seller was trying to sell it as one. I thought it was a funny story because its obviously not a Nismo and anyone who knows anything about the Z lineup can see that...I think its dumb when car lots don't even know what they have on the lot.

Eh finally had enough with the ole 350 it was boring to ride in boring to drive with a sub par interior...not even worth it to turn into a project. Plusi loved the push button start of the 370z....so i found myself a 2010 nismo 370z and once again all is right with the world. Hello from NISMO 0675
