If you get a Nismo you better mod the ish out of it and drive it like it was meant to be driven.

who knows, i suggested it to the product planner that they make a nismo of some sort as the top of the line Z option for the next generation car. it wouldnt take away anything from the current ones because it wouldnt be the 350z nismos. i would love to see nismo cars have a constant presence in the line up
but yeah looks like the current nismo as it is now is over with, kinda cool if you ask me

Yes, sadly the nismo will depreciate like any other Z.
For the most part, I think the Nismo was introduced to boost sales in the last years of production of the Z33. Pretty much common practice if you ask me.

When I started this thread I did not think that the nismo Z's would go up in value in two years, but over a time period of 10 yrs or so, nismos are still the best looking Z's IMO. And I think they are a great car to upgrade or to keep them stock. I was more curious if any of you heard that the build of the nismo Z's were over for the USA, which now I have the answer to be yes, so enjoy the nismos!!!!!!!

The only thing I would hope for is the Nismo possibly leveling off at a higher price point compared to other Zs in a few years, but other than that, I wouldn't expect much.

Do you buy one to worry about depreciation and what they are worth later on? I would buy one to own it and drive it like it should.
Worry about depreciation later on. A car is a bad investment, but if you are putting money down for something you want and like, then who cares about worrying about that stuff?
Of course, it's going to be a factor later on. I don't know about you all, but when my car is paid off in about a year, I'll be making damn sure to keep it. I'll go out and get a full loan on something else. It's my baby and it has almost no miles. 35K on a '04? It sits in the garage in the winter and is all over the roads in the summer.
I plan on keeping it that way. Worry about tickets, not next years going price.

Seriously though I just don't understand the people that think it is an investment.
