kills me to hear you talk about them like that. everyone has different tastes and obviously if there is physical limitations for you to be able to drive it, then that is also a game changer. Personally, I think they look great. Like a modern take on the original Z-cars... with a bit of the essence of the GTR. Interior is vastly improved upon vs the 350 (minus that one funky gauge). It has the power the 350 should have had, and it has the fancy rev match on the 6spd. If my car was near stock, I would think I would have already traded it in on one.

This is basically my opinion as well.

Is anyone else a fan of the 370 Nismo? If I decided to go with a 370 I'd seriously consider the Nismo just because I love the body kit on that car....it gives it a much better look imo compared to the regular edition. I'm not as impressed with the performance "upgrades" on this Nismo...but I love everything else about it!

MSRP of 33.6k vs 40k for the nismo.
You get roughly the same wheels. with the nismo, you get a few hundred bucks worth of braces and struts, a 1200 buck exhaust, and a body kit. To me, it isn't worth nearly 6500 bucks more. If you are in love with the kit, then it might be worth it for you

Lol, I don't know where to start with this one!
In end, I am most upset w enthusiasts, not the Co., they're the ones building the GT's to race.....GTR's run gran prix's elsewhere, and can't be price point with all the Ferrari challenge cars present.
Plus RX8's just dominate....**** there was even Mini coopers and miatas in the continental race yesterday....saw 350 two years ago, they were selling it as KONI challenge race ready last year on forum.

I'm not entirely convinced that one could purchase an authentic Nismo body kit, including the rear spoiler, get it installed, painted etc.... and really save that much. I suppose it's entirely possible you may save a grand or two, but you also wouldn't have to worry about fitment issues, warranty issues and other headaches. When you factor in the other small upgrades, it's not much of a price difference ![dunno](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/dunno.gif)

And tru, I am very glad they turn out what they do! However, next years I see a Leaf or cube modded and gutted racing continental and I am going to lose it!
Really nice Z's of all years, and full GTR conversion, like one back home I know would draw some criticisms,lol.....
It kills me that with so many nice cars, its easy when ya can drive em all year, btw saw my first new sls Merc today....it is F'n ridiculously cool. Guy lit it up for me at least too after chatting, and struggling to close his doors. Apparently, the deloreans realized that gullwings need straps to close doors!
Lol
