As a daily, would you go for a manual trans or the Nismo auto?

The dealer mark-up is probably ridiculous on it so far, I'm guessing.

All I know is that I enjoy driving a manual much more than an automatic. I am presently having more fun driving a "17 manual nismo that I bought to replace my '16 manual nismo than if I'm being honest as opposed to the '24 nismo auto I have. When the manual nismo is available I will be trading the auto in and keeping the 370 manual.

You can buy the OEM ‘stickers’ from the parts dept but probably expensive:
Heritage Edition Racing Stripe
PART NUMBER: T99D1 6GP0G
Heritage Edition Side Stripe
PART NUMBER: T99D1 6GP0H

With those numbers you can check if they would sell & ship them. Here’s the Install Instructions

The color I can’t help you with, probably a wrap could get close …

I was mainly just wanting to look at real life dealership pics and the "TWIN TURBO" badges.

For anyone who wants to know, I looked it up & here’s the approximate prices:
Racing stripe $300
Body stripe $150

You can buy the Twin Turbo - but it’s also just a decal. Maybe someone will make a real metal badge. I would buy one.

Kraft Nissan in Tallahassee has/had it. They tried to sell it to me last week when I got my oil changed. It's a pretty paint color, but I didn't buy the car for the paint.

The car isn't listed on their website presently. I don't know if it ever was.

Just easier right
Yes just makes sense especially if you’re using it for a date night car with the wife that gives you an option of being able to hold her hand as all cruises around. More comfortable.

I missed out on getting a fully modded manual one but have found a new manual release in a colour I like am I'm struggling again haha

Just how much suspension work would it take to make the manual feel like th Nismo I wonder...

Thanks for ur opinion on auto also I'm strongly considering it still

I drove a Z Nismo yesterday and it felt like a complete junky mess, don't know why but my best guess is the guy who's been driving it has made it learn his weird habits?
