Having just bought an automatic performance, mixed feelings but good. I would have bought this one if I could, but not out yet and will be a while to get this one let alone the current model.

Digging those Recaro seats, hope they are comfortable for taller drivers. Now comes the game of trying to hunt down a silver one at msrp

Nissan is seriously copying Toyota at this point.

Toyota releases the manual version of the Supra with a new color and sure enough, the Nismo Z is revealed shortly after with a very similar color.

But Nissan already had a similar color called boulder gray.

Yeah that looks like stock to me. Even if something has changed, the Y-pipe still looks like the sub-2" one on the regular models, so it's not ideal. They really should have at least installed the Nismo exhaust by default (the one made by Borla).

Strongly hinted at and confirmed by the manufacture at a press release are two completely different things. I am going off press releases since they are the only true confirmation that its actually happening.

Ok.. boulder gray has been available on the Z since launch.

Well, per Tamura-san:

"Tamura-san explained that Nissan explored the idea of a manual Z Nismo, but the problem was that it would've actually been slower than the base Z.
"To be honest, base car with two pedals [is] faster than Nismo with three pedals," Tamura-san said. "Base, 400hp; quicker than Nismo."

"Time is not important," Tamura-san said. "But some people said Nismo must be quicker than base."

Did anyone tell him one way to make the Nismo faster would be to have more than 420 hp?

I love the Nismo. Will definitely be getting one in a couple years, to join alongside my 370 6MT. They copied the Akebono logos I have on the 370's brake calipers. I like the Nismo front bumper, but the straight line across the front of the bumper slightly clashes with the bottom of the curved headlights, but it's not a big deal. Love the Rays wheels- same 10.5" width at the rear as the Nismo wheels I have on the 370- I'm running 275's up front and 295's at the rear. I would be happy getting it up to 450 hp with a few AMS mods.
