No mention of the Nismo's big brake kit over the lower models, for shame. Very poor decision to have gone with the Dunlop rubbers, needed to be the Conti SC7, would have transformed the car as the tester wasn't best pleased with them. 

 

Wont be surprised if they are available for rent in Japan and US soon. Too much competition at that price of £66k Would love to give one a go. Just a shame how Nissan managed the production release of the car. No point importing a Nismo when an Emira is cheaper used with a couple of miles on. Lol...Nismo being quicker in a straight line. You bet Emira will hold value too.

Would be nice to even see a base model here in the UK in the flesh one day to see how it sits. Do really like the Emira, looks a class bit of kit tbf, would love one.

Once the market is flooded in Japan there might be. I think itll be a long time to see a car here. At £50-65k its not value for money. Just bragging rights. At 25-30k maybe lol.

 

At that price point M2, Alpine GT, TTRS, Emira, F Type R, 4 pot GTS Cayman. Many more cars cheaper than that Nismo with a few miles on. Lol....

 

New 86 with supercharger looks really good. At 1300kg and 350hp crank!

Definitely, I think the Z in 'Nismo' trim has always been a hard sale over what I offers to a GT model. A 400hp auto Z34.5 would provide better value on the used market at least. 

 

Still doesn't add up the list of sports cars you mentioned above which all pass EU emissions plus the Supra and Z4, however the new Z can't 🙆‍♂️

 

Had a pull with Scott's from DriveR old boosted GT86 with 340hp, I wasn't impressed.

The one in the background is being released in USA this year. Are you looking to get one with a few miles on it? @davey_83    

 

Apparently theyve only sold 2034 cars since 2022....Lol....That will keep prices inflated until production goes back to full speed end of the year and by then theyll have no choice but to offer heavy discounts as most people have moved on and hype is long dead. I can't see the Nismo selling huge numbers at $66k. Mustang and M2 will outsell it by 8 times.

 

They should position it at the same price as the previous proto spec..55k Or do what Nissan UK did place them very close to the GT model by couple of grand. Theyll do better numbers!
