rtbiscuit Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 looks and sounds like the difference between a pre and post facelift 350Z, Quote
ChrisS Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Not sure about the snow plough, even though it's topical right now. Nice subtle arrse though Quote
kris Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I like this alot. I very much doubt I will see many on the road though. Quote

martinmac Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 It would be nice if Nissan got us involved in the launch in some way. Quote

taras Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 you would had thought they would have scrapped the spoiler and come up with something better by now. Quote
S1 HNK Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Take off the kit and i'd love one. I'd feel a bit of an idiot driving one with all that kit on though 1 Quote

Siman350z Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Just saw this over on pistonheads. Wanting something special to change up from my 350z (and can't quite stretch to the GTR) looks like this could be it! Can't see a price though? I think it's sold at around a £5k premium abroad? I looked at importing them and the costs were insane! So glad they're bringing it here Great looks although anyone thinking that asrse is subtle...?! Quote
Ekona Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Too little, too late IMHO. Styling is better on the back than the front, but each to their own on that. The steering wheel is a lovely touch, I'll give them that one. Does the suspension need to be any harder though, especially on UK roads? I would rather have seen Nissan remove weight as well as add a little power as that would transform the driving experience, but I guess they want to stay away from that for now. The one thing that worries me is the price: If it's a £5K premium elsewhere, will it be £10K by the time it gets here? I really hope not. This needs to be the same price the 370Z is now, and the normal 370Z needs dropping a smidge. Quote
Dynamic Turtle Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Is an 18hp increase, louder exhaust + a few bits of plastic trim really enough to tempt people away from a 2009 model with 20k on the clock for £17k? Would you pay a £20k premium for the Nismo bits? Not sure I would... Quote
philb1965 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I like it a lot, I think all the cosmetic changes work well. The price will be the killer, if RRP on a standard GT is around £35k then I can see this being between £40-45k...ouch. Quote
Kev T Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Doesn't do it for me either, as someone else stated too little too late. Quote
spursmaddave Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) I think I would rather save the £10k possibly and just get a standard 370 and put a better exhaust, intake, shocks and an upRev IMO you are just paying for the Nismo branding Edited January 22, 2013 by spursmaddave Quote
