Well a Nissan 370Z Nismo is £37k over here, if you imported the Stingray from the States it would be £42k + shipping and shipping insurance... not much in it really. Don't know anyone who has paid anywhere near 37k for a Nismo, but what I do know is that it's RHD, and a friend paid £5k for shipping on an older Vette for a project, pretty sure there would be something added for import tax as well, so that would be around 50k, at best, for a car that would be very difficult as a daily, unlike our Nissans. Not difficult that is it? or we would all be driving them if they were that inexpensive and brilliant, which of course, they're neither.

Unless I'm missing something, the basic model is $57k , a basic 370Z is $28k or so . Nice motor though. Pete A 370z I saw was $64K .CAD Admittedly fully specced, but still the base Stingray would be better equipped. Yeah, I misread the basic price it's actually $52k and a fully loaded 370Z is $38k so not a big a difference as I first thought. It's also Considerably cheaper (and faster) than The Cayman S which is $63k. Pete $14K is still a lot, forgot the op is in Canada, I guess $14k Canadian is not worth as much

Having just been out in a GTR track pack version, I doubt if this Vette could even begin to cope with the handling that the GTR offers. A rhd version . That's the funniest I've read all day. As for the OP alluding to the same cost as a 370, that's the second funniest thing I've read all day, all year actually

Can't remember all the options,fastest, shortest, avoid (it wasn't on this to avoid M ways was it?) etc, was it the newer part of the A1M? The earlier Connect Premium, didn't have postcode search option, don't know if that's the case or even relevant. Have a good root through the menus though.

It's only money that the little leach b'stards would spend on mushrooms

553bhp & 465 lb/ft 370Z Full Amuse with Greddy Twin Turbo
The G Man replied to Adrian@TORQEN's topic in Member Build Projects
Except the non Amuse wing, that#s what makes it IMO -
That's my point £2.5k without fitting or paint, but it would be tempting, now Mrs G has had a drink
-
Nope, I think, depending on your requirements, ie rear/forward sensors, 34.8k is the best you will do, trust me on that.

Then me n Mrs G decided to have a game of cards, which was a good laugh, then the red wine went done! (plenty of white left), decided to have a post dinner drink. I have been drinking mostly Disarano, Mrs G, Glayva, both on ice. Then we decided to get some music on, Smash Hits, Lets party!! We've been bouncing about the living room since track 1 Things are looking good for later

I e mailed Amuse direct and got ZMANALEX on the case re an Amuse, still waiting!! (not ZMAN's fault, we both came up against the same "firewalls"), no replicas, only originals please ' For a Zed, read Nismo as spot on

It's not just the HP, increased torque, better suspension set up and the bodykit, which will be wanted by most future 370 owners, especially the wing. Then there'll be the way that this is delivered. I hear what you're assuming as a premium, but I spent £3k on my 370, that gave me a bit of sound (bearing in mind not many owners have heard the Nismo yet), around the same gains on HP and torque, through an Uprev and "performance" filters, then there was a few quid on suspension, that to be honest was harsh on UK roads and some mudguards, this all added up to be around the same price I paid new that you can get the Nismo version and mine still looked like a stock 370. Then there are the wheels, well there's already huge interest in them on here, with Octet actually buying a set. The offsets are bigger, may negate the need for spacers that a stock 370 requires to give it a better stance and the rear wheels are also wider. Gents, all the bodykits and "performance" mods, turbo or supercharger excepted, at HUGE cost, will not give you any more than a stock Nismo. Then there's the right to correctly display a Nimo badge and not a fleabay purchase. Also, Will, you naughty boy, the roadster came at a premium also over the coupe, and, I'll say it again, it doesn't even have a roof

Can you explain this? What a statement. Really using your ability to debate here. Can you not see something wrong in this statement? There used to be a car that was blue, had three wheels and was inherently dangerous, that was deemed ok for the disabled, mind you, we were still sending children up chimneys then. Read the whole thread please! I have, your first post states it, can you explain it, what about rounding up disabled people and putting them in a special, easy to recognise camp? Then we could all recognise them. Buddy, whether you like it or not, your very first post IS offensive, how you can continue to try and justify your position is beyond me, you should be banned!

Maybe you should read the whole thread then! Too disgusted in the first page to bother buddy, but hopefully, you'll neither need or be labeled in your car, whether mentally or physically challenged, I stand by my post.

Haven't read through al this thread, was really disgusted on the first page, the lack of understanding of the mobility system, labeling their cars with a big disabled sticker etc is astounding. There should, however, be labeling for retard knobjockeys that, obviously have an IQ of -6, that way we could spot them. F*cking makes my blood boil, hope none of the dissenters become disabled, or maybe they deserve to be! Arsholes!!

Isn't there a thread discussing the use of the Nismo logo on non Nismo cars, also, aren't there a lot of Nismo "wannabe" 350's out there, there certainly is a lot of merchandise from our traders with the Nismo logo. Oh well, much the same response as when the 370 came out I guess, similar reaction from the RX8 chaps when the PZ/R3 came out, suppose it will always happen, no matter the marque. Bit green eyed IYAM.
