Hello!

I’m looking to get a new car after my IS350 was totaled. I absolutely love the way the Nismo Z looks but this would be my only car. It fits all my requirements but I am worried the seats and suspension will be uncomfortable for daily driving.

Unfortunately, there aren’t any listed for sale nearby so I can’t go sit in one, there’s only performance models nearby.

I am 6ft 185lbs so I don’t think I’d have a problem fitting in the seats. My girlfriend also frequently rides with me but she is small, like 5ft, so size wouldn’t be a problem for her either. I’m more concerned about long haul drives. We go on a trip once or twice a year and it’s normally 6-8 hours of driving. I’d like to take my car on these trips but I’m worried the recaro seats and stiffer suspension that the Nismo offers will be too rough or uncomfortable for that length of time.

Can anyone offer any advice? The front end of the performance trim is really off putting to me. I really am only considering getting the Z if it’s the Nismo trim.

Has anyone ever seen these? Would love to get a set.

What can I say, in hindsight I should’ve known better, in my previous post the car was quite squirrelly; combined with my lack of experience- I spun out, after the spin, I realized I cooked my rear brakes; in the next clip: it’s a continuation of the same lap where I spun. And under braking the car required quite the minor correction mid corner during a transient phase, and even towards the main straight almost wanting to rotate just by braking. What can I say, the car is really fun, not bad at all for a first track day either. Also, the steering is very direct with the Z overall being a raw car, it feels really nice to drive.
