Nissan only delivered 500 of them in 2Q2023 in the US. At that rate, they could make every one of them some type of special edition.

That probably applies more to Infiniti than Nissan.

Nissan at least updated a few of their cars recently

I cant even recall what Infiniti has that isnt a million years old in car ages.

Is this NISMO any less NISMO than the previous NISMO Z's?

The Z was never on our radar, but I just hit the Nissan website -- curb weight of about 3500LB! Wow, and I thought the original 240Z was a pig...

240Z was a decent amount lighter-weight than your avatar pic, anyway! And 1200 lb. lighter than the current monstrosity...

Nissan shoulda teamed up with Toyobaru and made a short-wheelbase 2-seat version of the Ft86 and dropped an NA V6 in it! That woulda been a proper modern Z forrealz...

'update' is somewhat relative. this new z is essentially just a facelifted 370z, which was a facelifted 350z.

the gt-r's newest addition in the last 10 years has been DRL led strips in the bumper, and a major bump in the msrp.
