Oh, man, I hope the Nissan dealers have sold all the leftover 350Zs already.
Because once you drive the new 370Z, there is no going back.
The 350Z was nice and all...apart from a seriously cheap interior...but this...well, wow.
332 horsepower. 270 pounds per foot of torque.
A six-speed manual transmission.
18 inch wheels.
An interior someone spent time and money on.
That's the standard stuff...that comes with the $29,930 base price.
The one I drove for a week (and seriously considered hiding when Nissan came around to pick it up) had Chicane Yellow paint ($500: see photo above), carpeted floor mats ($115) and the Sport Package (SynchroRev Match manual transmission, viscous limited slip differential, 19 inch RAYS forged wheels, upgraded P245 and P275 tires, front chin and rear spoiler and Nissan Sport Brakes for $3,000).
Total price, including $695 destination charge:
$34,240.
Oh, sign me up already!
I haven't wanted a Z like this in 30 years. And it doesn't hurt that while you're rocketing across the universe (or so it feels), the EPA says you're getting 18 miles per gallon in the city and 26 on the highway.
The Z lost its way for a couple of decades...but it's all the way back now.
