The nismo being close to 70 grand is pretty much everyone's deal breaker.

Exactly. This should be the price of the performance trim, ~55k. And the performance trim should be the price of the base. Offering a sports car without a LSD in 2020s is dum AF.

Way way way too many non-compromised vehicles available in and around that price point even if the idea of spending $70k on a Nissan is somehow reasonable to you.

Very few people are paying MSRP on these. There are some going for 10k+ under MSRP. It's still a tad overpriced at 58k/59k, but way more compelling.

Definitely, my C8 with Z51, and mag ride was less than $70k.

Most people will complain about the price, but the second owner of a Z is usually the happiest customer. NISMO is a vanity badge for this car, and most smart people will stick to the normal Z and Stillen parts. Great video, Fairlady! Watched it on a big screen with headphones.

My friend built a 750 hp one. It's insane, gaps C8's. But he also dumped prob weeks of work and I think 13k into it on top of the hefty price. For those curious it requires Z1 turbos.

Great review! The Nismo’s biggest enemy is the normal Z it seems. Congrats to those who get one as it is definitely cool, but for anyone looking at a value proposition in the mix with performance and they like the Z, get the normal one. Thanks for a great video and your production value is on par with all the other channels I follow like EveryDay Driver, Straight Pipes, Throttle House and Savage Geese!

Another superb review, Alanis! The on-screen text used during the pricing segment was great (not that the previous one was bad by any means, but definitely an improvement). It would be awesome if you are able to keep the horn test as a recurring piece (or even segment) for future videos - especially if you ever get to drive a Mercedes 600 haha. Here's a question - if you had to choose one... Nismo Z, base C8 Corvette, Mustang Dark Horse or Toyota Supra?

Nissan's profit margin on these has to be astronomical, despite what they say I'd be very surprised if it weren't a heavily modified facelift of the previous generation that's been around long enough to buy alcohol. The point is, if they priced it where it should be they'd sell a few, but it doesn't make sense to buy one instead of other $70k sports cars

It's kind of hard to justify the Z line when the Mustang exists. Like compare the Z Nismo to a Mustang Dark Horse that starts at $63K. The Dark Horse gives you 500HP, way better technology, and way more customizing options. I love the Z's style but it's probably like $10-15K over the price that it should be.

Awesome Bevo t-shirt! (Hmm, I have family in Austin...gift idea? I better check out Homefield!) And it goes without saying, awesome review! As for the Z, I don't get what Nissan is doing. The current model has been out for, what, at least two years? Yet I've only seen one on the road the whole time--and I live in the Seattle metro, where you see lots of everything that's new and hot. Lack of availability? Or has Nissan's reputation dropped so much that people don't want to touch the new Z at its price (and, phew, $70K for a Nismo with an automatic only)? Well, it looks great, anyway.

The New Z is a good honesty checker. How much does it cost what is still a fairly large company to update and release a new sports car family solo? The FM chassis is now essentially bespoke to the Z, and its in limited markets. To make the thing their engineers want to make, and people want to lust over costs more than we’d want it.

Took 12 months and a week to receive after my order. Then the M2 came out and Nismo when I picked up my Z. Don’t regret it. Love the new Z.

Some of the additional changes to the Nismo Z are bushing changes and tuning of the 9 speed. The Nismo gets stiffer chassis bushings throughout, along with the 9 speed tuned and calibrated to allow for the faster downshifts in particular. Nismo doesn’t make as much sense as a buy if its only a street car, in this iteration all the changes were definitely focused on making it faster on a track, which based off several other testers results is a dramatic change.

It really felt like Nissan settled on a price and tried to add stuff on to justify it after the fact. But they added the wrong stuff like the automatic gearbox, and didn't add enough of the other stuff like bigger power boost to justify the massive cost premium over the standard Z or even the Z Performance siblings. Which is really awkward especially in an arena of a lot of awesome performance cars that have an even greater badge cachet over Nissan. I've no idea what the other cars like Porsches and such cost in the US by comparison as the UK doesn't get the Nissan Z in any form, but $70,000 already sounded like far too much, especially over the other Z models.

I do like how it looks. But the main problem is definitely the price. And despite being a, probably, good auto transmission, Nissan automatics have a bad reputation.

This thing is about as heavy as my CT4V Blackwing with all those weight adding items like power seats, ventilated seats, massage, and a rear seat LOL. I spent less on my BW with more HP, more performance, and more comfort. Seems like it may be a slow seller.

It's a nice throwback to the Z's of the past. But one of the things that the original 240Z was noted for was how affordable it was, and value for the money was something you got. The more recent ones seem to have ignored that lesson

Is it expensive? Yes it is, and so was the 300XZ turbo, they never were the affordable sportscar, if you want something cheaper buy a slightly used Infinity Q60 redsport.

Like the regular Z, the NISMO is a 2003 chassis carrying a 2014 drivetrain with a cut and paste interior from 2009. Everything about this car scream begrudging and unenthusiastic like Nissan really didn’t want to release this car but did it anyway as cheaply as possible by recycling from their parts bin. This car was already outdated and obsolete even before it was released, the NISMO is not even faster than a regular 3.0 Supra. No one wants this car, there are eight listed in my area and all of them are marked below MSRP. I’ve seen more Cybertrucks on the road that this or the regular Z. Anyone who buys this extremely disappointing overpriced car instead of the RS3, M2, Dark Horse, Cayman or C8 is an absolute fool. Even the CTR and ITS are much better cars for a lot less.

I drive all over Los Angeles County for work and I have never seen a Nissan Z on the streets. I have been seeing GR Corollas since back when they had $10k -$15k ADMs, which in my view says a lot about how overpriced the Z is.
