Happy 4th of July everyone! Hope you all have a good one! 🇺🇸🎆 Just to explain the situation, Nissan granted us special access to check out the Sport model but we only had about 20 mins and we weren't allowed to drive it since none of the other journalists did either. We included a clip of the Performance model with the automatic transmission because that is the one we were driving earlier on in the day. We hope you understand 👍

One big difference not mentioned is the Sport doesn’t have a limited-slip differential. That’s a big deal with a car putting down this much power to only two wheels. Disappointed that’s not standard. I mean, if the Civic Si comes with an LSD, every Z should too!

Maybe if your not getting on it or driving like Miss Daisy, then its ok. But most who buy this car WILL step on it and its going to spin one tire and not go anywhere. I will easily get the performance model because it has the lsd with big brakes and the 19x10's in the rear so i can put on some sticky 305's .... and it has the better suspension because i dont plan to lower it at all ...

It pretty comes down to if you plan on tracking your car. You won’t notice a difference around town if you have the additional cooling, bigger brakes and LSD, but on a race track you will absolutely need all of those parts. Most people will be fine with the base, even the vast majority of “auto enthusiast “ don’t hit the racetrack. Personally for $40k if you want to hit the track reliably your better off getting an Elantra N or BMW 230i M sport.

@@rambow70 all MOPARs are cheaper, faster, have backseats, and come with better features. When you go for the fully loaded one at 54k, you are now in the RS3, 240i, Supra, and etc. territory. The Z performance is slower than a Mustang GT. This car is a 370z with a new (weaker) engine. Everything in this car is identical to the car before it outside of the infotainment and the LCD display gauge screen.

@@ToneysReviews Right but there is probably some decent tuning potential in the new Z. I bet you can get 450whp with a tune in a 3,500 lb car versus 485hp in a scat pack that weighs 4,200 lbs. Also those mopar cars get terrible gas mileage. I think it's closest competitors are the mustang GT, 240i, and supra. RS3 and S4 being AWD might attract a different audience.

@@rambow70 Have you seen this MPG for this car? It's only 19.7 (man)/22(auto) combine, lol. This car fails in every cat. And you can not compare a "tuned car" to a "non-tuned" car. That not even a fair comparison because you can also tune the MOPARs. You are free to do what you want with your money, but at the end of the day this car is over priced. Let me ask you this, why spend 54k or 40k, when you could spend 49k or 57k on a BMW 240i and destroy the Z in every way?

I’m confused by this video. Title say says base model which is shown at the beginning of video, but during the test drive they are driving an automatic with the upgraded seats so is this the base model or the upgraded model? Also at the beginning of the video the car they were showing was a stick shift and the car they were test driving was an automatic.
