Your review is much more accurate and object than Doug's review. The 370z's design is GREAT LOOKING and TIMELESS. The 370z is a ROCK SOLID, WORLD CLASS SPORTS CAR!! INCREASE the HP & TORQUE if you want Nissan but leave everything else alone! The 911 continues to evolve slowly over time so why can't the Z follow the same philosophy? Don't change what ain't broke Nissan! Oh yeah, one more thing. The new Supra isn't Japanese and it's UGLY compared to the 370z. The Supra is totally OVER-STYLED and it's looks and price are simply RIDICULOUS.

Dude I appreciate the feedback I agree with you and funny enough a 911 is what I have lined up next! The slow evolution is a part I wish I had thought of for the video. Great comment 👏🏾 and lol on your Supra thoughts. Tell me how you really feel...but I can respect what you're saying for sure just something about it grabs me.

Former Porsche Owner here, Your review of power to daily usable is spot on, Always felt detached to the brutal acceleration of the turbo. The 3.7 is more linear and connected for the purist driver, Also, I have no clue why the G platforms sound better than the Zs but ask around and you must agree. Speaking of sound the VQ is a symphony anyone can get addicted to.

The 370z aged gracefully. It's simple, reliable, all around great performance car with a great engine. I think it's going to become a classic in the future. Many will disagree but that's how I see the 370z. I like that you can get an old school style sports car that you can still buy new. Nismo body kit looks great. Tons of aftermarket too. There's other newer sports cars out there for a similar price that has more performance capabilities but this car is still sexy.

It's actually a great car. It really shouldn't be priced above 40k, but you can find them very lightly used for a bargain. Engine is bulletproof, it's light, good viscous LSD, and tons of fun to mod. Plus the Nismo trim is extremely nice looking in person and rare to see when you're out. Great vid bro

Great condition, touring with leather seats, Bose sound system, and the bigger brakes, you can’t beat that. Plus this car is capable of more power with some bolt ones.

Great car review! I’ve always loved the 370Z but their expensive for what you can get from a daily driver. I’ve had a 2017 Ford GT and an Infiniti Q50S and for the same price used, you for a lot more out of the car. I do admit, the car is beautiful, especially in white with the red accents. I really wish Nissan would update the Z soon, really intrigued what improvements they’ll do, especially the interior and engine output. Keep up the great work man!

Yeah the 370Z is old and it’s outdated. Gotta admit that. It may not have the best looking interior like you’d find in a luxury car because it looks “old.” But if that’s what you’re worried about then you’re missing the whole point of the car in my opinion lol it’s a sports car. It’s got basically everything you need in modern day car. I find it funny when many people say it’s slow. It’s meant for the race track, not the drag strip. Japanese cars were never known to go fast in a straight line. Drifting and cornering was what it was all about. Go buy a Challenger 392 instead. Oh and one thing about the difference between the base model 370Z and the Nismo is the tuned exhaust. The Nismo has an H-pipe and the base has the Y-pipe. Not many people know that. I own a 370z and I love it to death nor do I regret getting it.

Nissan had red-suede/alcantara seat inserts and a red interior on the anniversary editiin before any other mainstream auto maker even considered red interiors other than 70's and 80's vehicles.. Love all of the "Z" cars..

Tried many different cars before buying slightly used and I can honestly say this is THE best value old fashioned sports car that they still happen to make that you can buy ! It’s very much like an MX5 (Miata) or Toyota GT86 on steroids ; ) Added a resonated short tail exhaust and now the sound is it’s most outstanding feature... makes a V6 F Type sound soft .... seriously ! A pleasure to watch your review LJ 👍🏻 As others have said these are rare indeed...... in the last quarter of 2018 here in the UK there were three hundred and forty three 370Z Nismos registered compared to five hundred and fifty four Ferrari 458s !!!

I think the Z ticks many boxes - and for a second hand sports car - while not a drag car - its still quick and the handling is also great. You either love the look (i do) or think its dated. I think its a really nice looking shape that you can do lots with. The lines are not as edgy as modern sports cars. Put a descent turbo on these and they are really quick - having said that, on the street or through winding roads NA zs are plenty powerful in my opinion. Anything that runs under 14 is faster than most cars on the road. The Z doesnt excel in any area - but does many things well.

I just bought a 2016 Pearl White NISMO with 7800 miles on it. Not a scratch and still smells new. Story from the dealer was a couple had 4 cars. Husband bought it for his wife and it sat in the garage and they only drove it occasionally. I was looking all over for the right car. Carmax had some duds. Almost paid to have one shipped to South Carolina from Texas. My local Greenville SC Nissan dealer bought this from the couple who was looking to just sell it. Ended up getting it with and 6 year extended warranty for 30,500 out the door. I absolutely LOVE IT. I had a 2005 350z Anniversary edition my ex wife took when we got divorced. Yeah I could have got a Mustang or a Challenger or something. I have loved Z cars since the 70's and never could get one. For some reason the Z car just speaks to me over other sports cars.

Nowadays new cars are just full of technology that isn’t even about the car and the driver anymore. And that’s what the 370Z is mainly all about. Yeah it’s 10 years old now and I think that’s okay because Japan likes to take their time. If you think about the R34 GTR, it came out back in the 90’s. The R35 didn’t even come out til 08-09. Same with the Toyota Supra, Nissan 300ZX, and Acura NSX. They were the iconic trophy cars. All these other car companies come out with a new car with new stuff, looks, etc. every other year, literally, like Mustangs, Camaros, Chargers, and Challengers.

I did exactly that about 5 months ago, ended up about $13k off with 8K miles on the clock (and it was a sport package). I saw lower mileage examples for about 10k off sticker but they were further away. I ended up with a local dealer that played nice and quickly came to the "lowest tier" of pricing that I had seen online or calculated.

Trying to decide between this or a mustang gt, I Love both body types but the z has always been my dream car since Tokyo drift. The z I Lovecuz of its simple compact sports car without all that tech shit on the dash. All i need is a decent radio and bluetooth and the power to pass almost anyone on the freeway.

Adan, This is a tough choice. To me it comes down to if you are comparing a 15+ Stang I would without a doubt go mustang. If you are talking about any other gen then Z beats those for me. The newer mustangs handle well enough and the power is nice. I am more of a Tuner style car guy and German cars so my style makes me a little biased towards the Z if you know what I mean!

I love the style of the 370Z and had one about three years ago. I have since moved into a condo in San Diego, and traded the Z for a Cadillac ELR which I love. I hate stopping for gas and going to the bank, so the Caddy solves one of those problems since it is electric for the most part. I would like to have a Z again since I only have a one car garage, and it would be a lot easier to park it, but I am not ready to give up the electric, and extremely low gas bills, and the Caddy is also a beautiful and extremely luxurious with the best Bose system I have ever heard. It doesn't look like Nissan is going to go electric in the new Z, and from what I have seen, I don't like the transition they have made from the 370Z style wise. Just my thoughts.

@@LJsGarage The ELR was a big flop for Cadillac since the back seat is almost useless, and they were charging a fortune for it around 80,000K. They only made a 2014 and 2016 model, and then discontinued it due to sluggish sales. They only made 3,000 of them altogether, so they are very rare. Once it was discontinued their prices dropped into the mid 25,000K range which is when I got mine. They are great cars if you can find one, but did not appeal price wise and space wise to a typical Caddy buyer.

I watched Doug's review, and what i didn't like about his review is that some of the features not in nismo are in the touring sport version. Heated seat controls, rear fog light, rev matching, noise cancelling audio, touch screen, and cool video input etc. The nismo is more race features and it opted out for some of the stuff that Touring which was purposely done. Its like saying the nismo doesnt have sunroof. Well... if you want that you can get the convertible.

I have driven sports cars all of my life and started out with Firebird Trans Am which I don't class as a sports car, but rather muscle car. I then got an RX-7 on their first shipment to the US and owned it forever. Three engines later I finally got a second generation 1986 RX-7 which was a big improvement in style and interior, but I was still not impressed with handling and acceleration. Then I switched to a 1991 300ZX which was very nice interior wise and for handling and power compared to the RX-7. Then I got a 350Z which was a very nice style and faster than any of my previous cars. It was when I bought a 370Z that I was most impressed than any car I have ever owned. When I got on the freeway after picking it up and stepping on the gas I couldn't believe how fast it was, and I also felt like it could take any corner at any speed. I then bought a Cadillac ELR after they were cancelled and came way down in price, and it is a beautiful car with an interior that is too luxurious where everything is touch controlled, but it is not fun to drive like the 370Z. I don't think the Caddy was a mistake since I saved a ton of money on gas since I owned it, and it will definitely be a collector car since only 3,000 were made, but I don't have the money to hang on to it. I moved into a condo which has a communal garage on the ground floor with assigned spaces so I can no longer plug in the Caddy to charge its batteries, so now I am anxious to get back into a 370Z, but I'm still waiting for prices on used cars to come back down a bit, since I would like to make an even trade or as close as possible.

The Z is a purist's sports car. The Nismo models are overpriced if you ask me, but calling the platform outdated really doesn't make any sense as a criticism because it never pretended to be anything more than what it is in the first place. What other car can you buy at the same price point that is RWD, manual, still has hydraulic power steering, and can be easily modded to 350 hp?

It all depends on what you're willing to put in it. If you like making power without spending $10-20k in aftermarket parts, stick to the Evo. Boosting an N/A motor comes with its own set of challenges and you will definitely end up spending A LOT of money if you want big power. If power is not your concern, you can always slap on better brakes, coilovers, tires, wheels, diff, and hoon the fuck out of it. At the end of the day it's still a very rewarding rwd sports car that will put a smile on your face.
