The Nissan 370Z Nismo Is NOT Outdated and Overpriced

I still love mine, really want the Supra and sometimes think about trading the Z in BUT I remember BMW... the Supra is nice but since I plan on keeping my cars I can’t justify the maintenance on it/ depreciation.

Glen Ishoy That’s Awesome!!! Definitely an amazing car 🙌🏼

[@paulg.9498]

As a mechanic, I have to say that when you really look into the spec and build of these Z’s they are well set-up. The engines are proven to be reliable (VQ37VHR), the 6 speed manual is a close ratio short shift with rev matching. It’s has all aluminium engine cradled in an aluminium engine subframe. All alloy double wishbone suspension, carbon tailshaft and decent quad and double piston Arkibono brakes from Japan - all good stuff. For an N/A v6 it’s not bad considering it’s always compared to V8s which it’s not. The Z’s handle well and provides some old school fun. Yes they are getting on in years but when you put it on a hoist you can see where the engineering is in these cars - they are well packaged and worth a look as a good second car. I also noticed they are still Made in Japan! Good to know!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks for the comment! I would definitely agree with how they are designed it's a great car! A lot of fun to drive, reliable and so many options for tuning and mods!

[@wynfilms3565]

You're right. For what you get, Nismos are ridiculously overpriced

[@wtpiv6041]

Yeah you would think they would add some options or lower the price but they haven’t. They must sell well or something otherwise it doesn’t make sense as a business decision.

[@nicholasperkins4655]

The normal 370z is one of the best values. If you know a tuner that is good with Nissans it is better to save 17 grand.

Can you comment on maintenance costs of Supra, vs GTR vs 370z? I suspect the 370z is very low maintenance vs the other 2.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5ysl6yNgJp5lac Here yah go!! Honestly they are all cheap to own. The GTR is actually easier to do the oil change on then the Z. Less bolts in the under tray. Both the Z and GTR can have an oil change for about $35 if you get oil on sale and DIY. GTR will be slightly more for brake pad and rotor replacements. Maybe an extra $1k over the Z. Transmission fluid and diff flush will be like $450 on the GTR vs around $250 on the Z. Every 35k miles. The Supra takes the most oil at 7 qts. So it'll cost maybe $80 for me to do it myself once the free toyota changes run out. But overall nothing outside the norm.

I bought a 2012 370Z with 1400 miles on it 8 years ago and I have had no problems whatsoever. I love my Z and I like old school. I have auto trans and the paddle shifters are great. The only issue I have with my Z are the brakes.

Oh sweet! The one I drove with the automatic didn't feel too fast to be honest. If yours in a manual it should be pretty sweet! Your car is worth some crazy money right now tho with everything.

[@Selrisitai]

People saying it's "dated" are like progressives: They think that _all_ change is good change. I think that they changed exactly what needed to be changed, and the changes they made would have been good changes regardless of year. What changes? Namely, the body styling. It's sharper and less rounded than the older 370z, which in my opinion takes it from a "really nice-looking sports car" to a head-turner on par with the modern Corvette Stingray. Not quite that cool, but in the same ballpark. More importantly, I LIKE analogue. I like the hydraulic steering. I _like_ the quaint LEDs and the driving-focused lack of tech. GOOD. I don't want my car telling me to stay in the lanes, telling me if I can still back up, or distracting me with ten different screens. Don't get me wrong, I love bells and whistles, but the types of bells and whistles these days are intrusive and disruptive. They don't enhance the driving experience, they _molest_ it with safety features that try to remove the skill and attentiveness. Get out of my way and let me drive! So for my money, this is _exactly_ the car I'd want to buy.

I'll take the 370 since it's an actual Nissan, the Supra is just a rebadged BMW product and if I wanted a BMW I would just get one.

Eh not really. Toyota had just as much input as BMW. They co developed the B58 motor and the entire platform. Just made more sense to build it at BMW then create a whole new Toyota Plant. And the Supra smokes this Z in all performance tests. Would have been nice to get a manual tho. But the new Z will be some good competition!

[@Blackdawn80]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I never said the BMW running gear was inadequate. I simply said that the Z is superior as it is a true Nissan product.

Some will argue production costs among other advantages like the Toyo/Suby 86.

[@josephcassiba263]

I have a tuned Audi TTS that does 0-60 in about 4.4 sec, but honestly I test drove a Nismo and it was more connected and fun. Also, more fun to drive around town with the low end grunt. My Audi needs to be over 4K RPM to access the power. The steering in particular was soooo much better than my Audi steering. Performance numbers are overrated and only tell part of the story. 370z is a great fun for the money proposition used. Plus the Recaros are absolutely the best seats I have ever sat in. I actually put Recaro Sportster seats in my Audi after driving a Nismo. However, the Nismo Recaros have a softer base and are adjustable, so they are more comfortable than mine.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh nice! Yeah the Recaro seats are fantastic! Best seats ever! And I think the lack of the front diff is what makes the steering so nice for the Nismo. Check out a A90 Supra! Good blend of both cars! Mine makes 450/560 to the wheels FBO and tuned. Crazy fun and sharp handling!

[@nard1000]

I couldn't resist just after watching Doug's video. Well played Bros. This video comes across as a 370z apologist video. That being said, i do appreciate the clarification on the spare tire. I remember C&D just torching the car because it couldn't compete in the lightning lap due to heat soak for the engine and massive fade in the brakes in warm up laps. This from the NISMO-take-all-comers version of the car. Hopefully, with the 400 coming and the divorce from Renault, things will be better going forward.

Said $35,000 then "around 30 grand" that $5,000 difference may not mean much to you but for many it's night and day. Me personally if it were 30 I might lean to it over an STI but if it is in reality 35 I'd probably go with the 2020 STI

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.

370z have so much potential. If you can drive it properly, they'll put up easy flat 13s or high 12s on a drag strip. Theyre amazing for drifting. Great for turns. And once you start tuning with RZG, Z1, RsEnthalpy, LimpMode, or Saul and using GOOD bolt ons... you'll easily be taking out NA v8s. Plus you can always just save up 5k-12k and get a single or twin turbo kit and start destroying supercars.

[@joeljeffrey9139]

You got to really like this car to consider it. I agree used values are better deals, but there are more modern sport cars around this price.

[@videomaniac108]

I agree with you completely; the Nismo, new, at $47K is not a good value. At that price you might as well pony up a few more bucks and get a low-mileage Cayman S. However, at the $30K price range it is an excellent buy if what you want is a purpose-built sports car without unnecessary glitz. I bought a 2019 370Z sports coupe 6MT new for about $34K and think it is a great value for the kind of car I like to drive. The fact that these Zs don't have all the latest and greatest electronic gizmos with all kinds of high-tech driver assist technology is a plus to me. Aside from the good power and handling, the appearance of the car is one of the best IMO. My car is an all-black car with some of the bright metal trim badging blacked out that I had a multi-step paint correction done on with a ceramic coating. The deep wet glossy finish and the smooth curves and aggressive visage make this car turn heads often. It ticks all the right boxes for me.

[@Kicks4lif3]

With the sport suspension and tuned exhaust, this baby is glued to the road and the paddle-shifting 7-speed dual clutch automatic transmission is flawless. This is a real driver’s car that handles like a 911 Porche at half the price. I wanted a Z since the 240 first came out, and I’m glad I waited for the 370.....it is spectacular.

[@Jekksolitude]

Fact is, Z doesn't need super technologies in it. Z is a legacy and a "feeling". Honestly you're right, Nismo edition is a bit expensive. I've taken the Sport Edition (everything the same as a Nismo, still a few aesthetics making it different from standard version). I only wanted to correct you in all modesty, but actually depending on which distance/speed you're talking, automatic isn't the quickest. Each gearbox being manual or automatic has advantages and disavantages. If you have the chance, go do some pulls against other Zs to compare and you'll see. :)

[@phillipwise940]

I'm looking at one in the UK. 2016 plate, less than 30000 miles on the clock at around £20,000. It's the 370z or a Toyota GT86 at about £20,000. Yes the car is getting a bit dated but you can pick up 2017 or 2018 model with very low mileage for £25,000 in the uk.
