From the side and back it looks fine, but there was a Youtube video where someone captured the front end kneeling down and it really threw me off.
I was hoping the finished product would be different.
But at least with something like a DCT or ZF auto you can at least say it offers the most performance. In the case of the styling of the 400zx it's jut a really poor styling/design decision.
IMHO of course. Some of you I'm sure love it.
I just really hope that prototype car they have been showing off/driving around is not the finished product. Because the whole front end is just extremely boring/meh to me. At least in pictures. They have had this long to design something I have to think the finished product will look better...
Per inflation calcuator, $35K in 2009 would be $43,500 in 2021 dollars. Since the Z will likely be either a 2022 or 2023 model it will be hard to tell where inflation will be at. Maybe add another couple thosand.
I'm using the mid $30K's because those are the models most people buy vs a...
I think it comes down to goals. If you just want another 40+ whp and torque on a 21 with no other mods and using 93 octane a JB4 would be fine.
If you want to make 500+whp then it's probably best to get a 20 unless you are comfortable waiting for the ECU tunes. I think the JB4 can push close...
I'm getting a 21. If you drive it awhile and really want more power there are still options with something like a downpipe and JB4 and running ethanol mix.
I think custom ECU tuning will eventually be here, but that's another beast and another level of concern with it comes to warranty.

No, it's a small demographic compared to their other core buyers. Nissan has not sold more than 10K 370z's in a single year since 2010. It's small potatoes for them.
By comparison the Nissan Rogue will sell around high 200K units a year on average with some years being over 400K in the last...
If your going to mod it and don't care about the powertrain warranty I would be less concerned bout 3K miles vs even 10K miles and buy a car that has not been wrecked or beat on too much. I would find a good mechanic that knows BMW and pay to have a thorough inspection done.
I will believe all these too good to be true 370z rumors when I see it. Until then it's just speculation. Nissan is in the business of making money, they are not going to leave money on the table just to cater to a small demographic of enthusiast.
Well my .2 cents. I have had at least one manual vehicle in my garage since I was 16. I turn 50 in a few weeks. I currently have an SS1LE Camaro (6 speed manual) and I put in an order for a C8 Corvette (DCT only option). I finally came to terms that with modern transmissions that they are...
The problem is most people, by 2022, that have wanted a Supra will have one. And most people won’t want the $40K stripper car and no dealer will order dealer cars the first couple years this way. The average price will likely by high $40k range to low $50K and It will likely top out in the high...
If your a Z guy and liked the 370z platform and want a manual i would wait (assume Spring delivery next year at the earliest though).
My opinion. I don’t believe the 3200lbs weight rumor. I think its going to be neck and neck with the Supra.
I also think options will add up fast. Want...
Supra is built in Austria with BMW parts. From what I have read
If your trading a used vehicle the higher new price balances out or, you may come out ahead. In Jan 2021 my Camaro trade in was $39K (top). I just sold it for $49,300 which was $8K more than I paid brand new a year ago. I’m...
