First Supra vs Nissan Z side by side direct comparison look

[vb22]

I don’t think $40k is a bad price for the Z, the problem is how ill-equipped it is. If it came with an LSD and reasonable wheels/tires then sure, but as it sits it pretty much forces anyone who cares at all about performance to either dump $5-7k into it immediately, or spring for the performance model for another $10k. If the performance model was $45k it would be a reasonable option, but at $50k PLUS $3k for paint and floor mats you’re at the same price as the 3.0 Supra but with the Z you get much, much less for that money.

The $43.5k 2.0 also comes with an open diff. I think you can get an aftermarket LSD for the 370Z for around $2.5k installed. Yeah, the 3.0 vs 3.0 the Supra is probably the better buy, but we were just talking about the base model.

I couldn't read much more of the Z forum or else I would've gotten an aneurysm. And there was too much on SupraMkV. I have other things to do lol.

Are people still on the whole open diff base Z... but zero complaints about the same issue on a more expensive 2.0 Supra.

255 hp with 275 width rear tires vs 400 hp with 245 width rear tires. An open diff is a much bigger problem on one of these than the other.

Most people are just going to daily drive the crap out of both of these things, but if it's such a big problem then it's a good thing the Z is priced way low so people can get some wider rear tires.
