'09 Nismo 370z

Amir87 · 04-09-2009, 03:04 PM

It looks amazing!

Anyone else think the rear spoiler kind of reminds you of 996 GT2?

The side profile is very 911esq in general, especially with the GT2-like wing on the back.

much nicer than the 350z,
but thats the nismo edition

ACZakka325i · 04-09-2009, 05:51 PM

Front end is the sucks. Otherwise it is pretty hot. The interior is SO fricken busy man, I'm glad I dont have ADD.

majin ssj eric · 04-10-2009, 12:47 AM

I definitely see a little GT2 in the rear and side profile. Not too excited by the lip but the rear 3/4 view is the shizznit! Light-years ahead of the 350Z Nismo.....

BForbes · 04-10-2009, 12:50 AM

I love the front of this car too!!

twenzel · 04-13-2009, 08:30 PM

I am planning on trading my 350Z in on this car... It's almost perfect! It just needs to be a little lower

E82tt6 · 04-13-2009, 10:11 PM

I saw it at the nyias, I love it!

frimmelnojerz · 04-13-2009, 10:29 PM

the front bumper/fascia looks incomplete. otherwise its a very easy on the eyes.

But I do like how it looks on this Nismo and yes- I would consider this one as well.
I testdrove regular 370Z. it sounds soooo good and drives like P-car. You point and car goes exactly where you pointed. Def. bang for the bucks sports car.

MotorTrend test say RX-8 is more precise steering that 370z, yet 370 makes up for it in power.
I don't care for Mazda, even though it is only $30k

c0nstant · 04-19-2009, 06:13 AM

the rear is a bit too flashy for me

JHFW89225 · 04-19-2009, 07:23 AM

i thought 370z was ugly in pic but then i saw one on the road today and im impressed. I think most modern cars nowdays looks better in real life than in pics

Epik · 04-20-2009, 12:13 PM

Yeah I do think most modern cars look better irl.

And yes the Nismo 370z > 335i. It does look clean and classic. I hate the normal 370z.

BoostedBMW · 04-20-2009, 04:53 PM

Wow, they really did a nice job with the Nismo version of the new Z... I'm impressed. What's the price tag? 40k?

ska///235i · 04-20-2009, 08:00 PM

its on Nissanusa.com go check it out

TK-421 · 04-20-2009, 09:34 PM

Small brakes...

I didn't see a price on there.

Brandon26pdx · 04-22-2009, 01:29 PM

I'd rather have a Sport/Touring regular one. It's pretty bad ass though.

cougfan335 · 04-22-2009, 02:08 PM

I really want to like this car, but I hate the headlights and taillights so much it is all I can see. Those rims and wing are good imo, the front lip need a little something.

yes, but if you think about it, there was a similar spoiler available for the 350Z...looks like Nissan just gave it a "face lift" that just happened to end up looking alot like a GT2 spoiler...here's a picture of the 350Z spoiler i'm talking about:

sorry, i don't have any pictures from other angles...pretty sick looking nonetheless.

Under the hood, Nismo breathed an extra 18 bhp into the 3.7-liter V-6, so now it pumps out 350 at 7400 rpm and 276 lb.-ft. of torque at 5200. With the added power, and no weight gain, the Nismo 370Z will be quicker than the stock car in a straight line. We expect 0 to 60 mph times of 4.5 seconds.

The car's handling has been improved, too, via stiffer suspension. Compared to the standard setup, front spring rates have been dialed up 15 percent, and rear spring rates increased 10 percent. There are also fatter anti-roll bars at both ends. Overall, roll stiffness has been increased by 15 percent, says Nissan, and the front and rear damping factors have been increased by 40 percent and 140 percent respectively. Although the ride quality will be harsher, the Nismo Z will undoubtedly take corners better and be faster around a racetrack.

The Nismo 370Z will be sold at Nissan dealerships starting in June. Although prices have not yet been announced, we're expecting something in the neighborhood of $37,000.

I was getting my Titan serviced Saturday and sat in a Touring on the floor. I had an 03' 350. Maybe it was just me but I could not get the seat/wheel in a nice position. 6'1"

mtla4 · 04-25-2009, 04:15 AM

Not for me sorry but its just too busy the vents on the back bumper+wing kills it for me. It looks like it came out from a video game. Pretty sad since the price is very competitive and that car is reliable but......wings like that are ok on gt2s,gt3s that car looks RI/$. However with the death of the M coupe, the M3 being overweight that car seems to be interesting to replace my 1er.
